And here is real code to illustrate what I ment, tested, and works:

(
var value, oldValue;
value=0; oldValue=64;
c=BCF(\r1, 1, [0,127,\lin,1,64], {|val|
	value = value + (val-oldValue);
	oldValue = val;
	if (val == 0) {
		c.value=(oldValue=2);
	} {
		if (val == 127) {
			c.value=(oldValue=125);
		}
	};
	value.postln;
})
)

And there you go, a software-based inifinite rotary.
