That diagram is NOT of *my* pedals - LOL!  It's a diagram I found ages ago that attempts to show the generally agreed upon placement and order of effects/pedals, with a note (IIRC) that there are no rules.
 
99% of my effects are VSTs.  The other 1% hardly get used.  I think I have 3 pedals that get dragged out/connected every few years to see if my tastes have changed.
 
What I'm doing now is experimenting to see what all I can get out of my gear.
 
Beep - interesting about your bass output levels.  I have a Peavey Milestone bass I bought last year that I haven't done much with yet.  I'll hook it up and see what it does.  Just thinking out loud ... I wonder how much the freq range of the instrument has to do with it.

Actually the impedance matching is necessary for the good performance of the Amplifier and the other related devices.
Can you please share your specifications for the Amplifier and the Cable interface you are using?
Also do you have any idea for the impedance from both side of your devices?

The only impedance spec I have for the amp is the guitar inputs - 1M.  The amp is a Laney IRT Studio, the audio interface is a Tascam US-16x08.  The OUTs of the US-16x08 are 100 ohm, INs (line) are 10K or 1M for 9/10 when set to INST.
 
I'm mostly beyond this at this point, but would appreciate your input to add to the "mix".
