Does any such a device exist (cheaply)?

Bill,
What console are you working on? Lot's of companies make detented pots. Many people don't use them because it requires another pot in series that can calibrate the detent.
Modern digital consoles can have a programmed stop stored in memory that fixes all the problems with much less expense.
