Anyone have a link or P/N of the Potentiometers used on the Matrix UKP1300's
I had intended to use these as my backup amp but now im in a position to buy more cheap CPC amps... the offer has expired Cry so need to run my RW3s off these for a bit.
Ive given them a clean which has helped a little, but still getting noise, so replacement looks the only option, but I cant find any details on the existing (that is if they are the originals, someone has already been in there before me)
Thanks for any assistance

They have been helpful sometimes when responding to my requests.

Do you need volume controls? If you always leave them on max and control things from the LMS or mixer, then why not remove them and replace them with links from the wipers to the hot (clockwise) ends?

Had a e-mail exchange with them a couple of nights ago, the bots they use currently are different to the UKP ones (which they no longer support) and whilst happy to send me a couple, didnt think they would fit the chassis.

The other option is something else I picked up from one of your earlier posts (and as suggested above) wire them wide open, though that also stops me from taking the Matrix out without the LMS if I do a small mobile gig, but is a very valid option Smile

they're nothing special, a 16mm alpha or similar but with forward facing 90deg bent pins. If you just want to get standard solder tagged ones they will bend carefully the other way and you can nip the solder spill off and they will fit. But the pot is secured anyhow through the bush so it doesn't matter.
