Title: simple footswitch
Post by: danwelsh on December 15, 2013, 02:12:58 AM
Well I made this in about 15 minutes total and it'll do for channel switching until I get my stereo plug from tayda....and a proper enclosure. It's a sucrets tin wrapped with electrical tape. The mono plug only allows me to switch channels....I need the stereo plug and another footswitch to be able to control the lead boost on my tubemeister 18

Hey, no fair! You're supposed to pay $50 plus S&H for a switch!

Is the tape to add mojo? Or has the sucrets tin so much of it you need the tape to stop it radiating out?

Great idea man, if the tin is strong enough to withstand stomping, I'd say keep it!

Yeah the tape was just for mojo lol....I might keep it for a backup. It's actually holding up to stomping really well so far and if it does squish any, no biggie as I taped the inside just in case it bottoms out....then if it does that unless you're gonna stomp thru the floor it can't go anywhere. :)
