Questions on buttons / switches

Parts Questions

Hi, I’m not sure if this has been asked before, feel free to shout at me if it has :stuck_out_tongue:

I was wondering what buttons people have been using on their midiboxes - I plan to make a SID with the step A CS, then upgrade eventually to the fully-featured step C. Specifically, I was wondering what type Thorsten used on his own SID.

I’ve been looking at these:

and these:

I’m just wondering if 0.25mm is going to be enough travel for use on a CS, I’m hoping for a similar feel to the buttins (not footswitches) on my Zoom 4040 guitar FX unit.

Thanks for the help,

Dan.

Hi Dan,

the links are not working (propably because these are temporary URLs), to which part # are you refering for?

Best Regards, Thorsten.

Oops… The parts are # 700460 - 62 (push button T602, though I think this may be a little small) and 700479 - 62 (pushbutton T604 = TS695)
