A premium momentary switch for those formal occasions.

The Saturnworks black micro soft-touch tap tempo 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 switch. It can also be used as an external control switch with compatible devices.

New starting January 2021: upgraded soft touch momentary switches! We are now installing new higher-grade soft touch momentary switches in our soft touch momentary applications. We were able to source a higher quality soft touch momentary switch than any switch we've used previously. Our new switch is both very quiet and beefier than other soft touch momentary switches we’ve seen on the market.

The black version also features a powder coated black enclosure, and an upgraded premium Switchcraft USA jack.  

The default switch for this tap tempo is a normally closed (NC) switch. This configuration replaces the FS-5U for Boss and Roland devices.

Most brands other than Boss, such as Electro-Harmonix, Line 6, MXR, and most boutique pedal brands use (NO) normally open tap tempos. If your device calls for a normally open tap tempo, this pedal can be set up as normally open as well. Just send a message after you check out to specify that you would like a normally open switch. 

Please note: Strymon devices require a special TRS setup. If you'd like a tap tempo set up for Strymon, please message us after you check out to request a Strymon configuration.
