Modern illuminated tuning knobs

Our STAR-KNOBS are designed for menu driven interfaces, click rotation and click push-in for ‘OK’. This reduces the number of knobs and controls required on the front panel. The illumination is a visual highlight and enhances user operation of the equipment.

• the flush-fitting version represents an attractive transition between the knob and the front of the device; the knob can be illuminated, that is, a ring lights up between the recess and the knob cover
• with the surface-mounted version, the knob design makes a great impression thanks to the slight inclination of the body towards the inner axis, thus allowing ergonomically comfortable operation; the knob is mounted on an approx. 3 mm high ring, which can be illuminated if required
• illumination possible with modern, energy-saving SMD LED technology for power supply units with 5 V: either white backlight for the colors diamond, ruby, emerald and sapphire or RGB backlight for individual colors as accessory
