I recently purchased a Rev G Dual Rectifier, but it did not come with the footswitch. I'm a little confused by the setup, there's a single footswitch plug in the front, but also two on the back divided into fx/loop and channel. The two footswitches I have don't work when plugged into any of these. It seems Mesa doesn't make the exact two button footswitch for this any more so I was wondering what my options were as for something that could do the channel switching and the loop control. I also build guitar pedals so if someone has a diagram or could just take a picture of the inside of theirs that would be helpful.

Would any of these work?

Hello, You can use any ffotswitch in front of the amp. BUT : You should not use any footswitch with LED in the rear connectors. the switching system can not provide any intensity (mA) to light the LED.

In fact, it can, but how long ? It's not recommended by Mesa.

Hi,
sounds like you have some electronic background....

I recently developed a wiresless footswitch for a 'Recto-VerbTwenty-Five' - the nice thing is, that it will not only switch channel or reverb but also the channel sound settings (clean/pushed, vintage/modern) - so it basically turns the amp into a pseudo 4 channel amp...and this with NO cables between the amp and the footswitch ;-)

Let me know if you would be interested and I can share some details...
