Title: 5 Channel Click-Less True Bypass Looper
Post by: Roctopus on October 21, 2014, 03:31:16 AM
Hello my friends! It's been a while since my last post but here is another looper pedal I built. This one is a 5 channel "click-less" true bypass looper. I used the click-less relay switch kit from Mammoth Electronics. I also added a trim pot to the each foot switch circuit to control the LED brightness.

Looks fantastic Roctopus :)
never tried a looper but often thought about it :)
i like the enclosure and the LEDs

one questions, these relays are quite expensive (1x 20$), why didnt you use classic 3PDT switches (non-momentary) ?

Nice job. This is reminding me that I want to build Jacob/Thomas' Epic Looper.

Thank you sir! I went with the click-less because I didn't want the latching (click) sound or pop you normally get with 3PDT switches. However I have been experiencing some popping that I'm trying to get resolved. Here is the link to that thread

 I have a similar powder I spray.  :)  I was asking about the Hammond style.
