I too, not owning one yet would like to see a change in the knob movement function. I'm going back and forth between the Helix and the GT-1000, trying to decide which to buy to replace my ever-growing pedal collection and heavy tube amps for gigging. I see many of the demos and the person is turning, and turning, and turning the knob to make the setting changes. It looks tedious and if there is no other way to turn the knobs I'm guessing it will be a deal breaker for me. I might like to change something during a live performance and can't see stooping over and tweaking like that to make a setting change. Good grief!
Please Line6, hear your community and build in a new global function for knob behavior. ??? Please!!
