kristal= Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Hi guys n gals, this is the ALBS Waldorf knobs bulk order Spring/Summer 2014 and the continuation of the following, sucessful bulk orders: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_2012http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_2013 http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_april_2013 http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_fall_2013 Presumably the last bulk order I will run for the Waldorf knobs, as I want to focus more on the metal SEQ4 cases. New items in this BO are: Drehknopf DK11-170 A.6/4,5 vertieft (recessed, black) Drehknopf DK45-114 A.6/4,5 schwarz (black) The Wiki page can be found here: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=waldorf_knobs_bulk_order_spring_2014 I may revise some minor details but the bulk order starts today and will end May 13th 2014. I guess there's plenty of time for everybody to sign up. If you have trouble with your Wiki account, PM me your quantities and the total amount and I will fill it in for you.

Lamouette Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Not for me this time ! We need to organise a bulk for Rogan PT knobs (Mutables instruments modules knobs) :purple: Have fun ! :santa: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristal= Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Those? http://roganknobs.com/ptseriespointercontrolknobs.aspx I guess it's better when somebody from the US runs that BO. Btw, +500 $4.77? I should reconsider my prices :smile: Edited May 7, 2014 by kristal= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamouette Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Yes, theses one's, they are expensive, that why i would do a big bulk, to know how much we can order, and what kind of price we can have. (I know mutable get more ''normal'' price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syn-Fi Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 hi, i'm thinking of ordering 50 odd, of the new 'recessed type' (Drehknopf DK11-170 A.6/4,5 vertieft (recessed, black)) to replace the crumbling knobs on my Waldorf Xtk. i assume they are d-shaft?

kristal= Posted May 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) i assume they are d-shaft? Yes, they are. See the difference between the dimensions here: http://albs.de/ecom/images/860018.pdf & http://www.albs.de/ecom/images/863063.pdf They both share the same D-shaft dimensions. The DK11-170 is 17 mm high and 11 mm wide, the DK16-190 19 mm high and 16 mm wide. Btw, the DK11-170 have a better handling, they aren't as "slippery" as the DK16-190 IMO. Even though one might assume otherwise because of the bulges. But the DK11-170 material is harder, therefore the better touch.

blingy Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Rogan is right down the street from me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altitude Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 I dont know about the Rogan stuff, they look OK (and the mold quality is not that great, lots of flash, not nearly as clean as I would expect at the price) but how they attach is an absolute nightmare with that metal bushing. I am not even remotely comfortable with the amount of force it takes to get those on and even less comfortable with the prospect of trying to get them off. I've blown apart encoders trying to get Albs parts off and the Rogan stuff is 10x worse. I still vote Sifam for small diameter parts. The textured finish is great and having the end cap removable/replaceable makes it really easy to go from pointer-less to pointer and keep the same look for under a buck each. $4.77 a knob @ 500 pcs is for crazy people who believe the knob will make it sound better. Intellijel use Sifam knobs if you need an example What is the status of this bulk? I looked at the wiki and there are two people signed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wider than 11 mm isn't ergonomic on the SEQ4. And some groovings in the knobs should come handy. Status of this bulk is up and running. If Syn-Fi signs up, the domestic shipping costs are covered and everybody will receive their knobs as soon as Albs delivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altitude Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Still open? Need 50 clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristal= Posted May 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Sorry, the bulk signing ended May 13th and all orders have been dispatched. You could PM Highcooley, if you could join his switch order at Albs. If an agreement with Albs is reached, I could do the shipping for both of you. Germany->World is much more affordable than Germany->Switzerland->World. Edited June 6, 2014 by kristal= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
