Taking off knobs - damages the potentiometer?
Posted on: 03.02.2013 by Porter Terras
i was wondering, after changing caps, taking them off and putting them on again, have you ever experienced that some potentiometers feel different afterwards, in terms of more easy going/ smoother / less resistance?

I just finished assembling my shruthi-1 and had to remove the caps 3 times. Afterwards, or maybe i just haven

I doubt it, unless you have somehow bent the potentiometer. No problems here
