The Saturnworks tap tempo with reversible polarity pedal allows you to set the delay rate for a variety of effects pedals including the Boss DD-5, DD-7, DD-20, RC-2, and RC-3, or any pedal that requires a standard normally closed (NC) OR normally open (NO) tap tempo, such as devices from MXR, Dunlop, Electro-Harmonix, and many other brands. It can replace the Boss FS-5U for momentary switching applications.
The pedal's toggle switches the polarity between normally open and normally closed. Boss uses normally closed switches for tap or momentary switching applications, while most other brands including MXR, Dunlop, Electro-Harmonix, Line 6, JHS, as well as most boutique brands, use normally open switches.
