JHS Mute Switch Insides

Mardn
hello everybody,
does anyone own a jhs mute switch or has anyone ever opened one?
i built a little mute switch a while ago and it works as far i can tell. just a switch which opens or closes the signalpath and an led indicator.
i now wanna go a little further to kill three signals at one time. has anyone ever done something like that?
also i noticed that somehow a tiny bit of signal goes through...however this happens.
so yeah, i‘m curious what the insides of a industrial manufactured mute switch are or if you guys can help me with some information.
thanks and cheers,
martin

if the switch grounds your output signal it shouldnt have anything passing throught.
atop that by adding a larger switch with more poles you should be able to control more than 1 signal at a time. since you want 3 signals, im guessing you need a 3PDT. each pole for each signal. please correct me if im wrong.

thanks for the reply.
conquered the quest already. just as you say, but with a 4pdt. so can also have an led showing on/off.
still thanks and a good one,
martin
