Revolution Head footswitch

Post by InlayUSA » Sat Jan 11, 2014 12:20 pm

:cry: Is there any way to activate the reverb/digital delay controls on a Peavey Revolution head without the foot switch? I want to use the digital delay. I can't believe Peavey didn't use a push/pull rotary switch so this feature could be activated without the foot switch. I guess they wanted to make sure you had to buy the foot switch for this amp to use the reverb feature. This is an old amp and I can't find the correct foot switch for this amp anywhere. Peavey doesn't stock it and a web search has revealed nothing. I also have a Peavey JSX, does any one know if that foot switch (has the same DIN connector) could be used to safely activate the reverb feature. Does any one have the correct foot switch for this amp that they want to sell? Thanks!

It appears that the Revolution has two different foot switches. One is the standard Peavey channel select type and the other is the digital effects selector. That one allows you to change the effects in the digital effects.
I assume you are looking for the channels select footswitch, is that correct?
Revolution can you post a photo of your footswitch?
InlayUSA I suggest you request the footswitch schematic from Peavey customer service. I think you will find that the footswitch is a common foot switch, possibly the Stereo Chorus footswitch.
