Actually, there is one more reason to do this.  You want your rotary to be
synced to application values, so that the first movement of the rotary does
not induce a click.  For instance, if I have a control with a range of 0..127
and a default value of 32, I initialize the controller the first time I setup
up things so that the first move of the rotary is correct.  If you dont do
that, the first move might suddenly jump from 32 to whatever the box thought
its default should be.  The same aplies when the control values
changes from within your application, you should let the fader box
know so that the next rotary move will not click.
