1178 Attack Knob Bypass Switch replacement

[boing]

Hi,

on our the 1178 the bypass switch which is integrated in the Attack pot seems to be broken.
The pot itself works fine, if the switch is bridged.
Does anyone know of any replacement possibilities?

Thanks!

Can you post some pics? Pot values?

Oof, those dual pots with the end-of-track switch are really hard to find. I've seen them being sold by one reputable (but overpriced) eBay seller for over a hundred dollars each.

I think Blore Edwards has something in their catalog that would work (it's been awhile since I checked), but I don't know what MOQ would be.

Honestly, it's not the sexiest solution, but you might consider foregoing the switch on the pot and adding a simple toggle switch to the front panel. Obviously not quite the same to operate as an end user, but functionally identical.

Many thanks!

Auch...Pretty Expensive. I would just not use the bypass in the 1178.
I actually never used the bypass option on the many 1176 units I used, no need for the bypass really.
Bypass is not pacthing it up in the patchbay
