timefactor aux pedal

[copachino]

hi, all i have a time factor delay and a dd7 delay, the thing its i want to control tap tempo with just one switch and the preset with another one, but i want the tap tempo for both pedals to be the same, i have two carling SPSt NO switches, but im no so sure about the wiring, do i connect one switch lugs to tip and ground, so when i push the switch the delay take ground reference to change the tap??, and i put a diode on the second switch for another reference for the delays to know i want to change banks or pressets??, im a bit confused in here, also for the delays wil be the same wiring but different output ans same switches, so the output jacks will be only connected one to each other.

i dont own a timefactor but a quick looks suggests the aux switch input may be kind of complex. i would suggest making a little schematic of the expected switching action of both pedals and seeing if these are compatible (they may not be).

other options might be to find a dpst switch (you may be able to find an industrial switch that could work but it won't be purpose-designed for being stepped on), or just mount two spst's very close to each other so both can be pressed at the same time.

Or you could just jump up and down on both pedals as part of your act...

I built an aux switch that works perfectly with my timefactor. It only takes a jack, a few momentary spst switches and 2 or 3 diodes. I believe I used the digitech FS3X schematic, but I don't remember for sure. You may be able to use a dpdt for the tap switch and send it off through another jack. I'm not sure. It's an intriguing idea for sure.

I built a pedal similar to what you are planning.  I posted it over at BYOC a while back.  It has a description of how I did it in the write-up.  Here is a link: http://www.byocelectronics.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=42323&sid=30fd1a2823ef4a14082fb0bb6b53f94c
