Doug Wellington Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 UPDATE: I have received the first batch of 160!When the total reaches 320, I'll place another order.Original message:I can get the Alps N type motorized faders in the PCB mount version. Anyone interested?http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/dougwellington_bulk_orders
amp1ron Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 The resistance taper for these is listed as 1B. Is that linear or log?Is there any place that's easy to find touch-sensitive knobs/caps for these?
nILS Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 1. Google: "taper a b potentiometer"2. click first hit:http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Ade%3Aofficial&hs=faL&q=taper+A+B+potentiometer&btnG=Suche&meta=3. Read:Taper Old Code New Code AlternateLinear A B LINLog (Audio) C A LOG[/code]
amp1ron Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 I could find B, but not 1B. That is until I clicked on the Related information (http://www3.alps.com/WebObjects/catalog.woa/E/HTML/Potentiometer/SlideMixers/RSN1M/RSN1M_common.html) link that's on the datasheet you linked to. 1B looks to be as linear a taper as they come.
Doug Wellington Posted May 2, 2008 Author Report Posted May 2, 2008 Yes, they are linear taper. That's the best for a motorfader with one track that is used only for control. There are some dual track motor faders where one linear taper track is for motor control, and the second track has a log taper and the audio is passed through it...FWIW, once SR finishes his new MF board, I hope to test the "K" model motor fader with it - if it works, I'll go for a group buy on them too. (RSA0K11V900C - minimum order quantity 200 - 12 week lead time - about $25 each)
dougmoser Posted May 4, 2008 Report Posted May 4, 2008 I'm sorry, what makes these so special? Do they work with the MB6582?
seppoman Posted May 4, 2008 Report Posted May 4, 2008 I'm sorry, what makes these so special? Do they work with the MB6582?no, but why would you want motor faders on a synth?
nILS Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 no, but why would you want motor faders on a synth?Patch recall feature for analog CVs? Mixer feature, feedback? ;)
seppoman Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 well, yes ;) I'm dreaming of 8 motor faders just as a display for monitoring the LFO end ENV states :D
Foona Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 Imagine a Roland Juno with motorized faders...mmmmm :)
gody Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 Does someone have experience from you to buy something from America? White exactly as with the tariff does not function completely? White someone which one for it pays? MFG Gody
Doug Wellington Posted June 24, 2008 Author Report Posted June 24, 2008 I don't know what other countries charge for import fees. Where are you? Maybe someone else from your country will know...
Doug Wellington Posted June 24, 2008 Author Report Posted June 24, 2008 UPDATE: I have ordered the first batch of 160.As soon as I know the final price, I'll add it to the wiki. I'll won't take payment until the faders are here and I know what the final shipping costs are.

Doug Wellington Posted October 26, 2008 Author Report Posted October 26, 2008 Sorry to take so long, everybody, but I just sent out PMs to the first group of people on the list. Only problem I had was that the PM editor doesn't know who "xploited" is - whoever you are, do you have a different MIDIbox name?I'm going to order the second batch of faders this week. ;D
dstamand Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 Oops, was in june...I removed my name from the list. I already bought a dozen from another source. Thanks.
