Bryan, the TR4 knobs have a hole in the plastic.  Feel around the plastic part
that is on the shaft.  If you feel that hole then this is how it works.

The knobs push onto the shaft and a small circular metal spring-loaded pawl
pops out of the shaft and into the hole.  To remove you need to depress the
pawl (through the hole) with a small pointed object (a nail or an ice pick)
and then pull the plastic knob off.  Hope I was clear in that.
