A big shout out to Persist for responding with links providing info on where to find Mike Tranchemontagne’s great write up and instructions on how to convert the original BB Footswitch from latching to momentary footswitches. I ordered the new momentary footswitches a week ago and installed them this afternoon. Cost me $6 + shipping and about 20 minutes time this afternoon to perform the retrofit. I tested the BB out on the old firmware this afternoon and everything worked great once I redifined the switch type under the BB menu. I hope to have time to download the new firmware this weekend and try it out.
Thanks again for the assistance. As Mike says, Rock On!
Cheers!
