Shipping
Shipping
Please Note - For International orders we offer both Postal Service and DHL Express shipping. Postal Service (Canada Post or USPS plus the Postal Service in your country) is economical, but there can be customs delays of multiple weeks going into your country. Any tracing cannot begin for 60 days per Postal Service regulations.
DHL Express offers better transit times, typically 4 to 7 days depending on the destination. That being said, the local DHL pickup courier frequently misses a day, which is as aggravating for us as it is for you. And sometimes they miss two days in a row. That's the honest truth, so choose whatever is best for you.

The New Regen Knob
The new Regen Knob is a modern re-creation of the original knob found on vintage Synclavier II systems. This new hardware option makes a perfect companion to Synclavier Regen.
-
The weight and feel of the knob are identical, as we have used the exact measurements and a balanced spring mechanism. The two-inch diameter knob is milled from a solid bar of instrument-grade aluminium (yes, we were doing this long before Apple). The interface software and hysteresis algorithm are taken directly from Synclavier II.
-
The Regen Knob comes with a bracket and screws to secure the knob to the side of your Synclavier Regen. It can also be used stand-alone.

Shipping charges are quoted during checkout. Orders shipped to Massachusetts will see Massachusetts sales tax during checkout. Orders shipped to Canada will see HST applied during checkout.

There's no substitute for quality
Regen Knob is a precision rate-of-change dial. Using the knob to dial-in settings is not only an authentic way of controlling your Synclavier, but an efficient method to design sounds. Your left hand doesn't leave the knob, your right hand dances over the button panels. You close your eyes and set the parameters by ear. It's all very right-side-brain.
Synclavier Knob is proudly Made in Canada.

Warranty
Synclavier Knob comes with a 2 year warranty, from date of purchase, which covers manufacturing faults. If you buy a knob from a reseller, you should return the unit to them. If you bought the unit from this website, please return to our address for repair or replacement – use the contact form to initiate this process.
Please note: Our warranty does not cover misuse or accidental damage, such as coffee spills. If properly cared for, your Synclavier Knob should give you years of service.

To protect against tarnishing or finger printing, it is advised you occasionally clean your knob. The wheel can be lightly polished with a metal polish, such as Mothers and a soft cloth. The front and back panels can be wiped with a soft micro-fibre cloth. If you want to use a wax for cleaning and protection, make sure it is a non-abrasive variety, and test it on the inside of the panel first.
