    Default Chroma Caps In Low Light/Dark Dj Booths?

    Anyone uses or seen the Chroma Caps being used at dark venues where there's very poor lighting in the DJ booth? It's really hard to see the knobs of my X1 in those situations so I'm thinking of replacing them with Chrom Caps. Picts are welcomed.

    There are allegedly glow in the dark caps coming soon. No date of availability has been established yet, but Ean showed such a glow in the dark fader cap in the latest video on the blog. So you might want to wait for those to make their appearance.

    HAHA nice got it all planned out! I was just wondering how the feel of the glow fader is. I had chromas on my last mixer and loved the feel of em and with it saying plastic for the glow one I was wondering if it rendered the grippy feel much
