Set the slider's minimum value to 0.5?

One octave is a factor of two - going up doubles the pitch (frequency), going 
down halves it. If you multiplied the frequency by 0.0 it would become 0, not 
half its original value.

If you want the slider to operate as a linear control with 1.0 in the centre, 
you'll have to apply an offset and scale factor to its value externally to get 
the geometric range change needed.
