Good point on the comment that there are a lot of places that carry Alpha pots, Scum; and thanks for the clarification of the difference between leaky pots and failing pots due to old age. I'd trash the two M-Audio interfaces except that I have learned how to work with them over the past 8 years, an...

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm right in the middle of a project so I don't want to mess with opening the OMNI up right now. Should have taken photos when I had it all apart. Doh! Also, I'll give the multimeter a try when I do open it up, the pots are several layers down so its a bit of work to take...

potentiometer for m-audio omni studio

I have an old M-Audio PCI Omni Studio Delta 66 combo interface attached to a Delta 1010 interface via SPDIF. I primarily use the omni to monitor and for the two headphone outs, as well as inputs for an Alesis Micron. Problem is that the monitor and two headphone pots are scratchy and have not improv...

Thanks for everyone's input. I now know I made a mistake mentioning the M-Audio lead rumor. I should have just said that I was ruling them out due to quality issues (or said nothing at all) and left it at that. (although I have been very happy with my Delta 1010 & Delta Omni I/O PCI interfaces, but ...

I'll toast to not ingesting any pro audio products with a couple of those McDonalds glasses. Do those come with progressive lenses or just regular bi and tri focals?

Thanks plurgid. I agree on the CME stuff..it seems too good to be true, but looks very tempting. Sorry you got stuck. I like the idea of the Akai MPK49 as a dedicated controller; thats what I was going for with the very simple Acorn Masterkey 49 USB MIDI Controller keyboard $80 new, but nobody has a...

synth keyboard controller recommendations requested

Greetings! I'm thinking about expanding my musical repertoire (have acoustic & electric & bass guitars & mics for vocals & harp(monica), by adding a MIDI synth Audjoo Helix (and/or other software synths like a grand piano synth) to my home-based DAW (Samplitude). I do have access to an upright piano...
