I use this switch to kill the signal from my headset mic, and it sits on the floor directly to the left of my hi-hat stand. It's a quality product; built like a tank. Only problem is, on a dark stage, it's hard to tell if the switch is engaged, because the button isn't tactile enough to be felt through the sole of my shoe. My only alternative is to quietly check my headset mic, but no one wants to hear endless "check, check" all night. How about a light that tells the user when the switch is engaged/disengaged? I doubt it's would add a whole lot to the cost. Otherwise - I'm still happy with my purchase. I have no other issues with its performance.
