Best answer
  1. Create button or buttons that send note-on (or control change).
  2. Create a knob. 
  3. Set its Subtype to Transpose.


     
  4. Accept the default transpose steps (affects the display min/max, number of ticks, MIDI Min/Max and default value)
  5. Make the button or buttons subcontrols of the Transpose knob
  6. That's it!

The steps are identical for Octave Transpose (except for #3, of course), and THEY MAY BE COMBINED.

How Does It Work?

The transpose knob centers around the default MIDI value. Each value above is a transpose up, and each MIDI value below is a transpose down. You can always make another transpose knob that shows how the values should look by accepting the defaults.
