Question: Line Selector Pedals recommendations?

TL/DR version

I'd like a manual pedal with 2 separate loops. What do you recommend that isn't silly money please? Bonus points for anything reasonably priced on Amazon as I have some gift card balance left from Christmas.

Long version

I tried a version of the 4 cable method at rehearsal yesterday and it sounded awesome. Routing was:

Guitar > Pitch Shifter > Wah > Tuner > Amp In > Clean/Dirt all provided by the amp's preamp at the moment > Amp Send > Tank G Modeller pedal performing modulation/delay/reverb duties > Amp Return.

The above is the default way I want to use the rig but as the Tank G is a modeller that supports 9 different amps and IR cabs, and can be loaded with additional profiles, I want the ability to be able to switch out:
  1. The Amp's preamp and use the Tank G's amp models instead.
  2. Switch out the Tank G in the event its internal rechargeable battery dies or it has a brain fart and starts doing weird things.
As the Tank G also has a balanced XLR output for direct connection to a PA/FRFR rig or for recording in addition to the jack output I'm using to return to the amp, I'm also looking at a third case where I can use the board direct without worrying about an amp but then loop 1 would be switched out, loop 2 would switched in but I'd connect an XLR rather than a guitar cable for output.

Any recommendations gratefully received.
 
@jelloman - I had a look at the LS-2 (and the Joyo clone) but it doesn't quite fit the bill on one setting. I'd want the default to have loops A (amp) and B (Tank G) in line, second option to have just loop B in line when I'm using the Tank G's preamp, third option is to have just loop A in line when I use just the amp. Might be useful to be able to bypass both as a fourth option at times.

The two options that I've found on Amazon that seem to fit the bill are:

Mosky Audio Dual Loop Box

Sonicake Portal


Thomann have a Harley Benton box that fits the bill but that's not on Amazon obviously.
