Hi there,
i was thinking about changing the knobs of my nord stage 3. I'd like to ask if someone knows the size of the pots. They are D shaft but i'm not sure about what size of knobs would fit.
Thanks for the help!!

Re: NS3 Knobs replacement
If you are looking to replace them with some different (colored/other) type, just pull one of them off and measure the shaft diameter with a caliper

Re: NS3 Knobs replacement
Thanks a lot everyone for the super helpful links.
I wanted to change the knobs for two reasons:
1 - they don’t feel that good compared to other gear that i have
2 - there are different sections on the NS3 and in the synth section in particular some parameter are connected. So i’m trying to figure out a nice layout to make everything more visible. Also i prefer a bigger knob on filter.
