Im guessing the pots gone bad?
either that or the wiring |
I guess it's because your pot is linear and audio pots are logarithmic.
In other words. in a logarithmic pot the internal resistance rise in a logaritmic scale (think curve) and to the ear it seems like the volume is augmenting gradualy.
with a linear pot the resistance rises in a linera fashion (think line
) and to the ear it seems like ther's a
jump un volume suddenly and no play.
For the original post, i would redo the solders and if that don't work change the pot. it'll cost like 1$ or less.
