Prophet Linear Pot (R245?)
2007-11-10 by Chase Smith
Hello,
I just received a replacement (Control Panel pot for my Prophet 2002) pot from Wine Country today in the mail. When I went to install it I realized that it was a linear pot and wouldn't work for the parameter knob. I tried to make use of it by switching it out with volume but there were some problems so I had to put my very noisy (values jumped a lot) log pot on my volume and my volume (not as noisy) on my parameter.
This relates to the group in that I am asking if anyone wants to trade a log pot (of good condition) for a linear pot (of "new" condition). On the 2002 the only linear pot is the sample input so maybe one of you ordered a new sample input and Wine Country sent you the wrong pot like they did with me and we can just trade. I could ask for an exchange, but I imagine they'll screw me with shipping and it wouldn't be worth it.
The same thing happened when I ordered my Pro-One parts so now my LFO rate pot is so fine in a certain section that it is very hard to use.
