How do I set MiniSwitch to be used as a Favorite switch?

MiniSwitch can be used as a Favorite preset select switch with Brigadier, Deco, DIG, El Capistan, Flint, Lex, and Riverside.

MiniSwitch can also be used to engage the Boost feature on Riverside.

By default, MiniSwitch ships from the factory in Favorite/Boost mode. You do not need to adjust the internal jumper on MiniSwitch unless you have already switched to Tap Tempo mode.

To switch back to Favorite mode:

  1. Unscrew the four screws on the bottom of the chassis.
  2. Once opened, locate the small jumper underneath the circuit board and switch it from the center and left pins to the center and right pins. Please see the image below.


Once you have your MiniSwitch configured to Favorite/Boost mode, you still need to make sure your Strymon pedal is configured to recognize the switch.
