Building your own footswitch (RJ-45 pinout)

Some players just want a footswitch that does one thing — totally doable. Wire an RJ-45 connector using the pin assignments below. > Note: Color codes are for EIA/TIA 568-A cable. Brown is always ground. Touch the other colors to brown to confirm the trigger function. Control current is 3 mA, fine for any relay or active pull-down circuit. Mach 3 and OverDrive 202: - White/Green — Boost - Green — Limiter - White/Orange — Tremolo - Blue — Reverb - White/Blue — FX Loop - Orange — Ch 1-2 (Mach 3 needs a 1K resistor in series) - White/Brown — Reserved - Brown — Ground MicroPro 200: - Orange/White — Boost - Orange — Limiter - Green/White — Tremolo - Blue — Reverb - Blue/White — FX Loop - Green — Mode (requires a 1K resistor from Pin 6 to ground; only on Gen 1 MicroPro) - Brown/White — not used - Brown — Common Ground
