So I've finally got my Vibrotone switching mechanism into a box with the switching broken out via a stereo jack socket so any dual footswitch can be used (or any ext. switching mechanism, eg. the remote switches on my G2).
The switching is very simply, and essentially looks like this:
-----------------o / tip (slow/fast)
/
-----------------o common
\
-----------------o \ ring (off/on)
When a circuit is closed, the connected relay closes (it's switching mains voltage).
The way I've designed the switching, there is +12v supplied to both the tip and ring. I'm trying to figure out how to use that voltage to light an LED.
All I can think of doing is putting the LED in-line with each loop, eg. something like this:
------+LED+------o / tip (slow/fast)
/
-----------------o common
\
------+LED+------o \ ring (off/on)
However, that means the switching won't work if the LED fails.
I guess I can live with that, but is there some other way to do this?
R.
