How many sliders do you want?

Maybe look into buying sliders from established distributors like digikey then.
In my personal experience cheap sliders from aliexpress worked just fine though.
Just search for linear potentiometers in the length that you want

@uncut swift There are sliders with integrated leds btw.
Like I said earlier best bet is to source it from a site like Digikey that specializes in selling parts
If you're buying from Amazon the sliders you're likely getting is going to be the same as any other slider from aliexpress as they're just dropshipping majority of the time.
Im using aliexpress sourced sliders and they work fine and are cheap.
I put some part links here

That would be some rotary knobs (2 dollars), a Arduino nano (2 dollars), oled screen (not sure what size but like 1.50)
Some wires you got lying around (free?)
A arduino nano is fine, I would personally get one with Usb C. Pricing probably differs a bit since you're in the UK but I've gotten Nanos for around 2 USD
Yeah definitely not based on the prices I listed
Just shop around for the best prices on aliexpress
You also need to make your own enclosure if you have access to a 3d printer
A nano has 8 analog pins, 2 pins will be used for the oled screen so you're left with 6 pins for 6 pots
Sounds good, just note that you'll only be able to control the Discord volume as a whole, not individual user volumes

I probably wouldn't do solderless if you want something small to mount on your monitor like that guy
Also that's a encoder not a potentiometer
I don't believe so
They're all the same, just make sure its linear
Resistance doesn't matter
But 10k is common
Itll be fine as a hobby kit
Nothing fancy but it'll get the job done
You realistically don't need the multimeter
