Awful Waffle Pots

[Penly11]

Having trouble finding the B22k pot for the awful waffle. This is the first time I'm sourcing parts myself so I'm wondering if I just don't know where to look. I've checked Tayda, smallbear, and mouser. Have other people had luck finding them? Can I get away with subbing a 20 or 25k pot? Any help is appreciated.

Yeah use 25 or 20, whatever you can find closest to 22k will be fine.

What would be the difference in using a 20 vs a 25? Would the 25 just give me a wider range for the presence control?

If you order some 25k or 20k and measure them with a multimeter you can find a 22k one... or at least one close...

The difference will be slight, probably almost inaudible. Try using a 20k resistor or a 25k resistor in place of a 22k somewhere in a build, you’ll see what I mean.

Either pot should work. You get a smaller range and theoretically more control using the smaller value. Or a larger range with less detailed control using the larger one.

I think I'll buy a few of each and use whatever measures closest. Thank you all for the help.
