About 35% of the time my volume control adjusts the volume the wrong way on my Burson Conductor 3 R.
e.g. I'll be trying to adjust the volume up and it will be like 20, 21, 22, 23, 22, 23, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 26, 27, 28, 27, 28...
Here are some videos showing it:
From what I can gather online is that this can be mostly eliminated with proper debounce and that if this is occurring there's either something wrong with the encoder or it's dirty.
I got a response from Burson and they said: "The volume knob is behaving normally and what you have described is consistent with all our products. The reason is that in the moment of disconnection from one level and connection to the next level, the program can sometimes make incorrect predictions about where it's going. Up or down. This is why it's not happening when using the remote."
Are rotary encoders just super inaccurate or is Burson just terrible at implementing them?
