Default Re: Digi 003 Rack Monitor Volume - crackling pot

I think these pots are sealed...
amps and electric guitars have vintage-style, open pots that are easy to clean - I spray my guitars and basses with Deoxit.
Newer equipment, like Digidesign rack gear, apparently uses sealed pots, to make it harder for tech engineers and savvy users to just clean it, and require an expensive repair from Digidesign... lol

I am basically waiting for a response from DigiTechSupt or the likes, telling me what model it is, if they are sealed, and how much Digidesign, or a representative, would charge to replace 2 or 3 pots in my 003 Rack.

Google has no information on this. At all.
Come on, can't really be that unheard of... In 2010, with the advent of twitter and google wave, there should be entire forums dedicated to tricks and hacks on how to get a dose of Deoxit penetrated into 003 Rack pots...
