Momentary TB loop

Post by Bon Hoga »

I need to build a true bypass loop for my Micro Pog, but with a momentary switch. I need to be able to quickly turn the Pog on and off for short "bursts" of octave, but also to have it on for the entire song. Can I use any old TB loop schematic and just pop in a momentary 3PDT instead of a latching?

yes but I prefer it to have only one point of contact when the effect is bypassed. scroll down to my post here. my 3PDT wiring is superior. you can also build the pull down 4.7M resistors in to the send return jacks tip to sleeve. you only need pulldowns if you experience popping. you can also add pull downs to the in and out jacks.
