[sdiy] akai encoder

[Heitor Alves]

can you tell me the number of pins that encoder has? i dont have a
s5000 but the s3000 i have use a 24 Detents, 24 PPR encoder, that has
3 pins (kind of a pot).

if it is a 24 Detents, 24 PPR encoder you can find here
(http://avi.dezines.com/mbhp/buy.html) @ 1.25$ each... a very good
price comparing to mouser.
