Foot switch/Sustain pedal

Pehr

Does anyone know how those Foot switch/Sustain pedals that uses 1/4" jacks work? do they just short the tip and sleeve? Confused

If so it would be easy to make one... Rolling Eyes

In a word, yes. That's how they work, by shorting tip and sleeve.

However, some work by un-shorting the tip and sleeve.

Depends on whether it is "normally open" or "normally closed".
