I picked up an ibanez ddl delay a month or so ago, and I'm wondering how to add a little toggle switch to keep the loop going when the pedal is in hold mode without having to keep my foot on the switch.
I saw one for sale on kijiji with this mod done, so I know its possible, but without an easy schematic I'm pretty lost. I tried emailing the seller but he never responded. Any ideas?
ibanez ddl hold mode switch?

Re: ibanez ddl hold mode switch?
This should work...Follow the traces directly from the bypass switch, and add your toggle after it, but before the rest of the circuit. The bypass switch is momentary, so the toggle would "lock it" in a sense. You'd have to hit the toggle again to turn it off though. Maybe use a foot switch instead.

I might be able to squeeze in a footswitch where the battery snap is. Gonna open it up and take a look. Thanks for the help.
