I'm playing with a 4th order highpass with adjustable frequency, which of course requires a 4-gang pot, with all 4 gangs sweeping in sync with each other. As far as I've found so far, I can sweep just one by itself, but not all 4 together. How can I do that? I thought maybe I could implicitly define a variable by putting a name (arbitrary string) into the K field of each one (or the R field of some resistors), and then sweeping that name as a parameter, but it didn't like that. Non-finite value for each of the individual parts. I thought I'd see if an example project had something that I could reverse-engineer, but I came up empty there too. The 09 Twin Tee Distortion Meter says it has a dual-gang pot, but as far as I can tell, it's implemented as two disconnected singles, and it won't simulate anyway because of a long list of name conflicts. |

Nevermind! I finally found the Parameter tool, as the first thing in the Unsorted Elements group. Add one of those, give it a name and value, and then you can use that name in a component value, and sweep that name in a simulation. Behaves as expected. |
