Oh I see the path you’re saying, only thing is I’d be sending a digital signal into the Bray, dont think I like that, plus the Bray is pretty problematic with plugging stuff ahead of it, even more so plugging something ahead of it, then behind it, I’m sure I’d get a ground loop. Last time I tried plugging it ahead like that I got a horrible squealing noize. This thing has no boards, or filters, or anything, it literally is an old handwired Plexi, but I understabd your idea. Interesting wet/dry/wet solution.

And I think you got it, cys I tried a different signal pach using the modelling, then out to the amp, back into the stomp’s fx return and it wasn’t getting colored like you well said

That’s a good idea, yea, I thought of it. So I’d have to tell the stomp that the input will be the FX return maybe?

Well the dummy load is necessary because it’s receiving the speaker out of the amp, unless the stomp can match that amp’s impedance, which I seriously doubt. Yes, the dummy load also adjusts the signal for line level for the stomp. funny thing is, I tried a different setup using the stomp’s modelling and putting it through the effects return of an amp then my regular wet/dry/wet and they are not dark using the modelling amps, I’m guessing they’re designed for that. i dunno what to do, I really dont like this.

Just for better understanding of my rig, I’ll explain the signal path, I’m thinking this might be an issue. guitar-(pedalboard, which consists of a crybaby wah, polytune 3 buffered an mxr phase 95 and an mxr micro flanger then a final buffer) That goes into my Bray 4550 amp head (if you’re not familiar with the Bray, it’s basically a supped up handwored Marshall Plexi sounds incredible, I highly recommend it wew.davidbrayamps.com) no effects loop. The amp’s speaker out goes into the dummy load which splits the signal through to speaker (dry central cabinet) the other is fed to whichever FX unit I wish to process the signal, in this case the Helix. As per the Helix, I’m plugging it itno the input of the unit (perhaps I should use the FX return?) and I’m not using any modelling obviously, basically using it as a multieffects unit. Stereo outputs obviously feed my Matrix 800 FX dual power amp which feeds the Left/Right (wet) cabs.

Thank you everyone for your replies, all seem useful, I’ll try and upload msybe a sound sample or my settings see if you guys find something off with your better experience with the stomp.

Interesting, and thank you for your reply. What do you mean all the delays are dual delay?

I’m having big personal issues with the sound of these delays. They sound way too dark. I run my rig in wet/dry/wet fashion. I’m not using the modelling at all in this setup, only using the stom for pitch shift and delay but the delays just sound way too dark for this. Used dual delays mostly to be able to use 2 different delays for the wet/dry/wet. I’ve been trying to correct that darkness with low cut on the dual delay, it helped a little, but, I still dont buy it. Does anyone know if this low cur affects only the delay? Or the mixed signal? Would be good to know. The other delay I tried was the transistor tape, I set a parallel path to be able to use 2 of them in stereo and I’m getting that same darkness in it. This time I tried correcting it with an EQ after the delay but it got too thin EQing that out since I’m also EQing it out of my whole mixed signal coming throuhg. I’m extremely disappointed with this, anybody else finding these delays dark? Could it be my dry/wet setup? I’m comparing it to my Roland SDE 3000, Empress echo system, and Eventide H9, so, I’m comparing it to a couple of beasts. i’d like to know if anyone else is finding these too dark, or maybe this isn’t a good stomp for me and my rig.
