Hi,
I recently built the Korg Nutube B1 from the pioneer batch. I love what I’m hearing but really want remote volume control. The kit currently uses Alps RK27 50k.
I’ve done some looking into motorized pots but without any recommendations I’m a little nervous that I’ll end up with degraded performance. I even thought about controlling the knob externally using a stepper and microcontroller🙂
What are your thoughts on the best way to do this?

Take look at the Academy Audio site. They offer a range of DIY remote controlled solutions based on the NJR Muses volume control IC. This is the same IC utilized by Pass Labs in their preamps.
