potentiometer values on sds 200

potentiometer values on sds 200

2016-12-29 by John Simmons

Hi, does anyone know the potentiometer values used on the SDS 200? I need some of the 4.7k pots for an sds 9 (3 broken shafts and one bad ), and was considering buying a broken sds 200 just for the pots. But if they're all 100k ones or some other value I may not bother.

Thanks!

By the way: You can open the existing SDS9 pots. Buy some regular 4mm pots and replace the shafts only.

If you can get an sds200 for so cheap that this makes sense, then you should be buying it get it fixed!

Good call on replacing the pot stems, I'd never thought of that, my SDS9 has one broken pot stem, so I'll be looking into that. It's one of the trigger level pots and I use mine via midi, so its not a big deal, but I still feel sad whenever I see that missing knob.

I have a few pots on my SDS that seem to be in need of cleaning or replacing, so if somebody does have a good source of sds9 pots I'd love to know.

All the knobs are gone on the unit, as are the CEM chips, and it apparently was not working before it was stripped, so it would cost more to restore it then to buy a working sds 200. But it turns out all the pots are 100k, so they'd only be good to steal the shafts from.
