Hi all,

Can someone recommend a resource for purchasing replacement knobs for an M-Audio UC33e? The knobs included aren't very tactile and a white pointer or indicator would be very helpful.

Thanks.

Yeah, it's rubbish you can't see where they're pointing.

I went for low-fi and painted lines on mine with tip-ex. Looks shite, but it worked.

Nice rubber knobs would be good though. I'll have to look into this myself. Think it's a standard size.

Cheers Garry

make sure to check whether its the d-shape shaft or the other tooth-type one you need

radio shack / tandy also has some knobs that ive used for replacement on a few pieces and mixers, have that old school look, and pointers.

they also use set screws so you can fit them to tons of different shafts.....

i said shafts..... lol.... :D

I filled the pointers in with tipex! does the job and cheap.
Certainly a pain without it true
