Three button Foot switch

It would be great to add support for a three or four button foot switch. I hate the double tap outro, so have my left foot switch button set for that, but now I’ve lost the accent which is a shame.

Consider adding a midi controller to your setup :yum:

Three button footswitch would require a new physical design for BB with a TRRS socket instead of current TRS socket :thinking:

Doesn’t necessarily need to be a TRRS connection. The Digitech 3 button footswitch uses TRS and does some magic with a pair of diodes to do so. Some logic in the BB would need to be changed in the firmware if it was feasible, but I don’t foresee happening. As you suggested a MIDI controller would be the best way to go.

DIY’d a 3 switch box for my TC Helicon VLP GTX pedal for much less $$ than what real deal goes for.

Ah, that’s clever. Basically the third button sends signal through both tip and ring, which can be detected :yum: Not sure if that would work if you need to press two buttons at the same time :sweat_smile:

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback! I’d recommend considering using the MIDI Maestro for this purpose, as you can program the 6 buttons to your liking. This way, you can customize your setup to suit your needs.
