Hi everyone,
I'm building a clone of the Maestro Filter - Sample & Hold and I am wanting to do the mods to the filter section known as the "Tonda Mods".

I think I have my layout correct as far as the extra parts I will be adding with a perf board, but I am unclear on what taper to get for the mod's potentiometers?

There are 3 extra pots:
5k (Attack)
1M (Decay)
2M (Resonance)

I also want to possibly replace the trim pots with real pots (ease of adjustment for input signal changes), what taper should those be? There are two, a 10k and a 100k.

Thanks all, I really appreciate all your help.

**I had the schematic posted but then realized it said not to host on other sites. Here is a link to the schematic: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/pdf ... c_mods.pdf

In lieu of data/guidance to the contrary, I'd just go with linear taper pots. Trimmers are always (at least in my experience) linear anyway. Linear will certainly work in all the positions, though you may find that the pot taper rolls on too fast or too slow vs. optimal control effectiveness, in which case you can always change them out later.
