Abstract
Device for remote operation of rotary potentiometers consisting of a mounting bracket 10 supporting a flexible drive shaft 24 which has affixed to its supported end a control knob 2 and at its unsupported end a universal joint 26 which houses a thumb-screw 30 for capture of a rotary potentiometer shaft. Thus allowing the user to operate floor-mounted effects devices from a more natural standing position during a musical performances, rather than having to crouch down during said performance.
Claims1
Device for the remote operation of rotary potentiometers comprising:
- (a) A support bracket having means for temporary adjunction to a support member and
- (b) A control knob for the application of hand-generated rotational force and
- (c) An arbor for transmission of rotational force and
- (d) A pivotably-mounted coupling for transmission of rotational force from variable angles of operation and
- (e) Said coupling having means for temporary adjunction to a rotary potentiometer shaft whereby a user may now operate floor-mounted audio-signal processors from a more natural standing position by eliminating the need to bend or crouch during a musical performance to operate said processors.
