hi, i would like to know if there its any chance to change the switches of this pedal, this its a very annoynig pedal because the switches get damages real fast, so i would like to change them for some dpdt or maybe some 3pdt

im planning to move the pedalboard to another case a bit bigger, and i was thinking in use some DPDT momentary switches for all he switches, the pedal uses some microswitches those are 4 legs pcb mount.
the only thing i dont know how to change are the most annoyings ones the selectors, these are like the sp12t switches but these ones are like digital ones are small boxes with just 3 lugs, and cennecto to only one leg of the main bank effect... i think this ones are impossible to change, or maybe not, im not sure

... which are internally connected by pairs.copachino wrote:some microswitches those are 4 legs pcb mount.
Aren't those simple analog pots ? There would be an ADC in the microcontroller, reading voltage across the pot and doing the steps in software ? A quadrature encoder would have had two pins connected to the MCU.copachino wrote:the only thing i dont know how to change are the most annoyings ones the selectors, these are like the sp12t switches but these ones are like digital ones are small boxes with just 3 lugs, and cennecto to only one leg of the main bank effect... i think this ones are impossible to change, or maybe not, im not sure
I only give negative feedback.

i have check and yes tehre its 2 legs to the MCU, do you think its possible to change the switches for momentary dpdt??? o im wasting time on this
i´ve found this on ebay, but im not so sure if they will work out
if i use an spst momentrary switch??? i guees this ones are the best for the job

Yes, those tactile switches are indeed SPST.
