That is weird! Yeah all my cabs came with clear gates! The black gates look like the same super cheap plastic the joystick enclosure has around it. So wonder if they have a couple variants floating around. Maybe that's why my sticks felt so lousy that I swapped them out right away?
@@OfficeArcade Seeing the variation between your controls and mine made me think about the QC issues with these KI cabs. I haven't experienced any issues so far but did more research just in case. At first it seemed like a power issue but AC1-up posted they've narrowed the problem down to the control deck itself. I doubt the sticks would cause boot issues but maybe other parts are different too (like the encoder). Just thinking out loud now.
So much glue Downbeat! So much. Have a followup with a joystick swap which shows how they are definitely making it harder to do part swaps which is unfortunately too. More glue and proprietary parts that don't use standard sizes.
You know what lbs springs come stock?
Not sure! Sorry. 😞
@@OfficeArcade no worries, keep up the great videos, thank you!!!
@@fultron2611 for sure! Glad you enjoy them!
Here's something funny: the gates on your sticks are black but the ones which came in my KI cab are clear.

@@dariusq8894 could be man! That’s exactly where my head is at too after you told me we had variations in components in our decks.
Glue! Yuck!
