Hi guys

Taken from a Citronic CM4:8 USB mixer

I fixed the other faults (dry joints on main -15V smooting cap and an LED)

Just this pot to sort now - the shaft is broken and there is not much room in there to fit an alternative

I had a look on Mouser and CPC couldn't find one like this.  Seem to be similar looking ones made by 'Bourne' but they are four pin

It is a B50K dual pot

Can anyone help?

Cheers

For some reason I only seem able to insert one pic per post?
The pinout is like this 

2----/\/\/\----6

And for the other section 3,5 with the wiper on 4

Unfortunately things like this tend to be ordered as customised versions from the manufacturers (ALPS in this case) and it can be almost impossible to find a replacement, except from the manufacturer of the equipment, IF they keep spares.

Cheers for the info guys

I doubt there is any chance of getting a replacement out of AVSL (parent company to Citronic)

Will do some googling tomorrow now at least I know what to look for but if anyone knows where to find one then I would be very much obliged

Thanks once again
Rich
