It most definitely is available. It is a quantity thing. Plus, I chose to go black to be different than the clear natural API knobs.desol said:...The knob i need for my real API's....isn't available?...

Were they merely "stackable dual-concentric" or did they first look like actual, virtual API pointer knobs? I don't follow software for recording but isn't Waves the one that currently looks like the actual API knobs? I guess they have paid/are paying for those rights? I would assume this is where this trademark thing came from.MartyMart said:owel said:If I'm not mistaken, some software plugin company changed the knobs on their virtual plugins because they show knobs that are stackable. ... and the software plugin was supposed to emulate an API hardware.
I think that was URS plugins, which are superb BTW

If you already have a knob but it's a 3mm hole, some careful clamping, a drill press and a 6mm drill bit and you are set. You will have to replace or grind down the 2 set screws. Clean up the threads a little if you grind them.desol said:I've placed a few orders from API(opamps and knobs(3mm mistake))...talked to Angel at the order desk...and even left a few messages for Mark, none of which were returned.

I haven't done this yet but it's aluminum. Pretty soft and easy to cut.
