long pot' cable ...?

After many time in outerspace… 8)

I’m back…

With a simple question… ???

Who build the longest cable from the MBHP to the pots ??

Because i need to “deport” the pot to a long distance… and i need to know if someone did the experience !

PS: Thorsten , i’ll do a review of my control glove on MBHP64 as soon i found a little time …

RE-PS: A midibox controlled song of mine is on a french compilation : http://www.midibox.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=songs;action=display;num=1046052967

i’m also interested in the reply, as i’m building a pedal extension to my midibox. Thus 2 pots and 2 buttons can be controlled by foot. (switch based with example provided on the website)

Some months ago I used a shielded cable which was longer that 3m w/o problems. At was a common audio cable for stereo, the shield should be used for the ground and Vss connection, the two wires for +5V (Vdd) and the AIN pin

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Great news …

I will jump on stage with my control glove !!!

Thanks

Gilles

playing with different resistances for your Pot may give you greater distance ???

LO

no no … I still use  10K lin pot …but on a control glove …

And i needed to know how long can be the cable between Midibox and pots …

:wink:

Gilles

what I mean is if you are tring to get a longer distance between your pot and AIN board

A pot with resistance other than 10K may give you less jitter

ok .. sorry for the misunderstanding …  ;D

I’m gonna try if i have some jitter…

Thanks all !
