lovekraft Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 You can wire anything for "true bypass" - it's not anything you have to design into the circuit, it's simply one way to hook up the switch when you install it in your guitar. Pick a circuit that does what you want it to, and I'll show you how to wire it. No charge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 GeoFX (anyone know if the site is back up yet?) has a VERY simple circuit for doing true bypassing with a switch that doesn't support true bypassing (SPDT I believe). It is something that could be easily done if you can't find a suitable switch or a pedal with true bypassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovekraft Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 All you need for true bypass is a DPDT switch. For that matter, if you use a buffer before the F/X circuit, true bypass won't make any difference anyway. Like improved and fat-free, true bypass means little or nothing without context, except as a marketing tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
