i have a fx75 dod flanger, of the 1984 vintage i think. it has SPEED, WIDTH, REGEN.
anyhow, the switch is just %&#@*!. (sorry for cussing like they do in the cartoons...).
i have thought about hard wiring a new MXR or EH style footswitch to this, but i have a couple of questions first.
1. there is a big rectangular hole when you remove the existing switch. i assume there is no remedy for this? i am not a welder....so, i assume RE-HOUSING is in order?
2. if i wire a CLICKABLE foot switch to this, i already assume i need to wire at least one cap in there to dampen the cliick in the amp...is there a practical cap value?
i am sure SOMEBODY must have dealt with this issue.
in the 70s and early 80s, DOD had some warm, ballsy stomp boxes. anything past the late 80s was so weak, it was almost not even there! (i had the dark blue chorus box, i forgot the number...it was ultra lame!).
thanks!
