Need help with "4P3T" switching circut

[Morning_Star]

Sorry for all of the posts lately for stuff I need but I can't find a footswitch button that is 4P3T. Or I was thinking that I could just build a circut that does the same with a momentary switch but I don't know how to do this. Can anyone shed some light. I want to build a footswitch to switch between three different distortion fx and a true bypass so that I don't have a colored sound when not using any of them. I'm putting a "Big Muff", "TS-808", and a "Metal Zone" into one rackmount enclosure so I need a footswitch to select what I want to use.

Please help, thanks....

There isn't any. "footswitch" type push-switches dosen't go beyond 2T.

What you need is a normal footswitch but use relays to become switch extenders
Like this using bypassing

Or use a programmable PIC to select on/off rather than bypass

And putting it all together
