Electribe Discontinued Potentiometers??? WTF?

Post by Dyaphonoyze »

I have to replace the pot that controls the LFO depth. It is the most used knob on the emx and is worn and no longer controls the parameter accurately. The service techs I have spoken with said that the part is discontinued.... and there is no replacement part....

My question is how can they be making new electribe EMX-1 SDs and not have a part that is used in them? Am I forced to buy a new one or a used one for parts? This is so frustrating, someone please help a struggling producer!! :?: :!:

It's probably just a regular potentiometer, can't you just measure it with a multimeter and buy a similar one?

(or just measure the one next to it, if it's FUBAR)
