| How are you using the BDDI? Are you using it as an 'amp' or as on overdrive?
If you were using it as an amp modeller, then it would go last, if as an overdrive I would put it before the muff as it's generally best to put dirt boxes in order of gain - low to high.
Also, I had been in the camp of putting compression after dirt so the drive responded to dynamics and the volume was evened out by compression. However, I found this to cause more volume issues than was manageable. I also realised when I use dirt, it tends to be on heavier tracks where dynamics don't really enter into the equation. I now run dirt after compression and it's much more manageable.
So if I had your rig I'd run it:
Tuner -> BBE -> ODB3 -> Muff -> BDDI.
If you were to run the BDDI as a low gain dirtbox though I'd run it:
Tuner -> BBE -> BDDI -> ODB3 -> Muff.
I do however agree with Jazz Ad though. The ODB-3 is a box of fizzy junk. There's better things out there if you just want a boost, even a graphic eq would be better and more controllable. Again though, put any form of boost after compression to have more control over final volume.
