For digital mixing consoles, optical encoders such as Bourns® Models EN and EM14 are ideal high-reliability, long-life solutions that can bring years of service to recording engineers and producers alike. For analog mixing consoles, panel controls such as Bourns® Models 51, 81 and 91 provide long-life and low noise, in part due to the superior characteristics of the conductive polymer resistive element design. These controls are typically used for tone/frequency adjustment, balance adjustment, attenuation, and effect sends. For consumer/professional mixers, Bourns offers high quality panel controls and has recently expanded the product line utilizing long-life carbon resistive elements for low noise operation. Models PTH90 and PTJ90 feature dual concentric shafts with integrated rotary or push switches. Bourns also offers an array of slide potentiometers including Model PTS Master Fader, PTL Slide Potentiometer with LED, PTE Low Profile Slide Potentiometer and PTF Long-Life Slide Potentiometer. These models are all available in various standard resistances, tapers, levers, and travel lengths. These components are typically used for volume controls and master faders. 51 Bourns now offers a full line of slide potentiometers including our latest release, Model PSM Motorized Slide Potentiometer with touch sense lever and optional snap-in connector. PTF 4 91 PTE Sound Recording and Video Editing Equipment The newest generation of sound recording equipment and video editing stations are digital. These units have a jog-shuttle control that enables the engineer to search through a song or video to a specific point for sound overdubs or for editing purposes. The components used for jogshuttle controls must have a long rotational life and be able to withstand the strain of constant adjustment. Models EN and EM14 are the perfect choice for this application. These components are designed to provide years of reliable service to sound and video engineers. PTA EM14 PTB PTE PTF EN Slide potentiometers are also used for recording level adjustment on digital recording equipment. Video transitions and intensity levels can also use slide potentiometers. The PTA, PTB, PTE and PTF models all offer the performance required for these applications. Check out the numerous board level component solutions offered by Bourns, Inc. at www.bourns.com. 5 Electric Guitars and Effect Pedals Electric Guitars 95 Premium 95 Long Bushing 82 Vintage Bourns offers “guitar pots.” For the standard drop-in replacement, Bourns offers the PDB241GTR and long-life PDA24 with knurled or solid shaft. These models are available in an audio or linear taper, and in a variety of resistance values. Recently added are the new “mini” guitar pots; Model PDB181-GTR and PDB183-GTR with a push-pull switch. A dual potentiometer for blendbalance control is also available in Model PDB182. In response to market demand, Bourns has re-released the Model 82 Vintage Guitar Potentiometer. This model was originally released in the late 70s and made its way into custom guitar shops, where artists quickly recognized its superior performance. Referred to as the "square blue pot," this product has withstood the test of time, with some artists noting that they still have the original guitar potentiometers in their instruments. The Model 82 Vintage Guitar Potentiometer is available with standard bushing, and now also available with long bushing for through-body mounting. Bourns also offers premium guitar pots with longlife and extremely low noise. The Model 95A1DZ28 with knurled or solid shaft is available in an audio or linear taper, and in a variety of standard resistance values including 25 kΩ and 50 kΩ for guitars with active electronics. For thick body guitars, Model 95Z1D-Z33 offers a long bushing and shaft with similar resistance and taper values. Special options are available upon request. PDB241-GTR PDB241-GTR03 Effect Pedals Whether it's volume, tone or wahwah effect that an artist is trying to achieve, effect pedals need reliable potentiometers that are designed to withstand the demands of daily usage. Bourns® Model 6630 Precision Potentiometer is used in high-end pedals for its long-life and outstanding performance. PDB182-GTR 6630 PDB181-GTR PDB183-GTR 6 Instrument Amplifiers 96 PEC11R There are a variety of products in the Bourns Pro Audio portfolio for use in guitar and keyboard amplifiers.
