Title: Alternate knob+slider cap kits ?
Post by: Koshdukai on January 25, 2016, 06:45:45 pm
the weird visual contrast between the traditional Brute knob/fader caps and those new bigger metal-top rotaries used in the Master Filter Cutoff and the Mod Amount. I do like both knob types but those 2 don't seem to mix visually since those are so different in form/texture and color.

Can't help myself from wondering how it would look like with an alternate (more homogeneous) set of knob+slider caps both regarding shape/texture and color (grey instead of white ones).

...hopefully it would look nicer while sounding the same ;)

On this video @8m7s, Glen Darcey explains how the NAMM MatrixBrutes are hand-made prototypes: Talking Arturia Matrix Brute: Origins and Behind the Scenes... (https://youtu.be/VvHoJeapBDw?t=8m7s) by SourceDistributionTV

...so maybe the knob/fader caps being used isn't the final choice yet, which may still give a nicer look to the panel or at least reduce the knob-type and color (white vs grey? knobs) clash on a predominantly (good looking) black panel.
