The Radial Bassbone is a great affordable tool for doublers. Only one channel has rotary EQ controls, but in my experience that works just fine. Really good DI too. http://www.radialeng.com/product/bassbone-v2

I'm a big fan of Radial! I have their ProDI stereo and the JDI Duplex, which is really nice (although I don't know if I'd use it with a passive instrument).

These Radial pedals seem really versatile, I checked out a few models on YouTube. The one that appeals the most to me tone wise is the firefly. Unfortunately, it’s out of my price range. Is it just how they’re represented on YouTube or do they really sound that different? The firefly seems to have an extra dimension to its sound.

I have been very happy with the Radial Bassbone OD when I need to switch between Alembic and upright for a show.  Two separate channels with full EQ and a mute for tuning.  One channel is set up to have the proper input impedance for the piezo pickups.

Have you looked at something like the Tech 21 SansAmp VT Bass Deluxe? Inputs for two basses with three presets each.
