Need advice for ENGL/POD X3 live set-up

Hey guys.
Looking for a bit of advice on my set-up. Pretty much, for live performances I'm looking to use an ABY pedal to switch to my amp (ENGL Invader 150) for distortion/crunch and my soon to be POD X3 for cleans into the PA. It sounds pretty straight forward but I've got a few compromises:
For distortion, I want to use a volume pedal. Would there be a way I can set the POD X3 (which in this scenario would be a floor pod) to JUST FX loop the volume pedal without having to switch channels? or would I have to perform two stomps (ABY then Pod channel change to not loop the clean effects), in which case I'll get a seperate Volume pedal and a Pod x3 Pro (so I can fit it between my engl rig, all nice and pretty).
In essence, I just want to see how diverse the Pod configurations can go.
Cheers for the advice guys!

Hi there,
I won't directly answer your question but - you might run into an issue with hum in the lead chanels when connecting POD and ENGL (as I did) with the 4 cabel method. I gladly found a solution so this might be helpful:

It should also solve similar issues with other preamps / amps that have sensitive inputs.
