I wonder if the pads on the 57kII can be put into a 62/64/68. They look to be the same size. Probably would have to insert each pad separately.

It seems it might fit the 62 but not the 64.
The opening around the button is about 1/2" on the 62 and 57mk2. The 64 is tad bit smaller.
The height/installation of the button might matter too and I am no mood to take apart the mixers LOL.

DO IT! be a Pioneer lol.

Yeah I just noticed how thick the 57's pads are and how the 64 pads sit near the surface.

Didn't know you could cap those or even replace them. You might be able to put rubber or silicone tubbing over it. Possibly use the tubes that are used to hold wires together that can be shrunk down with a heat gun or blow dryer. I know they sell them in different colors although I don't recall what they're called.
