So I made some additions to the pedalboard recently but I've run into a bit of a problem. I get a really nice distorted tone using either an OD or dist into my big muff, but since it's a combination of two pedals, it's impossible to switch from clean to that sound with one stomp. My current setup is tuner>octave>3 od pedals > eq>looper. I'd there a pedal I can place before the ODs that will either run the signal through the ODs or bypass them and send my clean signal straight to the eq? It seems like Iwould need two inputs on the eq. Would an a/b pedal on either end of the ODs accomplish this?

A 3PDT footswitch would do the trick

* Guitar signal to pole 1, switch between pedal 1 input and pole 2
* Connect the two pedals together as normal
* Pole 2 would switch between pedal 2 output and pole 1

The other pole could give you an LED indicator with a battery and dropper resistor
