Wiring the leprechauns magic switch with switch PCB

[MacGuffin_]

I am wondering if you can wire the leprechauns magic switch using one of these breakout boards?

As far as I understand wiring the 4 pads to IN -> far left (jack in) ->far right (jack out) -> OUT would work for switching, but for the LED could I wire led+ (A) to SW and led- (K) to GND? Or would that break something?

Without a schematic, its tough to tell. The problem is, that board shorts the input to ground in bypass. ( pin 1 shorts to pin 6 in one position.) It would work if you didn't hook up the LED, or at least don't hook to the ground pad.

Would be more fun to use the intelligent relay bypass module, then you could have momentary functionality.
But I'm not sure if it doable either. Just woke up and don't want to think too hard just yet...
I *think* (barely) that channel switching mode may work.

Yep

I know, there's other threads! And I done checked 'em! And I'm enough of a noob to have questions remaining! I'm building a Leprechaun and trying to install an Intelligent Relay Bypass module on the Regen/Magic switch.

1) This is the style of switched TRS jack I got. I'm looking at the diagram on the LMS page I ordered it from and I have no idea how to discern which tip is the switched one. Which is it?


2) I ordered the Intelligent Relay Bypass Module and ordered some of these normally-open momentary SPST jawns. Is that a mismatch? Did I fuck up?
3) If said module...

Nice!

See post 5, this pinout is compatible with the 3PDT and Relay Bypass breakout boards.

Easy enough. Remove your wires and use the outer 4 pads of the breakout board, ignoring the center two (GND/SW).

They'll still connect straight across, pad for pad.

Alright so like this? (pardon the crude drawing)

Probably, but I already drilled the holes for 2 switches so /shrug

sweet, ill just wire the LED directly to the pins to avoid any issues, doesnt add too much extra mess inside
