That is lovingly low-tech, Rick!
But last time I ran that set-up and had a volume pedal on each line, one volume pedal would override the other so I couldn't just have one line but had to have both.
Maybe there was a matching problem - can't recall if my cables were trs or not...

Or would you sing somethin' different. Somethin' real. Somethin' *you* felt. Cause I'm telling you right now, that's the kind of song people want to hear. That's the kind of song that truly saves people. It ain't got nothin to do with believin' in God, Mr. Cash. It has to do with believin' in yourself. Sam Phillips, "Walk the Line"

This may be ridiculously lo fi, but what I do in my 'rhythm n' noise' project 'aEther Engine' is to take a simple
y-chord straight out of my Strat (male 1/4" into Strat, two female 1/4" out to two guitar cables;
1) one line going to treble oriented noise/slicin' dicing effects table and then onto a tiny 5 watt, Vox guitar amp and
2) the other line going through bass oriented octaver/noise/slicin' dicin' effects table and then onto a tiny 5 watt
Roland Bass Cube.
I mic each of these amps (and have them up on keyboard stands so that they are at a perfect height for me to walk straight up to them for
controlled feedback
effects) and send the two mic-ed channels through my Looperlative and on into the main P.A.
It works great for me.
I have complete volume control of the two channels by merely controlling the output volume of the little cube amps.
