If you want the stock model knobs, you must go to some Yamaha repair 
center . But, why not change ?
You can find knobs with the same type of hole for cheap by Farnell . The 
size is approximately the same and they are not ugly, you can even 
choose the color of the knob and of the stripe . You can find the famous 
"chicken head" knobs found on vintage amps too : once i've used them at 
work just for fun, my frontplate looked like an old AC30 ! I believe 
that a genuine Yamaha knob is as expensive as box of 10 Farnell knobs...
Important remark : i don't have any interest in this company, but i use 
to buy  all kinds of electronic devices for prototyping or maintenance 
at work . You order on line and receive the gear 2 or 3 days later .

I bought keys for my AN1x just a couple of months ago directly from Yamaha.   The probably have knobs too.

All Electronics also has small knobs:

Don't forget to measure & use those designed for a D shaft.

Re: [AN1x] PLEASE HELP! I NEED AN1x KNOBS!!

2007-03-10 by captain.moloney

I too need AN1x knobs. Actually, I only need one but I went to the 
website mentioned in this message and I would have to know the shaft 
size for the knob I'm buying. How in the hell I'm I gonna figure that 
one out? 

I need the knob that is located furthest to the right of the board. 
It seems that all 9 of the knobs to the left are the same size and 
will fit on the shaft on the right, that's missing the knob, but they 
fit alittle loose and seems slightly sloppy(easy to pull off). Can 
anyone state the shaft size for the knob I'm looking for?

thanks,

Kevin

Re: [AN1x] PLEASE HELP! I NEED AN1x KNOBS!!

2007-03-10 by Thomas Wolfe

I bought an AN1x on eBay not too long ago (Sept 2006) that was missing
the same knob.  I called Yamaha Parts and got it for US$10.91 shipped.
 They got it to me in about 3 or so days (I live in Colorado, USA).

Here's the website (for the US):
