True By-Pass Help

metallist · #1 07-01-2009, 07:32 PM

Is it possible to make a non-true by-pass pedal (in this case a Zoom 708II) to a true by-pass?

This pedal is really annoying - it has some pretty usable settings, but it sucks the hell out of you're tone!

Thanks in adance for you're assistance!

I think the easiest way to go about his would be to build or buy a true bypass looper. Somehow I think trying to mod that thing wouldn't be fun or worth it in the end.

There are a few sites that tell you how to build them and they are a supper easy build: GGG's version also look around http://www.diystompboxes.com there is tons of info there on the subject.

Or buy one like from loopmaster

Sweet - thanks for the help!

Say if I wanted to tinker with the mutli-pedal; what would I need to do?

+1 for a looper.

Modding the bypass mechanism for a pedal with an A/D/A converter will be incredibly strenuous, to say the least.

Cool - looks like a looper is the way to go!

Going to go with GGG version; doesn't look that difficult to construct!

Dead thread - please delete!

THANKS!!!!

Nope, no delete. We want pics. No pix=no loop pedal. Sorry, it's the rules.
