Hi,

I'm building the Nelson/Orman Insanity box and am usure about what type of pot (log or linear) to use for the 3 controls. The schematic is:

Question 1: The "drive" control is labelled 1M. Is this a log or linear 1M pot?
Question 2: The "tone" control is labelled 100k. Is this a log or linear 100k pot?
Question 3: The "volume" control is labelled 50-100k. Is this a log or linear 50-100k pot? What would be a good value to use?

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Paul E

1-log
2-lin
3-log, 50-100k all sound the same
