So i'm working on a mod for a guitar delay pedal.
it has a 10k pot that controls feedback.
I essentially want to wire in a stereo audio jack which will connect to my expression pedal which is just a potentiometer controlled with my foot, to control
the points that normally connect to the 10k pot on the board.
Now thing is i know it will work if i completely disregard the 10k pot.
What I have been pondering is if i wire the points to the audio jack, and then from the audio jack back to the 10k pot on board, when I plug the expression pedal in, will it only read from the expression pedal, or both the 10k pot and expression pedal?
Im sitting here with everything I need to do it and have already tested that it works by attaching some probes from the expression pedals male jack onto where the 10k pot is, and it works but only lets me go as far as the 10k pot is turned.
Im just trying to make sure all of my ducks are in order before i commit and solder it all in.
So will it work or am I missing something?
I mean I know I could just put a switch in to flip between the 10k pot and stereo audio jack, but if it would work as is and read only from the stereo audio jack when the expression pedal is plugged in, and then go back to the 10k when unplugged that would be wonderful.
I dont have a way to like show a schematic or anything so I hope I have written out what I'm trying to accomplish well enough.
