Usually you need very expensive adjustment screwdrivers, like the once
from Bernstein, you unlikely can calibrate something, using tools made
of metal.
available so
that one can permanently fix the dials of the soundcard in
question? I'm planning to bring a UA-25.
It's discussable if a calibration by averaged potentiometers will last
very long, but assumed this should work, take care of the used glue. Hot
glue is good to make SATA connections inside a case stable etc.,
especially because hot glue is easy to remove, but since hot glue tends
to be UV-sensitive and easy to remove, it seldom last very long outside
of a case. Loctite likely is the better glue, but likely the
potentiometer never can be readjusted anymore, if you use Loctite for
screw locking.
