I build a Cupcake and I've read that the Sus trimmer pot should read about 1.5 - 1.7 vdc to get compression without it turning into a boost.
If that's the case, then why do they have a 10k trimmer pot?
Wouldn't a 5k or 3k trimmer pot be a lot easier to dial into the sweet spot?
This is the first real pedal I've built and I'm just curious why you would pick a pot with such a wide range when the useful range is so small in comparison. On the pot that I have the useful range is about 1/2mm in one direction or the other.
My guess would be availability. A 10K trimmer is a lot easier to source compared to a 3K or even a 5K.
