If you had any clue, you would realize from looking at the front panel of the V6 that it essentialy has a tunable bass EQ on all 6 channels, and a 6-band EQ on the master channel. You would also realize that a rotary potentiometer has a much more linear attenuation curve, whereas a linear potentiometer has a highly-nonlinear (exponential) attenuation curve.

You guys forget that Bozak, as a sound engineer was striving for the utmost sound quality in his mixer, so he handpicked components. Knobs are much more resistant to dirt and dust which get inside and muck up the sound quality and eventually kill the pot. And if you think all the first primitive mixers were rotaries why don't you look up Alex Rosner, "Rosie", and Francis Grasso.

Yeah, I didn't mention "Rosie" because only one was made. The Bozak was the first commercially available DJ mixer.

Sorry, but "geeky fads" don't last for 30 years.
