The Blackmagic Design Spares - ATEM 1 M/E Panel - Control Knob refers to the physical rotary encoder cap and the underlying electronic component found in the "System Control" section of the 1 M/E Broadcast or Advanced Panel.

These knobs (often called "Soft Knobs") are used to navigate menus on the LCD screen, adjust chroma key parameters, and dial in DVE (Digital Video Effects) coordinates. Because they are the most frequently touched parts for fine-tuning, they are prone to mechanical wear and "encoder skip."


Components of the Control Knob

  • The Knob Cap: The physical plastic/rubberized piece you grip. These are friction-fit and can be replaced if the texture has worn off or if the plastic has cracked.

  • The Rotary Encoder: The electronic component soldered to the PCB. Unlike a volume knob (potentiometer), these spin infinitely and send digital "pulses" to the panel's processor.

  • The "Push" Switch: Most ATEM control knobs have a "push-to-enter" function. If you can turn the knob but cannot "click" it to select a menu item, the internal spring mechanism has failed.


When to Replace the Control Knob

  • Value "Jumping": When you turn the knob to the right, the numbers on the screen jump backward or skip large increments. This indicates that the internal optical or mechanical contacts are dirty or worn.

  • Physical Slack: The knob feels "wobbly" or loose on its axis, often caused by the internal shaft bending or the mounting nut loosening inside the chassis.

  • No Response: Turning the knob produces zero change on the LCD screen, though the other knobs in the row work fine.

  • Missing Cap: The plastic cap has fallen off or been lost during transport, leaving only the thin metal "D-shaft" exposed.


Technical Installation Note

Repair Level: 2 (Cap Only) to 4 (Encoder Soldering).

  1. Removing the Cap: If you are only replacing the plastic cap, simply pull it straight up and away from the panel. If it is stubborn, use a piece of string looped under the base to pull evenly. Do not use pliers, as you will gouge the aluminum faceplate.

  2. Accessing the Encoder: To replace the electronic component, you must open the panel and remove the Right Side or System Control PCB.

  3. Soldering Required: The encoder is a through-hole component with 3 to 5 pins (depending on the model). You will need a de-soldering pump or wick to remove the old unit without lifting the copper pads on the PCB.

  4. Shaft Alignment: When installing a new encoder, ensure the "D" flat of the shaft is oriented the same way as the others before re-seating the plastic cap to ensure the indicator line (if present) points the right way.


Diagnostic Tip: The "Skip" Fix

Before ordering a new electronic encoder, try the Cleaning Method:

  1. Remove the plastic knob cap.

  2. Spray a tiny amount of DeoxIT F5 FaderLube or high-grade contact cleaner down the shaft where it enters the housing.

  3. Spin the shaft vigorously for 60 seconds.

  4. In many cases, this clears out the microscopic dust that causes the "skipping" behavior, saving you from a soldering job.


Replacement Types

  • Menu Navigation Knob: The main knob used for scrolling through pages.

  • Parameter Knobs: The smaller row of knobs (usually 3 or 4) located directly under the LCD screen.

Are you looking for just the plastic cap to fix a cosmetic issue, or is the electronic encoder skipping and failing to change settings on the screen?

Expensive...BUT....you get what you pay for!
Color: Matte Black, Size: Large
I can't believe I just spent $50 on 4 pairs of socks....BUT..... I have to admit, they are amazing. They fit perfectly, are comfortable and stay on and in place. They are no-show which is just what I wanted. For reference, I'm a 10.5-11 in women's shoe and I got the Large. My one and only complaint is the price....I wish they were a little more affordable.

Worth the Price
Color: Matte Black, Size: Medium
At first, I was unsure because of the price, but wow—I was wrong. These worked perfectly with my loafers and flats. They stayed in place and fit comfortably all day. The only downside is the logo on the back, but overall I really like these socks.
