I seem to have confused a lot of people about "pointer knobs" - see
the explanation below:

Jim,
They are the exact same knobs used on the MiniMoog VCO octave
switches. Synth.com is also using them on their modular VCOs. Looks
like Bob Moog is using them on the new MiniMoog Voyager as well.
When you have a rotary switch on a module, a pointer knob is often
preferred by many people. It gives a sure grip and a more visibile
indicator of position than a stock knob.
The only MOTM compatible modules that currently use rotary switches
are Larry H's JLH-822 and 831 V-SWITCH modules. I'm designing a
SuperMoe sequencer address generator module that will use them. You
probably don't have a need for these knobs unless you have one of
these modules. Here's some pics:
