Hey team, new member of the family. I want to buy knobs and sliders that are various colours, potentially nice fancy high end bits that feel nice.
I really do not want to buy a heap of pots and find out I got the wrong size for the shaft… same for the sliders… so any tips any pretty things you can point me to…. I’m basically going to do my best to make it look like an arcade machine got lost at a rave… my one disappointment is that I can’t add a joystick or Mashable buttons. But the ribbon will suffice!
I emailed UDO about this a while ago and got this response from the man;
‘Hi,
The knobs are standard flatted 6mm shafts “F” type. There is a 7mm bushing, so the knob should clear this, and the shaft depth into the knob is 10-11mm deep.
Please use extreme caution if you try to remove any knob. They are very tight, and it is possible to damage the potentiometer if not done carefully.
Kind regards, George”
I actually haven’t changed any yet because they really are on tight.
