A few things to add to an otherwise very helpful video:
1) When soldering leads to the switch lugs, it is helpful to make sure the lugs are nice and shiny and not tarnished, as tarnish can slow down solder flow while still conducting heat. Many of us can take a while to get around to using our switches and they can tarnish in the interim. Use a utility knife or similar to scrape away any tarnish, for a faster more problem-free solder joint. Pre-tinning the lugs and the wire you want to solder to them is also helpful.
2) Thanks for mentioning about the incidental liquifying of the grease inside, that can turn it into an insulator. If you DO encounter problems that are grease-related, you can pop the switch open, clean the rocker contacts, and re-assemble the switch, to eliminate the problem. I've done this many times, and helped others salvage a well-loved pedal that had gone AWOL due to errant switch-grease. Just realize that the tabs holding the two halves of the switch together DO NOT like being bent very far or very often. Be gentle prying them and only bend them as far as you need to to wriggle the contact half out.
I have a few more things noted in this video - ruclips.net/video/6uhDKFhqYnw/видео.html - but DIY GP covers most of what you need to know.
Mark, your video was the catalyst for my switch dissecting obsession :) you should make more videos, your knowledge is vast and invaluable.
@@DiyguitarpedalsAu Thanks. You're very kind. Keep up the good work. I may know a buncha stuff, but your regular channel videos attract views and THAT gets the knowledge out to more folks, which is important.
@@DiyguitarpedalsAu Olá amigo, estou com dois pedal com problema no footswitch, na hora que aciona que aciona a chave dá um estalo,como fasso?
This channel is amazing. Every time I think of a topic you have a video on it.
Melted the contacts of two switches on the second pedal I ever built, since then I've been using 3PDT breakout boards to make the soldering easier on myself. Love the fact that the breakout boards I've been using have three ground contacts, it's also simplified my wiring quite a bit.
Helpful and well explained 🙌
im making a delay pedal so thank you so much for the last 2 videos
Many thanks for sharing this video. After watching it I understood how they worked which allowed me to modify an on/on dpdt switch I bought by mistake into an on/off switch by straightening the "rockers" inside the switch.
Hello Paul, Once you know how they work, your set. You take the mystery out of it for those who may not know. As a sub for many, many years, Thank you for sharing this and all your other videos on DIY Guitar Pedals. Glad your doing well. Winter in Australia, Summer in Oregon has been cool so far. All the best, C
Hello fellow Oregonian!
Just wanted to say thanks mate, these videos have been invaluable to my knowledge in diy pedals. If I may suggest a video, I’m at the point where instead of using transistors for boosts/preamps/overdrives i’d like to try tl072/tl071 style Ic’s, only thing is that the schematic image doesn’t make all that much sense to me. An instructional like this explaining which pin does what and where it goes in the circuit (positive, line input, ground ect) or even how to design the circuit around one would be amazing! Anyway mate! Keep up the great work! Also Would love to see some 5mm and 3mm pink/magenta LEDs in the store too 🤪 cheers bud!

Great video my friend.
Good to see you still post
4:10 valuable tip. One of the mistakes that I made on my first pedal
Thank you so much, you helped me fix my pedal really easy.
It's helpful, thank you

I had trouble getting the little tabs to hold once I had pried on them. Ended up having to shim the bottom of the switch so it wouldn't just pop out every time I pressed it.
Thank you. Is there a follow up video that goes through what happens via the wiring (from footswitch to main PCB board, input/output, power) each time the footswitch is depressed?
thank you....
is the a momentary one of thease that still has the click ?
I have a noise gate pedal, its an always on pedal, now the engage button is acting up, can I remove it just connect all wires to turn it literally as an always on pedal?
Is there a sort of switch that you could trigger (enable / disable) with a mosfet or something? So that you could switch a switch with an Arduino or something?
I wonder wether instead of replacing the whole switch when it malfunctions, it would be much easier to open the new switch and swap the internal components? That way you don’t need to solder anything
That's not a knife, this is a knife....
Thanks for this information! I'm still wondering though, when modding a guitar pedal to a Eurorack module, is it possible to change the 3PDT footswitch with a Toggle Switch? That would make a ton more sense in my system, but i'm not sure if it is possible. I find a lot of 9-pin toggle switches online, many are ON-ON or ON-OFF-ON etc, what do I need? I have a feeling it won't work the way I want it to.
I'm trying to make a double a/b switch (mono in a/b out and a/b in mono out with TS on all ins and outs) with a TRS jack to receive signal for a/b positions. Does anyone know how this would be wired? I understand using an actual stomp switch but how the hell can I take an on/off control signal from a Boss ES-8 and make it work with the a/b?
Can you help or give me an idea on how to build a bypass loop switch but it should activate 1 delay and 1 OD(boost) assuming my signal chain is Guitar -> OD(boost) -> Main Dirt(distortion) -> delay -> Amp. My goal is to activate those 2 pedals in just 1 click? is it possible? im thinking of using 5pdt?
Thanks.
could I make an on/off pedalboard footswitch using one of these and two of the DC female pieces you show at the beginning of the video?
Any idea when you will get new stock of pcbs?
Hi Poivo, which PCB are you after?
DIY Guitar Pedals night drive and a tone master mate
@@poivognome792 ok no problem. I have pcbs available, just not kits. If you want the pcbs send me a message through the webstore and we can work it out. Cheers (Paul) www.diyguitarpedals.com.au/shop/index.php?main_page=contact_us
Nice video! Is there a way to convert this one in a momentary switch by modifying any of those components?
We'll be releasing a "Dumb ByPass" here soon which does exactly that.
@@erikvincent5846 woo ill be waiting that :D
Man can you please remake a boost pedal build video? Make it all step by step and right so newbie diy pedal builders can build it too? Please
Here am i can't even solder properly
