I was talking to this EE a few days ago who @ one point in his life
designed elec organs (not for hammond, but the other big one when it
all started) and I was complaning about having a tough time finding log
pots, and he mentioned one could us a lin pot with a log op amp
instead, and get the same results.  Does anybody know any P#'s for such a
IC device?
