Anyone able to loan me a dual footswitch?

[Quatschmacher]

Hi all,

 

I'm doing a bit of product testing and realised I don’t have a set of dual footswitches (TRS) to test some of the functions. Is there anyone in the Sheffield area who might be able to loan me one for a week or so? 
 

Thanks in anticipation.

Sorry, dear Q, I am not able to help you, but please specify latching or non-. Might help with the offers.

I’m not sure if the type matters as the device I’m testing will allow both I think.

Managed to borrow a single one from a friend so all is good. I can just pull the cable out slightly to use it as the second switch.

Tricky just before that big solo.

Haha. I meant just for testing purposes. Although I’m sure there could be a cool Heath-Robinson-style solution. Someone with art skills needs to do a Heath Robinson pedalboard.

I've got a dual footswitch, but I'm a bit too far away - would have gladly loaned it if close by - would even have posted it down if necessary.  Let me know if you still need a shottie of it, happy to help.  I never use it - on my amp all it triggers is mute or a single eq change (a passive tone knob in effect - which I never use).

Thanks. I think the single one will cover almost everything I need to test. There’s one function which requires both but I’ll ask one of the other testers to check that feature for me.
