[sdiy] Roland TR-909 Tempo Potentiometer?

[Jack Jackson]

Sorry to spam, but in that photo, the shaft looks about the same width as the DIP package on the left. I checked and the width of a standard DIP package is ~6mm so that would concur with what you suggest Jack. I supposed the only real mystery now is the distance of the shaft from the pins of the pot as I imagine this is important to make sure it fits through the panel OK.

Cheers,
