    Before dirt, stock settings. Sounds great like that so I'm not screwing with it.

    Stock settings, last in chain after Nova Repeater and MXR Carbon Copy. Haven't messed with anything becasue it sounds great. Should I? I'm not using it a boost, I just leave it on all the time.

    Bass boost off at the end of the chain.

    Ditto that. 9:00 and almost always on is working for me. First pedal is a comp, then vibe, then the EP Boost, then dirt, then mod and delay.

    Put it in the loop if possible. It sounded like ass in front of my with the distortion channel but good into a clean amp. In the loop it works great either way. Plug it in and leave it on.

    I've tried it in and out of the loop, in front of a few different amps and with a few guitars with many different pedals and it didn't sound anything like ass in any situation.
