Doepfer

I uploaded few pictures of my customized Eurorack to the photo section:

1 – I never liked those dull gray Doepfer and the cheesy rubber ASys 
knobs. When I got my Zeroscillator, I liked Cynthia's knobs much 
better so I replaced all of them (200 knobs!).

2 – The MCV24 LCD display was hard to read and its view field was way 
too narrow. I replaced it with a Noritake VFD. Plus it looks very cool!

3 – My Zeroscillator pitch knob had no visual position reference. I 
replaced the knob with a 10-turn counting type. It also looks cooler 
and higher-tech :-)

I didn't expect that to look as good as it does.  Nice.  Complements the
aluminum panels.

That looks really nice, do you have ordering info for that knob?

The knobs look amazing! Almost makes the A-100 look more expensive.

Yes I love your choice of knobs...I am going to do the same...looks 
vaguely like an old emu modular :-)

What are the names of the knobs and where to buy them please

Thanks. BTW Chuck, I'm a big fan of your work. Not only is it very 
interesting music, but it sounds like you've mastered an impressive 
variety of genres and styles, and mastered orchestration and 
production techniques. The same skills show in your electronic work.

I recommend anyone new to this or wanting to learn new techniques 
beyond the usual popular clichés to try mimicking the sounds and 
structures on your Doepfer MP3 page. In the end I always end up with 
something entirely different but learn a lot in the process. 

Thanks for making them available!

I bought them from Jameco for 50 cents each, part number 136240PS:
 
http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplaylangId=
-1&storeId=10001&catalogId=10001&productId=136240&pa=136240PS

Keep in mind these are ¼ inch US shaft size (6.25 mm) knobs and 
Doepfer and ASys use 6mm pots. So the knobs are slightly larger 
fitting on the pot shaft. You'll need to be a bit careful putting 
them on.
