Guest nomadicWhale Posted September 11, 2004 Report Share Posted September 11, 2004 Hi,Anyone knows where I can find linear faders for MB? I guess those called "audio" are not good since those are exponentions.Do I need "linear" pots also? There's linear and "audio".I guess reichal has those, but I can read german.if anyone can pick up the part number I can look there, that would be very helpful.ThanksnW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven_C Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Yes, you must use linear pots. These are very widely available. On my midibox LC I have used panasonic motorised faders. On my midibox 64, I used 10K faders from Farnell, but I' not sure about the quality of these, as I never solved the jitter problem 100% (Yet to rewire the pots with heavier wire, and replace the pots that I damaged) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin303 Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 For pots, go to the Reichelt site and type in the search box: P4M-LIN 10K for pots with 4mm shafts and P6M-LIN 10K for 6mm shafts. The m stands for mono, which you will want for this purpose. LIN stands for linear, like Steven_c said, you will need Linear pots and faders, not audio faders which are exponential. http://www.reichelt.deWhen I last searched at Reichelt, they didn't have the right faders so I ordered these at Conrad. But beware, the cheap ones (say around 2euros) really do feel cheap (although they work perfectly reliable on my box).http://www1.conrad.de/scripts/wgate/zcop_b2c/~flN0YXRlPTE3OTM5OTAxNDI=?~template=pcat_area&p_load_area=241780&~target=areaGood luck ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
