Working on a bass idea, and while I’m good with a soldering iron, my knowledge of how to build circuits and such is lacking.

The bass will be a PJ pickup configuration, with Seymour Duncan QP pickups. Controls I want a single volume and a 3-way switch.

I want the switch to be 1 - Neck, 2 - both pickups parallel, 3 - both pickups in series.

Is this possible with a standard 3-way toggle? If so, can someone point me at a diagram?

Thanks

Hello all!

Gigging bassist here, been using the HX Stomp for years and love it. I use a dual expression switch to have 5 footswitches, and I recently got a DMC Micro Pro to utilize for patch changes. My cover band has all kinds if tunings from standard to ADGC. I have a bank of 8 presets that are identical except for the pitch shift block. Preset 60 is standard tuning, no pitch shift. 61 is -1 pitch, 62 is -2, and so on to 67.

The issue I’m running into is in between songs when I’m scrolling from one tuning to another but they are frequently not syncing. Let’s say I go from P60 to P62. The midi controller shows P62, but the HX has only changed to P61. I have to tap dance back and forth until the midi and HX line up and the pitch block is correct. This has been a big whoopsie a couple times launching into a song and being in the wrong tuning.

Any thoughts or help is appreciated, I am new to MIDI so feel free to test me as a noob.

Thanks

EDIT: Couple things on the rig:

- The whole board is Shure GLXD+, into the HX Stomp with the DMC Pro, into an Aguilar Tone Hammer DI.

- Everything is using a Strymon Zuma power supply, and the HX is getting a current-doubled line to have enough mA.

- Using 5-pin midi cable
