I have a Liquid Foot Pro midi footcontroller that can accept an external tap tempo box to use in one of the expression ports. I am in the process of making my own footswitch, but I am confused about how to wire it. Here are the details:
The requirements for the footswitch are that I use a double pole-double throw, momentary footswitch (DPDT). I must also use a connector that is a stereo (TRS) jack.
According to the manual, I am supposed to wire the switch so that when it is not being pressed, the wiring should be tip/ring. When the switch is being pressed, the connection should be tip/sleeve. The information for this is provided in the manual on page 26, which is found here:

I purchased a Carling 316-b-pp footswitch (http://www.smallbearelec.com/Detail.bok?no=80) and Neutrik NYS215 jack http://www.smallbearelec.com/Detail.bok?no=773 from Big Bear Electronics to put in my box.
So, I have two questions:
1.) Do I have the correct footswitch and jacks to use?
2.) How do I wire these together now?
THANKS!!!
