Here is a pretty crappy video I did on the caps not fitting as advertised.

Lame. Maybe it's a 57 generational issue as you'd hope they would have actually tested them...

Yea...I sent this vid to Ean...I know he's cool people and the quality is good...but they just didn't fit. Somebody asked how were they on a different thread, so I thought I would post this just FYI.

I got some of the fader caps, which are supposed to fit on the Twitch. They do fit but they're kind of loose, which means sometimes they drag along the surface of the controller.
I admire DJTT for trying to improve on what's out there, but I just think knobs and faders are so non-standard on DJ gear that they're on a pointless mission with these.

Have you tried the toilet paper trick Bob? Put some on the stem and wedge the fader cap on afterwards? Usually helps get them snug

Yeah thought about it, but being fader caps, I promptly lost them after taking them off.
Might give that a go when I come across them in the house again...

@ :10, you said... "They feel reaLLy good, reaLLy sticky, reaLLy rubbery." LoL! (nm)
I bought a few of those fader caps in the Black color for my TTM57 and they seem to fit pretty decently. I only replaced certain knobs that I use most often on my mixer.

Yeah I asked on a different tread, been thinking about fitting a few on my 68.
Did you also try P1/P2 ? Same result there?
Thanks Warp.

Hi did anyone else have this problem, or did it get fixed ? Big fan of Ean, would love to replace the knobs on the TTM57.
Kadilac, checked out your other vids, that Stephen Marley wasn't on my radar, sure is now !

Interesting idea...if I stay with the 57 the nail polish knobs and custom faceplate will give it some new visual life.

The tradeoff is they FEEL so much better than my worn 57 knobs.

They look nice on other controllers but dam they don't look good on the ttm57. It's like having a Honda and slapping 22" Rims on it

U r just right bout dat.

Yes, i mentioned that I was not a fan of the color,
however, after 3 years, the residue from fingers
caused the grippy texture to decrease on my original knobs.
These feel 200% better and are also 200% more visible.
I may exchange these for black, which should not look bad imo.
