3PDT PCB Adaptation

[esmooov]

Hey all,

I just started my first PedalPCB build (but I have built a bunch of pedals and modules before). Unfortunately, PedalPCB was sold out of the 3pdt breakout boards. That said, I have a tons of these 3pdt boards (LINK) and was wondering if anyone could help me convert from the one wiring to the other. The board and jack in and outs (as well as the ground is pretty obvious) but I was wondering where I should connect the SW and the power. Should I ignore the power wiring on the PedalPCB board and take the DC + into the breakout and then wire the breakout's V+ in the PedalPCB board's + (at the top of the board). (I guess then I would just wire the - across to breakout's ground?

I guess I could always just wire straight to the switch but I'd love to know how to make this conversion! I'm trying to learn more about how these boards actually work instead of just following instructions.

Best,
Erik

I should add that I also grabbed a few of these https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/3pdt-led-1/ Would I be able to use this or easily modified it to use a standard footswitch? That might be easier than modifying the other board?

You can just install a jumper wire across the two pads for the LED on that one and it'll be a direct fit.

Oh that's great. Thank you!
