I need to know how to wire up a pedal with an 3pdt effect on/off and switches to switch in and out 2 different input caps with leds for each cap and on/off.

I got this pedal for bass (based on the bazz fuss but modded)  that has a toggle to go between input caps and I got a friend who wants the set up above. I have no idea how to do this, a layout will be greatly appreciated.


thanks in advance scott

Hi 23,

This might help you.  As for wiring the  bypass switch, there are lots of already-made schemes on how to wire one up...the "to circuit" line would go to this switch, then to the PC board....

thanks you thats real close to what i need to know, is there any way to get two leds to work for each input cap? Ive tried wiring two leds for on/off operation on a regular 3pdt and only accomplished an on/off led and a permanently on led for easier finding on a dark stage.

thanks again tho, this maybe how it has to go.

will the input relay from the effects bypass go to this switch and the out put relay also or will the ouput be left alone on the bypass and the output be ran from the cap switch to the board output? and the 9v + come straight from the dc jack? do I have this right?
