How about: have two signal chains going through the box, one of which has an effects loop and pressing one button switches the outputs. Or is that what you're planning on doing already?

Switching one pedal between 2 fx chains???

There are probably plenty of ways of doing this, including using 2 true bypass loops, one in each chain, which would let either chain access it (or both chains) but that's a bit messy to my mind. I think that I can use 1 QPDT to do it (I'm not flash with electronics, but if I sit down and draw it out it seems like it would work) with the flick of one switch.
My scheme becomes ever more grandiose the more I think about it... I'm now wondering about incorporating a switch that would let me divert the highs from the bass chain to go through the whole of the guitar chain so as well as being able to run seperate signal chains (with the headrush being interchangable between the chains but never available to both simultaneously), I can also do the biamp thing I can do now...
