Please check my rig

Hi all.
About to re-build the WDW rig & wanted to get a 'sanity' check from you all - how does this look?

Idea:
- running a Klon in loop 1
- Rockaway Archer in loop 2
- Axe FX III as "pre" in loop 3 (wah, phasers, fuzzes etc)
- Bogner Fish preamp in loop 5
- CAE 3+ in loop 6
- Axe FX III "post" in loop 7 - stereo outs (delays, reverbs etc)
- Eventide Eclipse in loop 8 - stereo outs

- RJM mini line mixer to receive the stereo outs from loops 7 & 8 - this goes into a VHT 2/90/2 power amp
- the 'dry' part of the tone comes from Out8 & goes to the effects return of a JCM800 head


QUESTIONS:
1. Do i need to connect 'output 1-4' to 'CS in'?
2. Can i use a TS cable from 'out8' to the effects return of the JCM800 to get my "dry" signal?
3. Is there an easier way to do this? Should i just put the preamps in the send/returns of loop 5 & 6??

Output 1-4 to CS In does not need a cable. The lines on the rear panel indicate normalled connections that are made by default inside the unit if nothing is plugged into the jacks.

Yes, Out 8 will provide the dry signal in your configuration

There are other ways to do this, but as shown, it prevents both preamps from being turned on at the same time. Putting each preamp in a different loop will allow for the possibility of both preamps on, which is probably not desirable.
