Thanks! you gave up the funny big letters, Steve? I started really liking them ;-) Its obvious that you need a better solution. Better switches do exist. Apparently they are too expensive for manufacturing, but certainly not for you with all those hassles. I am not familiar with the US part market, but I am sure that someone on this list knows a better solution. The conditions are simple: - short action to be rithmically acurate - resistent. I keep repeating: At Paradis we used to modify a Bespeco (Roland kind) of Foot Switch with a tiny disc switch like used in computer keyboards. The are sealed and thus dont oxidate, have the nice short action and cost almost nothing. But they need protection. The Bespeco switch has this large plastic lever and with two aditional plastic pieces it can be modified to the action of the new switch (we actually bought 100 of them unmounted, to have them cheaper) This would be a decent and usefull business for some unemployed silicon person! -- ---> http://Matthias.Grob.org
