its not mine but i did buy a few because it works well for other gear
it fits with the decksaver too! the knob has a tiny bit of kinetic energy and a finger detent makes it easy to drive. also fits the look quite well, it almost belongs!
It’s not that I dislike Squarp’s original plastic ones, but having tried your suggestion, I suddenly like the idea of having knobs that have a bit more weight to them.
Have now ordered a few samples - will report back should any of them turn out to be worth attention…
I ordered the big volume knob as data wheel as well, and ordered two sets of the big encoders, ALU colour and Black. I will choose the colour once I have tested them. All from amazon.de.
Note: the encoder knobs come in pairs of 2, so only order 4 as ‘quantity’ for 8 in total
Maybe put it this way: what size/diameter in mm did you keep for the single rotary knob on the right of the Hapax, and which ones did you keep for the groups of 4 knobs?
honestly its kinda sad that we paid almost 1300 usd and the knobs are cheap plastic ones. Love the unit but the knobs could have been something a bit nicer.

i think the oem knobs are just fine, i add custom stuff to most of my gear. if you wana bellyache about the price maybe find something better? or keep it to yourself? or tell it to squarp. im happy with my unit.
I’m happy with the unit, and functionally they are fine, but they are probably the cheapest knobs they can find. I feel like the unit is overpriced, but it is what it is.
