Remote switching a stomp box

[Apebot]

I want to put the guts of a Phase 90 and an M-80 in an old rack tuner chassis, hardwire them together, and hit on/off (there are three separate on/off controls total) from a remote footswitch. I can do the chassis installation. I could just put all the original footswitches together in one pedal, but i don't want the instrument signal to run all the way out to the footswitch (it would sort of defeat the purpose of the project). I don't know much about relays or other remote switching, but it seems like thats what i have to do - can anyone offer advice or point me at a good educational resource?

Thanks!

RG's site is full of great info. I have tried several of his ideas and they work great. The projects also have different levels of difficulty, so if you need something simple, it's there, or if you want something more advanced, it's there also. Check it out, everything you're looking for is there.
