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.
