expensive studio mixing consoles have those for volume controls. you can store presets and it'll move the sliders. closed loop control of course. even "force feedback" is just a few tweaks to the control loop. you can apply a limit to the rate of change, or you can create detents that are purely defined by electronics/software.
Yep. They allow mix setups to be saved, and recalled electronically. The alternative is making a note of every fader position, and manually putting them back into those positions.
Yeah I think you're right. I've had several over the years. I found mostly found them in home audio systems. Generally used as a remote controlled volume or like you said audio mixers treble bass ECT
I have one of these, and with a planned use in mind, but the lack of breakout boards have made it harder to work with, so I would love to see you produce this
Neat! Any recommendations for where to source reasonably priced linear motorized potentiometers? I ST*W, but appreciate recos by adafruit community. Cheers!
I remember someone made a pong game with a bunch of these. Made me wonder if you could make a small bowden 3D printer with enough of these. Definitely a plot bot or maybe a real-life homework machine. Friends can do each others homework if done over the webs. Well thats what I thinking about. These look like fun

Isn't that what some big audio mixers use ?

Definitely had a bunch of these in the berringer x32 I used.

I was hoping to see these in the shop someday, they're so cool!
"Possessed electronics". Nice one !
cant wait to hook one of these up to the flight simulator and watch the throttle control adjust through the autopilot.
YESSS, I've been hoping you would get this in the store forever. So excited!
Super cool!

Time to prank a sound system guy
no chance, they expect motorized faders on all decent gear!
A useless machine, but it's one of these. Every time you try to turn the volume up it puts it back down.

Cool
Are they available in a shorter size? How does the resistive tolerance vary between each unit? What would be their approximate cost?
I've always wanted these in shorter lengths, do you think that is doable? 30mm?
Will these be for sale?
is it possible to set a value and not have it go past that value, but move freely below the value
Back and forth. Back and forth. Back and forth. Side to side.
I miss Dr. Steel.
Can you make it go extra slow?
