Title: two volume pots?
Post by: mr_deadmaxxx on August 02, 2011, 08:31:54 AM

is this the correct way of connecting an additional volume pot? (e.g. some videos in youtube of the dr. boogie dual rectifier has two volume pots)
they say you use a DPDT foot switch for this.

I suppose a better question would be:

Do you plan on changing your Volume and Gain setups while you are playing??  :icon_eek:

deadastronaut did this in his Boogey and reported no popping. He'll be along himself to confirm this any minute now.....
