Thanks for the article. The gimmick of using a resistor to change the
taper of a linear pot has been around for a while. If you refer to
Electronotes #111, pages 5-6, you will find a short article by me,
entitled "Warping the Response of a Linear Input Attenuator". It shows
how to obtain a taper similiar to an audio taper by adding a resistor to
a linear pot, exactly as described in the article linked here. This was
motivated by a desire to use high quality pots while still on a tight
budget (which I could do by buying a quantity of 100 or more of the same
linear type pots to get the price break) and still be able to get
different taper responses where needed.
