Bussing to external effects units could use a little help

Hi everyone;
 
Well I have a few external effects units ( lexicon, tc helicon, antares). I'd like to get a better idea of how to route my sonar x2 out to the units and back in ..
 
So I have a MOTU 2408 8 in and 8 out ... I though I could take one of the outputs of the 2408 (send) and use it to drive the input of the lexicon. The stereo pair from the lexicon (return) would come back in on say ch 7 and 8 of the MOTU. Will this work or will it cause feedback? (I guess with channel monitoring enabled in Sonar the loop would feed back)
 
Can I get a little clarification on how to wire this up correctly.
 
Thanks and happy new year!
