Root level geekery

Metal shafted pots throughout: where Studio Electronics needed mil-spec audio tapers, because PC Mount tapers underperform in critical areas, they hand-wired in PEC Cantina pots (a commercial mil-spec variant) for the attacks and decays – resonance, too. The balance of the pots (PC Mount linear taper) are made by Alpha, a very good quality offering with heavy grease. Strangely, the higher-quality hand-wired pots use a lighter grease, making them feel 'scrapey' by comparison, but they are almost 10× as expensive, pushing up the V30 build cost a bit.
