I've had my soul food for a few weeks now and I love it, but it's developed a strange problem, when I'm bending notes high up the neck the sound suddenly fades away and goes all muffled! I've tried different cables, a different guitar, isolated it from other effects and ran the amp and guitar without the pedal and different cables. Could it be my amp doesn't like being driven by a pedal? It's an original Blackstar HT5 on the clean channel. I've also got a tc spark booster that I run on the clean channel but this is fine, any ideas?!

You are spot on with your description, the sustain just dies away, it seems to be when the drive is just past 12 o'clock.
I should have said mine is the combo too. I've had loads of different pedals in the past without a problem. The clean channel can be a bit 'spiky' with stuff going in the front end. The problem with the soul food has only just started over the last couple of days though. Could it damage my amp?
In fact if the pedal is an EH, it's most likely the pedal...

That sounds like a good idea, I'll try tomorrow, so if I understand you right I plug my guitar into the pedal input, pedal output to fx return?

Wait to see what ICBM says, but I doubt it. That being said I have the buffer on in mine since I like its buffer.
