Offboard wiring for a dual-effect, single enclosure pedal

[dobo2001]

So I want to put two effects in one enclosure, and have two footswitches. One which bypasses the whole thing, and one which switches from one effect to the other. Like on/off and then a/b. And an LED for both Bypass and then two to signal which circuit is being used. How would I go about wiring this? I didn't see anything on tagboard. Thanks for any help!

Here you go, dobo. Welcome to the forum! 

The switch terminals would be oriented L to R, like " - "  Hope that makes sense.

my bookmarked point to Mr Harald site
but my wiring method for that, usually Mr FCUK style. Sorry, forgot where the image

Some time ago, I did a multi-effect pedal.  That one I did not have a stumpswitch for all on or all off; they are all rather switched individually on or off.  But if it helps, here's how I wired that one up:





Hope that helps.

Thanks! Should there not be three LED's? One for effect A, on for effect B, and one for the bypass? Which one is which? Thanks!

You can add another  resistor/LED combo to the bottom row middle column lug of the A/B switch to indicate when the other effect is on.

Yup.  When I put mine together (2 Marshall Guv'nors, is what I originally did this for), the default was "A", my all the time rhythm sound so didn't need an indicator.  So only needed an LED for "B", which was set for leads. 

You can do what Matt suggests...if I did that, I'd consider just grounding the middle lug (no LED there) and then using the R/LED on each opposite terminal, to +9v...
