Soooo..
I've had a HX effects for quite a while. I've also had a stomp previously but couldn't get on with it as a replacement for the HX or my other pedal board. This was mainly due to the little screen/lack of footswitches. As such I sold the Stomp..
Then during lockdown I decided upon getting an ampless setup (partly through boredom tbh).. I've now bought another HX stomp, with the aim of using it pretty much only for amps/cabs & probably a bit of reverb, and then using it at the end of the chain.
My chain would go -
Wah-Tuner-3 drive pedals (Barber x2, Rat, TC spark mini) - HX effects (for modulations/delays) and then into the Stomp. Other board is similar but use a mobius/DD500 instead of the HX effects.
Couple of questions:
1. Is this going to sound mushy as feck. - Any tips around global settings for this? Also, I'm not sure whether to use effects loops (drives in effects loop for HX effects?). How is it best to hook up the HX to the stomp?
2.I'm basically wanting a fantastic clean sound from the Stomp for Amp & cab/IR. Drives coming from my drive pedals.
What amp models do people recommend? Also, any custom IR's that help with a great sounding clean tone?

How did you get on with it then?
