Audio Attenutator

Thought I’d share my latest make, especially as it contains a couple of parts from the Pimoroni store.

I was in desperate need for a volume control for my record player, so I made one:

Good choice for the logarithmic pot as I do believe that is what is used for audio in amplifiers etc.

Yeah, made sure to go with a log pot, even tho’ it was pretty much one of the cheapest I could get my hands on. Apparently Alps Electric do stuff for audio applications so it’s worked out well.

Finally printed a case for it:
