PCPanel Pro MIDI Controller Knob Replacement

简介

The original knobs that come with the PCPanel Pro MIDI Controller are plastic and can be prone to breakage. These knobs, however, can be easily replaced with higher quality, longer lasting knobs. Additionally, the knobs can be customized in any way you like, rather than sticking with the original silver color.

Once you have finished your repair, be sure to test all of the knobs properly.

Unscrew the fastening screw on the new knob until it is loose.

Screw the fastening screw into the MIDI controller. Make sure to leave a 2mm gap between the bottom of the replacement knob and the MIDI controller.
In this case, we used calipers to ensure the gap stayed at 2mm, however placing a few pieces of paper underneath the knob will be just fine. We are keeping this gap to ensure that the knob can still be pushed down.
