kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Hi guys I set up a new bulk order page for those interested in the ALBS Waldorf knobs or the DK38 knob for the SEQ4: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_2013 It's designed to run like the ALBS Waldorf knobs bulk order September 2012, hopefully even smoother :queen: - The BO starts January 6th and will end on February 3th. Ideas and bug reports are welcome! Best Martin aka kristal= Edited January 4, 2013 by kristal= 2 Quote
Hawkeye Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Yeaah :) knobbery for the ledring boards :) Thanks for running that bulk! Peter Quote
latigid on Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Interested in a black datawheel knob for MBSEQ, I am wondering if you will get price breaks for the Waldorfs? Quote
jojjelito Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Hmm, this beckons the question if I should go for backlit knobs for the LED ringery (might be over the top) or just use my stash of opaques... Decisions decisions... Quote
Hawkeye Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 @J: going for trans, they look good even without backlighting :) sorry for OT :) Quote
kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Posted January 4, 2013 latigid on: What do you mean by price breaks? Jojo: Take your time, no need to hurry. When it feels good, put your name on the list. Peter: Welcome on board :smile: Quote
latigid on Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 latigid on: What do you mean by price breaks? Do you receive quantity discounts on amounts like 100/250/1000 knobs or so? Or is the pricing fixed? Cheers for your work :) Quote
kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Well, the price is fixed, because I can't look into the future and the more participants I have, the more work is involved. I think discounts are useful when we hit the 1200 knob barrier. But I don't think that is going to happen. Edited January 4, 2013 by kristal= Quote
technobreath Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Dude, that's the right way Kristal= :). I am gonna think a bit on what I want, and jump in myself. I got a newfound love for the clear transparent hehe, but I gotta go over my collection to see how many needed. Hawk, u're working on encoder-wall? :D hehe. Quote
NorthernLightX Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 Datawheel would be interesting indeed. Would take 2 at least. Maybe some other knobs too, if the datawheels come through. Quote
kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Posted January 4, 2013 Technobreath: I'm glad you like it! :smile: NorthernLightX: If you only need the datawheels, then the DK38 only option is the right thing for you. Quote
kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Posted January 4, 2013 Antix: No temptation intended. Just a legit BO and you have one month thinking time! Quote
MaG2k Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 hey kristal= i added myself to the BO list. Can you have a look to it...cause i dont know if i understood it right with minimum pieces and multiple of 5. Thanx! Regards MaG2k Quote
kristal= Posted January 4, 2013 Author Report Posted January 4, 2013 @MaG2k: For you in German: Minimum 15 Stück insgesamt und immer in 5er Schritten. Schaut daher sehr gut aus :smile: Quote
MaG2k Posted January 4, 2013 Report Posted January 4, 2013 @kristal=: for you in german too: Danke dir! ;-) 1 Quote
Arkay Posted January 5, 2013 Report Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) kristal=, Will be happy to jump on this one as well. Need a datawheel and about 25 transparent reds. Just waiting on my password change email (forgot what it was), for the wiki before I add my details. Thanks for running this again. You're the reason my MB6582's and soon the MBSeqv4 look so good :D Cheers, Arkay. Edit: Wiki updated ;) Edited January 5, 2013 by Arkay Quote
kristal= Posted January 5, 2013 Author Report Posted January 5, 2013 Haha, thanks Arkay. Well, I'm sure there are more people responsible for your MB6582 looking good than just me :) Quote
John E. Finster Posted January 5, 2013 Report Posted January 5, 2013 very much appreciated! i added myself to the wiki list. Thanks Quote
MaG2k Posted January 5, 2013 Report Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) Hey kristal=, i found some interessting datawheel knobs a time ago as i searched for a nice one for my SEQV4 and i found some nice at a german electronic distributor "voelkner" (has the same product range as "conrad"). I also testet the ALPS DK38 but i like the "Cliff Encoder Knob" more because better haptic feeling (it has a metal weight in its body). there are two types of them with different weight. i like the heavyer more. have a look to it: the heavy one: http://www.voelkner.de/products/339068/Cliff-Encoder-Knopf-K18-CL71650B-Schwarz-Achs-Durchmesser-6-mm.html the more lighter weight: http://www.voelkner.de/products/339070/Cliff-Encoder-Knopf-K18-CL71660B-Schwarz-Achs-Durchmesser-6-mm.html same in different color: http://www.voelkner.de/products/339067/Cliff-Encoder-Knopf-K18-CL71650A-Grau-Achs-Durchmesser-6-mm.html and the lighter one: http://www.voelkner.de/products/339069/Cliff-Encoder-Knopf-K18-CL71660A-Grau-Achs-Durchmesser-6-mm.html the cheaper one is always the lighter one! the only problem of it is that it is not for a "D"-shap shaft...that means not for the used encoders...but it works great...it fits and feels and also looks great! here a picture of my SEQV4 with that datawheelknob. you could think about to offer them to the others too....they are realy feel better then the DK38...but they are more expensive! here a picture of my SEQV4 with that knob fitted... (here the URL: ) (i allready searching for the encoder knobs in the picture...i bought a SEQV4 CS Kit from SmashTV were they were part of it...he told me that the manufacturer of that knobs dont produce them anymore or they do it only you order a real big value.)

kristal= Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Posted January 6, 2013 Hi MaG2k, kurz auf Deutsch um Missverständnissen vorzubeugen: Ich denke, Dein Post wäre besser in der Parts Sektion aufgehoben. Denn der Knopf ist frei verfügbar; die Idee hinter dem ALBS BO ist ja, dass die Knöpfe, die nicht frei zugänglich sind, zugänglich werden. Außerdem würde es den BO unnötig verkomplizieren. -- Grüße Martin Short summary for the English speakers: no coverage from me, the knob is freely available. Plus unnecessary workload for me. Quote
MaG2k Posted January 6, 2013 Report Posted January 6, 2013 okay...allready started that as new topic in "parts". Thanx for the hint kristal= it shouldn't be part of your BO. Regards MaG2k Quote
