Upgrade old Parametric Dutch EQ by Duran Audio

[Khron]

Just to potentially clear up one thing - at least on some DBX 1066's i had a while ago, the pots did indeed feel like they were detented (didn't count how many though). That being said, they weren't the "kachunk-kachunk" detents you'd find in a rotary switch, just a light, dull "step" that ticks over.

I that's kinda what I was thinking with the DBX pot. So you can go between the detents???? Kinda gimmicky I guess but good for a quick recall even though I probably wouldn't  trust the accuracy.....lol potentially...

actually you can - because it's pot and not resistors between the stops ....but if you do - i'm not really if it's will be usable to you because the steps really small .....

a somewhat smaller thread as the original and probably you will need to change the knobs as these are 6,3mm versions.  But if you like detents, these are a good option.  I don't think Radioohm pots are made any longer.

thanks - i'll check this store - but i need pins

You need pins as much as you need the pots...... A mod is a mod sometimes...

there is one more problem - 11 dent pot - that mean - each step will take few DB's
