Loop Pedal with Original Signal Thru (?)

Hi guys. I've been looking for a pedal that will allow me to achieve essentially this:

Where I can have an original signal (green) be combined with a loop (red) via either a momentary switch or a combo tb/momentary (does such a thing even exist). Obviously with the addition of a volume pedal one would be able to blend in the signal passing through the loop while the original signal would be untouched. So it would essentially split the input and return a combined signal.

Am I making any sense? Does such a thing exist? I guess the closest I've found is this guy, but it doesn't appear to be for sale. Thanks for any guidance, ILF. :hug:

the last project on my page is a buffer splitter 2 input mixer clean blend thing. you would just build it into a wah enclosure with a 25K pot. the wah treadle replaces the one pot on the blender. very simple yet effective design. I also included the phase switch so it works no matter what pedals you put in the loop. cutting up the volume pedal or building from scratch your choice. I like using broken dunlop crybaby on ebay. you can replace the footswitch with a latching true bypass 3PDT. full kit available.

So, EYG, this preserves the original signal and allows for the wah to blend in whatever is in the "loop"? Am I understanding that correctly?

yes, it is exactly what you need and even included the phase switch. I have been down that road before. this is it.
