(You will need 16 of the Black - Small (6.35mm Round Shaft) for the pitch and velocity and 3 of the Black - Mini (6.35mm Round Shaft) for the VCO and Noise levels)
Yeah I also ordered them yesterday from Thonk. I really didn’t even think about putting knobs on mine until I saw the video and thought that it really does look quite a bit nicer.
I just received my knobs from Thonk in the post today. Got them quicker than I thought coming from the UK to the US. The really do spiff up the looks of the DFAM.
Thanks for the heads up there James.
It works perfectly: the hole in the 1250 knob is 0.02" larger than the DFAM knob and the thick “milkshake” straw is 0.01" thickness = a perfect fit!
Make sure to cut the plastic straw insert to 0.2" x 0.7"
The thick plastic also acts as a protector to your DFAM knob when you tighten the screw on the new knobs!
Much more precision dialing in the pitches and velocities.
For those in the US I found these on Amazon. $7 for 10 black and aluminum knobs. I don’t have either the knobs or the DFAM yet, but the DFAM is on the way
This is BAD information. It’s one thing to try and HELP people with good advice BUT when you present something like this as an option and it doesn’t work(which I’m sure you found out) the least you could do is come back and let everyone who reads this know that the product you linked to doesn’t work.
CLARIFICATION : the above product link DOES NOT work with DFAM. I know because I ordered it. The POT posts on the DFAM aren’t long enough. These knobs have a recessed post that make them unusable on the DFAM AND Subhamonicon. They could potentially work of you sawed off the bottom 20mm? of the barrels but who wants to do that ? I’ll try to follow this up with something that does. You’d think MOOG would have the sense to offer something like this that actually works BUT ???
