you can just pull out the knobs bull pulling straight up and you can use string/dental flosh for the fader caps. I’ve done it several times on my vci’s no big deal. Be sure to show us a pix when you get it done. Good Luck and Welcome to DJ TT Site ---

removing the fader and pitch slider caps by simply pulling up on them was a cinch. but im still not sure about removing the rotary knobs. ive pulled straight up on all of them with significant strength and they havent budged. short of taking some vice-grips to them, ive tried pretty hard. do they come off at the silver caps or below at the thicker gray base? ---
