This is not an issue. Source: I am a professional composer.

Maybe you are not affected by it. I occasionally find it frustrating, in various scenarios… very slow sweeps by hand, or things like that. I only have problems with the limitation in certain scenarios with electronic sounds. It’s never a problem with sample libraries.

MIDI has 14-value CCs anyway, it’s just that few controllers generate the messages. I don’t k ow how many synths respond to them.

Composers are not really affected by this. Sound engineers are.

Should have been more clear. Professional film/TV/game composer. By definition we are producers and audio engineers as well.

And yes it truly isn’t a problem, as plugin developers have long since interpolated the 128 steps. If it were a problem, you’d be hearing choppy sweeps in every song and film score out there.

That's the point. It is not an issue for you, because it has been solved in certain receiving software that you use. That does not mean that the issue does not exist, but that it can be mitigated if you use software that allows that and smoothes the sweeps.
