Use 1 or 2 fixed value resistors in place of the slider.

With 2 resistors you can pick your "setpoint" for the slider position. For a
single resistor you can wire the slider to the "bottom" or "top" as
preferred.

If the slider only has a problem when moving you could just short the moving
connection to either end and leave the part in the circuit.

Hope this makes sense...I'm a little tipsy at the moment...great time to hit
the studio and make bad music!

Hi all,

After following all of your good advice I got a reply from Roland:

"I have checked out the availability for this
part unfortunately we do not have stock and Roland Japan can no longer
supply either.

Very sorry"

Does anyone have any ideas about bypassing the slider altogether, I
don't need it.

Clive.
