    Wooooo! What a nice looking knobs!
    Can you tell us where did you get them?

    Regards
  • The knobs are manufactured by Mentor, part nr. 505.6131 for the 12mm round knobs, part nr. 506.6131 for the 17mm round knobs and part nr. 5581.4631 for the 17,4mm wing knob.
    available at several distributions such as Farnell, Distrilec, Conrad...
    not cheap, but nice looking ;)
    maybe you'll need to trim the shaft lenght of your pots for the 12mm knobs, because they're just 12mm long.

    in the germany area you'll get the best price at Buerklin.de

    cheers,

    ps. the wing knob must be drilled to 6.35mm to fit on the grayhill encoder. (I have used a 6.4mm drill)

    All fonts have been changed from the last design to resemble the font used by Roland in the early 80s. PM me for an EPS or AI file.

    Do note that this design has different dimensions as the acrylic case design provided by e-licktronic. There are also less screw holes, so you'll need to import the cutout info from the original files.
    Hello ElSchtroumpf,
    I'm not able to send PM, so I ask here: it is possible to have the AI file of your panel overlay design?
    Thank you very much!
