I recently bought a Roland SDE-2000 rackmount digital delay processor and am in need of two 50k linear pots; I can't find them anywhere! Thing is, I need the smaller size- 16mm diameter casing I think, with at least a 3/4" shaft. Does anyone know a good source for parts? I can't seem to find them anywhere on the 'net and the handful of local repairmen are just as clueless. Am I not looking hard enough? Help! :-)
TIA,
Mike

If you are having trouble with them just being noisy(dirty, I guess since your unit is digital, no audio actually passes through it), what I do is take them apart (being very careful), and clean them out, reshape the wiper, and make certain the carbon track is in good shape.
I put it all back together, (if the tabs break, I use solder to keep it all together or add solder to reinforce the tab). and test it out.
I've got oodles of audio experience (being in the pro-sound business), and this worked when I couldn't find the proprietary fader that manufacturers use. Unique footprints out there, just call up Roland, they may have 'em? or not....

Take a look at the Clarostat potentiometer line. They have several products that appear to meet your requirements. They're available from Newark Electronics.
