WTB: is this gear exist at all ?

Hi there ! It might be the wrong category but 
Anyway I am looking for a pedal that take the place of my clean/disto footswitch, and have a gain reduction when I am on the clean channel only.
To be more specific the thing is that my amp (manual : https://englamps.de/wp-content/uploads/OM_E320-II_Thunder_50_Reverb_E322___E325_Thunder.pdf) have the same gain for the clean and the distortion channel. In order to have enough drive, I have to set the gain to a relatively high value. But sadly, the clean channel become like an overdrive. So I would have the possibility to switch from a high gain distortion channel to a very low gain clean in on push.
My Idea is a pedal with :
- An input for the guitar
- An output for the guitar
- An input to link to the footswitch output of my amp
- A gain potentiometer or fader or whatever that only reduce the gain when I am on the clean channel only
- If possible a led to indicate distortion channel active
- If possible, an effect loop for the clean channel only
- A proper said foot switch like in any pedal
In some ways, my need is similar to this pedal : https://www.fortinamps.com/product/mini-grind/ beside this one is a clean boost and note a clean "reduce" (and there is no effect loop). But there is the magical footswitch input !
Do you all know if such a pedal even exist ? Or can I ask some gears geek to build one like that for a faire price ?
Who ?
many thanks
A small scheme attach to be clear.
EDIT : Scheme could be disturbing, so it is understand that the "footswitch" input is a 24V line that can be link to the jack ground or not with the foot switch.
