Hello, I am new to this, so I hope I am following all rules correctly. I hope to wire 2 leslie 2-speed tremolo speaker units in such a fashion that would allow me to operate them with a foot switch (or foot switches, if necessary). These units are rotosonics (circa 1960's) and they actually spin a drum containing a speaker at 2 different speeds using two different ac motors. I believe they are single-phase, since they have only two wires running to each motor. I have wired each one with a toggle switch that lets me select which motor/speed I want with off in the middle. This works fine, but I want to go a step further and use a treadle switch {on (mom) - off - on (mom)} so that I can change speeds during a song without using my hands (I will be playing a guitar). I recently bought a pair of these treadle switches with the following description: Metal case, Rocker action Medium duty foot switch for industrial use. Momentary in either direction, spring return to center OFF. Contacts: DPDT Mom-Off-Mom380VAC/220DC @ 5A. The wiring diagram is also attached. Everything I can find concerning DPDT switches and ac motors concerns reversing the motor direction (something I may want to do later, but not now). I would prefer to be able to control these two sets of motors independently so that I could have the two units spinning at different rates simultaneously, if possible. It seems to me that I should be able to somehow accomplish this with these two treadle DPDT switches, but I don't want to trial and error with 120 volt ac. Using the attached info, could anyone help me to accomplish this by instructing me on wiring these up? Thanks in advance. And if I am totally off base on my thinking here in any way, I gladly accept constructive criticism.
