Analogman:
Where you don't want a buffer
Some pedals like the vintage circuits of a Fuzz Face or Rangemaster won't work well with a buffer or buffered pedal before them. The buffer won't let them do their "clean up" magic and can make them sound brittle. Put buffers or buffered bypass pedals AFTER these.

Thanks. The TC Electronic buffer seems to play nice though. I they say buffres come in different qualities and types, but I do not know more than that.

RVA I have no experience with all this, as of now, at gig volume I only use the mxr 10 band eq

I have learned a lot on this journey. Here is my current configuration, which seems to be working

I ran into the same thing the other night after adding a compressor. I actually messaged Robert the other day and was playing around for a bit in between replying but I told him I had it sounding fantastic the night before but just then I sounded horrid so I just shut it off. I had been messing around with all my settings everywhere that night. Came back later and have been dialing it in, still not exactly where I want it.

That can certainly be frustrating

The only time to uses a effects loop on the amp is for time base effects as in rack effects that have a input and a output volume

I have a Yamaha rack delay and a few Lexicon rack units I used in my old PA system. Never in my guitar amp.

A big part of the Dumble sound is the transformers and resistors he used like Sprague Q line Mepco/Electra MF7C on the plate resistors
never Dale 1% like NIK It is OK to use Dale resistors on the PI and bias that's all no tone to be gained on the PI or bias
