Hey guys! Super new with all this stuff so please be gentle :)
Im attempting to rehouse a cheap Behringer comp pedal because A) I want to learn, and B) Im on disability and bored as heck!
I want to put new input and output jacks, 9V adapter jack, LED and footswitch, and put it all in a metal housing.
Going to keep the original knobs because I basically end up doing a set and forget comp pedals.
I de-soldered all of the components listed above and the plan is just to wire new components to the spots on the board that the originals were soldered to (see PCB Help pic).
My question would be what footswitch to use to gain a solid metal stomp switch. See PCB Help 2 to see what the cheap original switch was.
From what I know about 3DPT switches, they dont seem like they would work as it seems like all the work that type of switch would do is already being done on the board.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and I apologize if this is a ding-dong question. This is my first time ever on a forum.
Is there a schematic that you can find for the pedal. I'm not sure about the switching mechanism.

Unfortunately, no just the manual it's a CL9 Compressor.
I found this, it just takes an spst (which only has solder lugs) stomp switch.
the 4 pads are just 2 duplicated pairs.
Connect 1 pad at upper row and 1 pad at lower row will do.

Probably an spst momentary contact normally open like this:

When you're done, make sure you show off your rehoused Behringer pedal. I'm intrigued.
