Volume Knob


Life

Recommended Posts

I'm designing some guitar pedals and I would like to be able to add a volume scale to my potentiometer holes. I've been doing this in photoshop but don't really like the results. I'd like to be able to do one of both of the following:

 

Create a circular scale 1-10 that is evenly spaced across say the span between 315-225 degrees (Upper span).

 

Or/and create a visual scale that starts at 225 degrees and increases radially clockwise going to 315 degrees.

 

I know you've seen it before I just don't know of a better way to explain it. Maybe autocad can't do this, if you know of something that might be a better fit let me know.

 

Thanks muchly :roll:

You can do a polar array to lay out text entities, and then edit the text into the required numbers. Or use the ARCTEXT tool from the Express Tools.

 

Also, might I recommend taking the volume to 11? It's one more after all...
