Tap tempo switch

[O'malley's Alley]

Hey, how hard would it be to build my own tap tempo switch for my Boss DD-5?  Anyone have a schematic or diagram?  Thanks.

Not hard at all!!! I just built one a couple of weeks ago.

Hope that helps.

Oh, I forgto to mention, use a normally open type of switch.

Paul's is a nice job. If you would prefer a stompable momentary switch with a metal actuator, I offer one for $4.50 plus postage.

The have been ordering them SPDT (3-contacts), so you would use the normally-open contacts.

Sorry, I know this is old.  Paul that link is broken.  Can you post it again?  Or maybe it's in your diagrams...

ThX!!!!!

Thanks Paul!  Ridiculously simpler than the route I was going to take.

I fell even more silly now!  I frequent your site all the time and didn't realize it was you.  That's what I get for not reading...

LOL. No worries man.
