Re-work of the V4L concept

Nice.  Dual footprints for the tacts please...

I can try, what's your preference? Anything but TL1100, they go dodgy after a few years.

See here also:

 

The 6mm ones are fine, same as the orginal except with the correct footprint. Lots of options there

6mm ones with pin spacing of 6.5/4.5mm? 

Not sure if the fab will like the overlapping drill hits...

 

Do you have an example layout or know of a board house that will do them?

You know, dont even bother.. Those look like C&K D6R90 which are a buck each anyway

Sadly no difference as the D6 pads are on square. I've got something workable just moving the other switch up 1.5 1.6mm, should be fine!

like I said, dont bother.  Those switches are a good choice and there really isnt anything to be gained here with multiple footprints.  Looks at smashes SEQV4 CS board for a perfect example of multiple footprints for one switch

It works with some creative pad arranging! 

 

But I agree, the D6 buttons are pretty good (I gave a few reasons in the V4L thread). In saying that they are quite tall (better for raised front panels though) and do have a bit of slop when pressed, so another option's not a bad thing.
