Has anyone replaced ALPS sliders with Bourns LED sliders? #22

Closed JKMinWA closed 5 years ago

JKMinWA commented 5 years ago

I'd like to build this, but can't find the ALPS faders listed in the BOM. I'd prefer to have faders with LEDs and found Bourns faders with dimensions and mechanical and electrical characteristics comparable to the ALPS that have LEDs in the lever. Has anyone made this substitution? Is this a straightforward replacement, or is there some other factors I need to consider or adjustments I need to make?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
