Hi Chris
Thanks for your comments.
I take your point re minimising the potentiometer noise/noise time
situation. It should be relatively easy to do. First I need to get
some field practise and mark the three positions that that best match
my requirements (which will probably be much as you suggest above).
I then will measure the resiatances of the relevant potentiometer
slider tracks and obtain fixed resistors of suitable values. 12
resistors will be required (two for each of the three positions X 2
for a stereo mic). These days very small sized resistors are
available so, with a sutable switch, I doubt if the the switch box
will be any larger than the present box.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Cheers
Tom Robinson
