  I'm currently using the Boss FS-5U as an AUX tap tempo switch on my TimeFactor. I use an Axess Midi footcontroller for bypass/preset selection. This works perfectly for me. Excellent job guys!!
  
  I'm currently having a pedal made that has an external tap tempo jack. I'm hoping to split the cable from the FS-5U and send it to both the Timefactor and this new pedal. The builder says it will work as long as the other pedal uses a standard 5 volt tap signal (similar to a Boss DD-5 among others).
  
  I've split a tap tempo with a DD-5 and a DD-20 and had great results.
  
  Does this sound like it will work for the Timefactor? Does it use a standard 5V signal from the AUX? Has anybody else done something similar?
  
  Thanks all!

  I had a passive dual tempo switch made for me by Andi at MonkeyFX
  
  It's just two sets of contacts under a single footswitch…and it's sparkly purple.

  Timefactor will be happy with a 5V AUX input. Note that the active value is 0V, typically a short to ground.For this reason, the passive approach is good.
