Well... Turns out I didn't have a problem after all! I was trying to test my new volume knob using a cheap portable CD player and headphones before hooking it up to my much more expensive sound card and speakers. After checking the wiring and the pot using my multimeter, I took a chance and hooked it up between the sound card and speakers. SUCCESS! Apparently, the CD player has much less output to work with than the sound card... even at full volume. The new volume knob works GREAT! Here it is: I updated my web site with photos and details of assembling the volume knob: http://www.ogredog.com/mame_construction_home.htm#Day%2050 Thanks to everyone who tried to help! |

I wanted a solution that I could easily panel mount so that all you see is a knob. |
