Hi,

just purchased my Vox AD30VT, and I love it.

It's just the optional Vox pedal's price is crazy, like 45 euros or so :eek:
I happen to have some on/off switches lying around here (those nice metal stomp buttons), but if someone who has the original pedal could check this for me:

There are two buttons, one for switching channels, one for activating manual mode (and bypassing effects, different story).

Anyway, I know we're dealing with a stereo jack plug, and the CH switch connects the Tip to the Sleeve or to the Ring (as I found out using my sustain pedal, which only has a tip and sleeve).

(attached image 1)

Now, does the second button connect the Ring to the Sleeve, or the Ring to the tip?

(attached image 2)

switch one: tip to sleeve (or ring?)
switch two: ?

You should be able to check this using an ohms-meter.

Thank you very much
Stan.

Okay, for anyone interested (don't think so but okay) I found out the solution:

CH switch: Tip-Sleeve
Bypass Switch: Ring-Sleeve
