i'm buildind the tremulus lune, and i was thinking use the lfo led also as a status indicator on-off of the pedal.

the only problem is that i don't have 3PDT switchs but only 2PDT! then i thought myabe with the millenium bypass i can do that!

do you think is this possible?

If you don't mind using non true bypass switching it´s possible to do an old bypass style conection one side of your DPDT and use the rest of it to change the LED status. You can even use a bicolor LED to obtain a change in color as a status condition. 
As an old style conection I referred to the one that conects jack input and circuit input together, then switching the output jack to the jack input/circuit input or to the circuit output.
Pagan and happy!

i understand what you mean, but i prefer it with a fully true bypass!

so is there anyone that can help me figuring out if i can use the millenium bypass in this way?????

btw here is the schem: http://commonsound.org/tremulus/pcb2.4.1/schematic.pdf

well the millennium bypass isn't true bypass anymore, it's electronics switching. if you had a switch that could do it though, you could use the LFO led power to light up two LEDs, and install one as the status to flash with the speed of the lfo. then the switch could break the circuit for that LED.
