Similarly for other controllers: Make aftertouch, pitch bend, modulation wheel and ribbon controller effective on disabled parts so that they will not jump when used after enabling a part.
Frankly I'm not sure much, if anything, can be done about the 'jump' issue for a controller that has FIXED physical positions.

Unlike a rotary encoder the mod wheel has a physical limit at each end of its travel.
Same with an expression pedal, pitch bend and the sliders.
I addressed the question about the sustain pedal in viewtopic.php?t=20394.

Let me clarify what I meant for the other controllers: By other controllers, I mean:
  • Pitch Wheel
  • Modulation Wheel
  • Ribbon
  • Aftertouch
  • Foot Controller 1
  • Foot Controller 2
  • Foot Switch
Physically, these controllers exist once. Logically, they exist once per part. Similar to the sustain pedal.

Let's take expression (foot controller 1) as an example. Initially, everything is in sync. The foot controller is toe down, and all parts use the initial value 127. I want to slowly fade in during the first 4 measures, and switch from part 1 to part 2 (using scenes) while continuing the fade-in. I select scene 1 (part 1) and change the foot controller to heel down. I start playing and slowly increase the expression, reaching about 50% at the end of measure 2. I switch to scene 2 (part 2), with the intention that the fade-in continuous seamlessly, just with a different tone.

However, (without my DIY solution) part 2 starts at 100% expression. As soon as I move the foot controller a bit further, it then jumps to the physical value around 50%.
