Can I use a Rane VR 1 with an RPM?
Nope. Use the VR 2 instead. Here’s why you can’t use the VR 1 with a Drag Net device: • The VR 1 uses a reverse taper (clockwise rotation decreases control voltage), which is the opposite of what the RPM expects. • The VR 1 uses a logarithmic taper, as compared to a linear taper, so the “feel” of the level adjustment is different over the pot’s range of motion. The VR 2 uses a normal, linear taper pot and works marvelously with the RPM. Alternately, any 10 kohm linear taper pot will work.
