Replacement Knobs?

Replacement Knobs?

2003-04-03 by pela_gius

Has anyone here found any nice looking replacement knobs for the Doepfer?  
I'm kind of tired of the sea of grey and would like to try something different but 
the Doepfer knobs are so small and a lot of the better-looking knobs are too 
big.  I would love something like EMS knobs with the silver or colored caps on 
top.  I also like the look of hard black plastic knobs ala Moog.  Unfortunately 
most knobs available in the doepfer size seem to be that standard ugly soft 
touch kind of knob.  Is it possible for knobs that small to look cool and feel 
good?

Hi pelagius,

As far as I know, the knobs, that Doepfer is using are also available at
normal electronic parts stores in several colour combinations. The grey
ones are only one of several choices.

Here for example:

http://www.rapidelectronics.co.uk/PDFs/CATPDFs/17_hardware.pdf

second page (p330), top left. These are all black body, different 
coloured stripe. It also gives the Re'an 'model number'. Dieter told 
me once that the grey body/black stripe is a customized colour 
combination for Doepfer.

I really like the RE´AN 3-color-molded knobs. They´re available in 
different color combinations and have Doepfer size, as far as I know.
