You got atleast 2 buffers in there, and I think Mxr's are buffered too?
So the signal should be strong enough really so I wouldnt have thought it could be due to cable length/amount of pedals there.
Would a Gigrig QM-8 suit (so long as I can work with only 8 pedals).
Also on a side note, if I had a QM8 how do I add in the ABY as I currently split the signal after the drives.
Are you using really cheap leads/do you have a duff lead?
People tend to perceive that as a loss of clarity and oomph when it's actually just slightly lower level. So you may not need to do anything other than turn up slightly and stop worrying.
As Sporky said it’s probably just a small level loss. It may sound flippant but the right solution is just to turn up slightly, and most importantly stop comparing the board to the straight-in sound. If you had it sounding how you wanted with the board, it doesn’t matter if there’s a difference.

So you guys don’t see the value in getting a Gigrig type set up? Edit - I don’t mean that how it reads. I mean in my case is there a value to it? I know that I will get a clearer signal and there is an advantage of getting an easier option of switching between pedals.
Downside is that I’d need to spend £270 on the QM-8.
If you are getting by without it I wouldn't bother.
I have one because it makes switching a lot easier when playing and singing. The tone difference thing is very debatable unless you are looking at a g2 which offers all kinds of witch craft
And as Mr Buzzbox says, the Gigrig is only "worth it" if the switching side is useful to you.
