Wow these Lead 2's can take a beating... Cool

Any idea where I could get some replacement pots + knobs? I haven't been able to find the form factor (4mm sized D-shaft) at mouser, digikey, etc and I'm not a vendor.

Wow...

What is the damage of the car? Wink

First of all try the feedback form on Clavia's site.

If you have no luck, I can spare those nine knobs.
The pots are 10K and I always file away the side of the shaft. You will loose about two pots to get the angle right, but as soon as you know how the job is quickly done.

Hopefully Stockholm can send some spares...

Thanks!

I checked the pots on-board with a multimeter and was getting 100ohm, but I'll assume that's my error. 10K will probably be easier to find. I sent some feedback to Clavia as well. Knobs aren't really that big a deal, cosmetically speaking... Wink
