Slivoid, the best option is a combination. Use the option from your diagram and use the parallel return instead of the serial (because I'm pretty sure if you plug into the serial return the VH4's signal is broken and you'll only hear the jmp.

oh, ok... that's what i feared.
BUT: what if you plugged it the way i mentioned and
1) when you want the vh4 to roar: make a patch on the jmp that mutes (vol=0), vh4-send2=off --> vh4 on, no signal from jmp
2) when you want the jmp to scream: make normal patch on the jmp, vh4-send2=on --> vh4 muted, signal from jmp

He told me it was nice, but nothing what the Herbert couldn´t do without it. It´s only a gimmick, nothing more!
The VH4 has four huge channels and with them you can get any sound you want.
I don´t own Marshalls any more. But I am a Marshall Fanguy from the first day(and still am), but if you crank pres, treb and mids and reduce bass and deep, you can get a very hot Marshall sound. (and use a marshall cab with greenbacks if you want)

I'm unsure if it mutes just the sends or both the sends and returns. I'd test it but I won't be able to for a few days.

I played once an older vh4. It pierced in ch2 like hell?!

or take ch1 and plug a blind jack into channel insert send and activate channel insert... (for muting the vh4)
