@eric.kiser This is actually the one that I ordered and then cancelled because I didn’t think it would work with the SR-18. Are you sure it would work? I also posted this question on the Amazon product page.
Seriously, it can’t be that complicated, it’s only a wire or two and maybe some shielding. Cut the cable a few inches from the jack, cut out the length you need to from the remaining cable, strip the outer cable cover from the ends you are going to connect, strip the individual wires, match them up, twist and then solder together, use electrical tape (or heat-shrink if you’re really fancy) to keep them from touching each other, wrap the whole splice with electrical tape and you’re done. 5 minutes tops, if you preheat your soldering iron. I often splice 48 conductor cable at work, and if I can do it…
I didn’t think it would work either. Then I had the thought of using the TRS cable and that adapter to split the two signals out to the separate ports on the Alesis.
Are you saying plug the TRS cable into the A/B port, and then split it with the adapter and plug those two males into the 2 ports on the SR-18? That would work?
Hey @eric.kiser I got the Nux dual footswitch today, and it works perfectly. I didn’t even need the TRS cable or the adapter, I just plugged a mono cable into each of the ports on the footswitch (A & A/B) and into the SR-18. Works like a charm. Those two big pedals are on their way back to Amazon. No more mess of zip tied cables under the board LOL.
Thanks @eric.kiser. I’m thinking I will probably go with the TRS cable to the adapter though. That way I have one cable running from the pedal board to the drum machine instead of two. I ordered a 10 foot TRS cable from Amazon for that purpose.
It nice that it works with either setup. When I read their information, they made it sound like the A&B port would only work with a TRS cable. I thought that sounded strange.
