Arcade buttons

[krsdrm]

I have a keyboard player friend that wants a Superheterodyne but wants a softer more hand friendly on/off switch. I've seen arcade style buttons used on pedals but I can't seem to find any data sheets on them. I'm just curious if they'd work with the relay bypass module?

Most of them seem to be momentary SPST switches. Which ones are you looking at?

I wasn't really looking at anyone in particular the one I did find an actual name for was the Sanwa OBSF-30. I was just going to see what the best deal I could find was. I just couldn't find anywhere where any of them would say it used a momentary SPST switch. They all seemed to be the same functionally so I could find what one was I felt pretty confident they all would be just wasn't happening for me.

As noted, arcade buttons are momentary. Push in the button, the flipper goes up, release and the flipper drops. : ^ ) So --- you could use one of those with an electronic relay switch and it would certainly be finger friendly and look cool if you had enough room in the enclosure for the button.

You could potentially use a momentary arcade switch with the Relay Bypass Module.

Yeah it should be fine.

Yep, they should work fine.
