How would I adapt this to have a pedal circuit that is always in between loop A and loop B?

So, let's call them loop A and C.  You want to be able to have A->B->C, C->B->A, A->B, or C->B ?

In my use case the last two scenarios are not necessary although I am curious now how that would be done as well, it may come in handy later.  I only need the options A->B->C and C->B->A though, I am trying to use a bicolor led(w/common anode) in place of the dual led to indicate which of these two orders is currently active.

I'm no expert, but I don't see a way to do the switching without using all four throws for audio, meaning you have none left for an LED. Excuse the terrible mouse drawn diagram, but I think this should work. I don't love the crisscrossed stuff, but maybe there's an alternate way.

I came across these schematics which use 4053 and 4066 chips as 3PDT switches, using two of them you could then create a 6PDT stomp switch.  I need help turning this into a layout though, I'm still pretty new to this.

Here's the links where I came across these.
