Which size/type of those thonk caps fit good to swarm?
Yeah, I think so
I probably should have left them off the note value pots on the pads, because you can bump them, but itās not hard to dial back in and I wanted it uniform
And it looks like an angry bumblebee now!

Is Thonk the only supplier of these caps? Is there anywhere in mainland Europe that sells them? (I purposely avoided writing āknobsā because @Fin25 is childish).
I donāt know
Iām in Australia and it was extremely fast shipping from the UK. Wasnāt too expensive either
Ha!

When sending clock it doesnāt receive it (or start and stop the sequencer)
Mine worked right out of the box since I got it months ago, never had issues with MIDI sync or triggering it through MIDI. Iām even using it right now, being triggered by the OT and with the internal Quadrantid sequencer running.
What are you using as a master for your MIDI setup?
In my case it was wrong MIDI type adapter. Swarm works with TRS-MIDI type B.
Iām using the midi adaptor supplied by Eowave and I set the ext midi clock on. Iāll try again laterā¦
So the swarm receives sequencer start and stop over midi but itās not in sync (and the clock pot still controls the tempo). Any suggestions?
While Iām fiddling about with this thing, has anyone used the keystep pro to sequence it? How would I set that up with the Cv gate? (Iāve previously only used MIDI for sequencing)

what colour caps are these?
When you have an external MIDI clock the clock pot works as a divider. The synced rate is somewhere around 12 - 1 oāclock IIRC
