A great upgrade!

They're called Fader MK2.

Thanks!
[UPDATE Aug. 3rd 2021]
I don't know why I didn't follow through on this when you posted your photos, but I just ordered 9 Fader MK2 (plastic).
I'll post photos when they're in place.
Thank you again!
Thanks!

Keylab49 and Keylab88 (not pictured) just had the sliders replaced. Keylab61BE got A) sliders, B) glow thin encoders on Category and Preset controls and C) glow encoder for Volume and other Encoders.
And the keybeds are all even. The 49 is just propped up on the couch making it look uneven.

Please let me know how they fit when you get them.
Thank you!

Ordered slider caps in a color scheme that follows Hammond organ drawbars. Better visual cue than a line of black knobs, but thats just me.
The glow in the dark knobs are interesting with my Black Edition. I would do things different next time, but some might like the scheme.

« on: September 09, 2018, 07:17:14 pm »Hi there,
I want to upgrade the fader knobs on my KL88. Something my finger tips can more easily settle into. (see attached picture)
I'm guessing that the tops of the faders that the knobs fit on are 'generally' universal but don't know for sure.
KL 88 Metal fader top measurement with knob removed:
1.40 mm thick (0.555 in.)
4 mm deep
6 mm tall
So, I think the question comes out to be:
How do I go about finding good fitting knobs and not wasting a lot of money on ones that don't fit?
Any input from anyone is very welcome. Let me know what you think.
Thanks!
