Default Possible to replace Mixer faders with knobs?

I would really like to have a rotary volume option like the 610 console pictured below. Not so much for the vintage vibe (though that might be cool), but rather to further my pursuit of the ideal workflow. Is it possible to do this in the mixer like you can in TCP?

LOL
not just big, but nice to look at as well.
That whole theme is pleasant experience.

I think that knob may even beat Albert's largest:




PS: I noticed you didn't used an example from the unmentionable theme.
Those are large and quite nice as well, especially love the tracking deck knob with the integrated readouts.

Yes, you have to set the WALTER code for the layout to use knobs instead of sliders/faders.
You can then use either a single image knob background or a multi-image knobstack for the actual knob.

NOTE: also take a look at the tracking layout in White Tie's Imperial theme (R4)

Well, actually I just discovered today you can enable "narrow mixer" strips in the default REAPER 6 theme adjuster.

These are mixer channels narrower than the standard, and guess what they have knobs at the bottom of the strip instead of faders for track volume.

EDIT: see attachment (sorry for the tiny size, damn forum limitations....)

Hope it helps,
Mario

Curious, what theme is the one above? I can't seem to find it, are those "knobs" on the left side of mixer something you customized, or is it a theme which eludes me on the stash? If it's the latter, could you please post a link to it?

-Cheers
