Can this get out of bounds? E.g access -2?

Since if ( recentMidiValues.size() >= 2 ), there shouldn't be any danger of that.

The problem raised is in fact correct and the fix looks like it's correct too. I haven't had time to test it and don't know when I will - hopefully some time next week. This bug probably went unnoticed in testing by me because I modified my controller to output the full stream of CC messages even when moving it fast.

// Check if current and previous MIDI values bracket the software value
if ( ( prevMidi <= currentValue && midiValue >= currentValue ) || ( prevMidi >= currentValue && midiValue <= currentValue ) )
return true;
