Hello,

I am trying to put together a Cmoy which I know is not uncommon, but I have a question regarding the potentiometer. I will be using an op-amp with two channels of output and thence I am supposed to use a potentiometer that has dual resistances. I think they usually have six pins. The Panasonic EVJ and a lot of the Alps are like this.

My question is if I can use a regular single output potentiometer (3-pins) to control both channels? Should I just get double the resistance to make up for it?

Thanks.

 

It won't work. To have stereo out (did you mean one of these? - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMoy ) you have to keep right and left channel signals separate. A dual pot is needed.

 

Radio Shack actually still carries a dual 500K.
