Basically I would say, yes you can use the encoders. Though I don’t know what “2fach Rechteck” is exactly.

About the LED ring, you need to know the matrix constellation.

Best for Encoder and Ring: Get the datasheet from the vendor.

Switches (these are not knobs):

Yes, they should work for you.

No issue… I think you’re German, so you have the same problem as me… I also don not always hit the correct term

… and yes, I’s worth the time… but be aware of the potential of addiction :shocked:
