Using Stomp With Pedals Into Amplifier VST

[dktreaster1990]

I've been struggling with this issue ever since I started using my HX Stomp with both Cakewalk and Reaper. 

 

What I'm doing: Running the guitar into the right input on the HX stomp, sending signal through send and return blocks(an EQD Plumes Overdrive, Boss Metal-core, Boss HM-2W and Boss Noise Gate) and then sending that to a DAW via the only output option which I believe is "out 1/2". 

 

What I want to do: Take the wet signal (pedals engaged), send it to a track in reaper, and then apply an effect to that track (THU Randall T2 Clean). I want to monitor the end result (output from THU) only, no dry signal. 

 

I've tried monitoring from both the laptop (directsound) and the stomp ASIO. When I try monitoring on laptop, I don't hear anything. When I try monitoring through the Stomp, I only hear the stomp signal with pedals but not the output from THU. There also seems to be a very quiet "dry signal" I can hear if I turn the preset output volume on the stomp all the way down.

 

I'm just trying to figure out what I need to change on the stomp and in Reaper's main/track settings to be able to use the Stomp for routing the pedals into the DAW, and the VST as the amplifier.

Guitar>L/Mono IN>HXS FX (if any)>FX Loop L with External FX>HXS SPLIT A/B Routed 100% B>HX FX (if any) in Path B>HXS MIXER Block A and B Levels -60db (OFF)

Reaper Track Input Mono 3, Record Monitoring AUTO, THU>Reaper Master Out 1/2>HXS Out 1/2

If you're using HXS Stereo FX or Stereo External FX in a Stereo FX Loop you'll use Reaper Track Input Stereo 3/4

 

Demo preset attached.
