Re: [motm] Blacet Time Machine /MOTM format

2005-01-06 by Richard Brewster

100K pots should work fine.  If the WET/DRY mix pot (R6) is 100K, the 
output level will be slightly higher.  I would try it and see.  Making 
R28 smaller would compensate.  My regen pot (R2) does not have a detent 
and it isn't a problem.  I was planning to use 100K pots in my Time 
Machines, but because they were out of stock I bought 50K 
Vishay/Spectrol 149-71503.
