I contemplating building a few pedals where I have two separate Delays (or two reverbs, etc...) in one enclosure... I want it to work so that I can a. use a single footswitch with two settings to active one or the other, or more realistically, b. have two footswitches where I can have 1. Both OFF; 2. Effect A on; 3. Effect B on; 4. Both effects on and stacked.
The idea being that in a gig situation, I often need a "standard" Delay (or reverb ) for most songs.... i.e. a slap back or short delay... but for solos, or, in the case of reverb, for surfier tunes, want to quickly shift to a longer delay or deeper reverb.... I would like to be able to do so with a single foot press that turns on the longer delay while turning off the shorter delay (or deeper verb vs less verb). I don't want to need to press twice (turn off effect A, then turn on effect B).
Is this feasible and, if so, how complex? I could also Forego the "stacked" setting if only 3 options are easier and more reliable.
