Battery On/Off Switch in NYC Muff

Post by smile_man »

Is this possible?

I know it's silly, but I hate unplugging/plugging in my battery powered Muff every time I go to play. I don't see why it wouldn't work but I don't know where I would put the switch.

thanks.

You can even have the footswitch turn the power on and off if you really want although you'd have to either sacrafice the LED, use a millenium bypass circuit or have a 4PDT foot switch.

Could I also add a pot so I can starve the power?

Did the battery cancellation mod, tried the power starve but wasn't pleased, added a three way switch, up position is momentary and turns on the feedback loop which is also controlled by a pot, middle is regular muff, and down is VOLUME POT BYPASS :evil: :rock:

With delay the momentary feedback loop is like a dub siren. :love:

THIS IS ALL I'VE DONE TODAY.
