Virtually all stereo pots do that. My Dangerous D Box does that and it’s not using cheap pots either.

Some pots are better than others, but the only true way is to use dual mono pots or ideally stepped switches like we prefer in the mastering world. Easy recall and you’re ALWAYS at the same position due to physical resistors in the switches.

The best thing to do with monitor controllers is to calibrate your system so that you’re not using the pot at that point. So have it so you’re altering the dial between say 9 and 3 o’clock.
