So much fun just turning a knob :)

#1

Its weird, but its a very rewarding feeling seeing the values on screen change when turning a knob after some soldering! Now onto some real patching!

#2

I suggest to use conv/unipolar2bipolar rather than patching this explicitly.
Also: green wires is for whole numbers ("integers")
while blue is for fractional numbers (in the -64 to 64 range).
Do not convert to green wires to preserve the full accuracy of the potentiometer.
Use a disp/dial object to read your knob input. Or disp/chart p...

thanks! just playing and getting to know the objects! But as to not confuse other newbies such as myself here's a screenshot on how it should be done.

Any suggestions as to how to smooth out the slight jitter I see?

#4

YES this is also some of the things im looking really forward to smile wanna make a "control board" for mine smiley

#5

How much jitter are you seeing?
What's the resistance of your pots?
kfilter/lowpass can do smoothing, but it's even better to attack it at the source.

#6

they are 8 100K linear pots I still had lying around.
The jitter is in the last decimal when reading disp/dial p it varies by about 3 digits (so on a specific pot setting I see 33.35, 33.36 or 33.27) Not very alarming, but I was just wondering.

#7

Can you please post a photo of your setup?

How are the knobs connected to the board?

Thanks!

I suggest to
* use the VDDA pads to supply power to the potentiometers, not VDD.
* add a 1nF capacitor between the wiper of the potentiometer and ground.
That should minimize jitter
