Piezo Transducer Electronic Bypass.

[nelson]

Switches are relatively expensive, wear out, are big, clunky and are murder to get if you aren't in one of the G8.

So, I present the Piezo Bypass.

Basically working on the same principle as you do to create a drum trigger out of them, you can use them as a bypass touch sensitive footswitch.

I got my ideas from the wicked switches article over at TTG's site and Music from outer space synth pages.

At 12 pence a pop for tiny piezo transducers and pennies for a bit of rubber and foam to go over the transducer on the enclosure, it might be worth messing around with.
