Re: Programmer/Sequencer, question about pots

2009-06-05 by drsyncenstein

the futurlec pots are Alpha pots.
They have a smooth feel and seem to work fine.
Don't know how they hold up in the long term.
There are many synth diy-ers that use these, only trouble I've heard about is that some people got center detented pots delivered instead of regular pots. That happened about a year ago, they seem to deliver regular pots now.
