Pot question

<< Quick one: I have bunch of pots labelled "20KD", I know A is lin,
B is log, but what is D? (is there C?) >>

Hello Marjan,

"D" taper is a kind of modified Log taper.  It is used most often in Japanese 
audio devices.  Panasonic sells a lot of them - their popular "Audio Taper" 
pots are D taper, not A taper.  All of the audio taper pots in Mackie mixers 
are "D" taper pots.  "C" taper usually refers to a reverse Log taper.
