It means that the caps will go on the pots or fader post so far as to touch the face of the controller/mixer/etc. Same thing happens on the crossfader on my apc40. The fader cap can not be pushed down all the way. Hope I explained that clear enough. It makes sense in my head…
Understood…Cheers Will
Got my new Chroma Caps for the DDJ-SX. I love these things!!! decided to go with Yellow & Grey Super Knobs for the EQ’s and FX sections and Black Fattys for all Gain Controls. The Fatty Knobs do sit a bit high but it doesn’t bother me at all and doesn’t affect their performance/feel.

Faders fit. Knobs not.
DDJ-SX looks so good. I wanted to try it out but they were all in boxes 
Question re: choma caps fitting. I’ve seen that there is a 90 degree offset when using the chroma’s with the DDM4K.
Could I get around this by using a drill to drill out the flat part of the shaft recess in the chroma’s, and and then folding some paper around the shafts on the mixer to get a nice tight (interference) fit?
I did this with the splined shafts on the caps I used to mod my UC-33e. Drilling out splines was easy - but how hard is the material on the chroma’s?

Anybody?
Patch, I dont have the mixer In Question but I have done a fair share of modding in my life. I dont see any reason why that would not work. The chroma caps are just plastic. They will drill out easy. I would get the right size bit and drill it out for a press fit meaning its a little hard to get on but it is tight. If you accidently make it a tiny bit too big, I wouldnt mess with paper. A TINY dab of epoxy like JB weld will do it. If you use a tiny bit it will be DAMN secure but will come off if you REALLY need it too. Wish you lived in the states or I would do it for you. I have a pretty nice mod shop built in my basement… good luck.
I’m more than happy to do it myself, i just want to know if the chromas are made of such material that drilling into it might make the drill “bite”, and cause the cap to spin in my hand… 
Ouchy.
The caps already have a shaft recess that fit’s the “D” on the pots of DDM4K - so drilling to a size where a press (interference) fit is achieved won’t be possible. And I don’t like the idea of using any glue/epoxy/cement.
A 6mm drill will do it, though.
Does anyone know if these Chroma Caps fit on a M-Audio Venom Synth? Greatly appreciated
the glow in the darks have a clear color when there not glowing i have 2
This may fall on deaf ears but it would be awesome if you guys posted your pictures of the chroma caps in this thread Post Your Chroma Cap pic/collection. - Page 3
that was people can have an easy way to view how they look without sifting through the questions.
yes i have seen them on
The Super Knobs fit on my contour. Whoop Whoop!
Por que no glow in the dark knobs?
patience, padawan
Thanks so much! This helps a bunch!
Here are some better pics of the Kaoss Pad Quad and some Pics of the DN-X 1600 with DJTT Fadercaps on the Lines.
Where the hell did you find those pdt 6000’s?
