Take your B2M pot and put a 500K resistor across 2 and 1 or 3. Now connect your dmm to 2 and 1, turn pot and see what you get.

It's the same response as in B1M, no rev.log response whatsoever. Rate response is like a deep logarithmic one, rate starts to decrease way too slowly, after midway its getting higher a bit and in the near end it goes up rapidly. Not a balanced distribution I can say..

Well, it's all a mechanical thing, B1M = C1M in resistance. Either will work.
A larger diameter knob will help reduce the sense of logs. Lol
