Vintage Synth Repair

I think the no-name pedal I use with an odyssey is about 100k.

Hey, all this talk about the ARP Omni inspired me to
pull mine back off the shelf and play with it.  As it
turns out, it doesn't work too badly!  Some of the key
contacts are a little unsure, and the bass half of the
keyboard doesn't consistently trigger properly, but
most of it functions alright.

One question:  Does anybody know what potentiometer
value is used for the external foot pedal that
controls the filters?  I'm thinking of building my own
pedal.

Sorry for the late reply to this post. I don't know the value required
for the ARP Omni, but have access to 10 or 20 volume pedals left from the
Baldwin factory. These look Italian and were shipped with some Italian
keyboards the had imported. These have a TRS jack and a 50 K Ohm (linear
taper) in a black plastic case with a metal bottom plate. We get $20.00 +
postage for them. 
 On another Omni note, I need 6 of the push button switches for mine. I
have the button caps, but te switches don't make and I can't see how they
can be taken apart.
  One of the the sliders was broken and I found that Baldwin had used the
same style of slide pot on some organs. I don't know off hand how many
more we have, and/or what all the values that were used in the Omni, but
maybe I can help someone out.
Thanks,
 Lynn

Oooh, hold on to a couple of these for me.  These
could be very useful!
