I bought the printed ones https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=zoom+f8+knobs&_sacat=0 and found them to be unusable for a double row mixer. They take up too much space and make it near impossible to use the push buttons and the faders themselves. Low profile and smaller diameter might work. For a single row of faders it's probably not a problem. Kishor Chauhan did this (SD knobs, no longer available), but he never explained how he did it. Zoom faders don't have shafts. Same, those would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul F Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 I can make those knobs. But I'm not willing to pull the knobs off until I know how to do it. I tried pulling them off, but after pulling a certain amount, I feared any stronger would break something. Zoom says they come off, but they are not designed to do so, whatever that means. So I need either someone to explain how they come off or a victim willing to try it. efksound, posted this picture from a Facebook posting by someone else back in 2016.

Definitely different than my F4. They have shafts. Looks like the knob may just be "glued" to that little ribbed bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael McQueen Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 I've been on a college football show this fall and here is my setup. Nova with 2 plug on zmt3hm to Sennheiser MD46 and a lectro T4 for IFB feed with IFBlues to our host/guests and producer. I'm hardlined to camera and I use a humkiller with the IFB feed from the truck. nothing crazy, just nice and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernie Lu Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 Here’s my simple bag setup.. A 552 running direct outputs to a F8N. Still using my Saramonics cause getting Sennheisers or Sonys where I am is extremely expensive, yet alone Lectros, Wisys or Zaxcoms… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronmac Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 Every time I see a picture of a 552 I am amazed at how beautiful they are and what versatility they offer. Very nice bag rig, Bernie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice bag rig, Bernie! Agreed! Love seeing a 552 out in the wild. I just installed mine in my main cart (as the backup) as my 744 went in for repair and I need something soon. Usually my 552 works on my playback cart routing signals out from my interface. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin360 Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 Me being supercompact and mobile. Mixpre 10T II 2x DCR822 Audioroot BG-DH MK2 held together by a dashboard I designed and printed. Might buy a Nova soonish though... Playing with that idea, but I actually like this setup very very much. Not sure if I'd even sell it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using two Mini Circuit splitters that were recommended to me here in the forum. They've been working perfectly and don't waste nearly as much space as a full blown splitter. They are sitting right below the Mixpre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
