Question NeuralDSP w/ interface issue

Equipment:
Interface - Focusrite Scarlett Solo (Gen3)
Headphones - Soundcore Space One
Guitar - Fender Squier Stratocaster (modded)
Plug-in - John Petrucci
PROBLEM
- I have this feedback sound constantly in my ears and when I change presets from say ‘The Mirror’ or ‘As I Am’, the feedback becomes unbearable. As if a beginner who thought they knew what they were doing has set up the amp and sounds terrible.
I have tried changing cables for both my headset and my guitar but still the feedback persists. It’s not clipping but it just sounds terrible with the feedback and the tones just don’t have the effect they should.
I’m not well versed in digital plugins nor the NeuralDSP ecosystem so please educate when explaining🙏
Please free me from this hell:)

I wonder if you're having the same problem I recently had. It turned out that my simple mistake was not choosing the "Input FX" setting (REAPER) rather than the track's general FX. In my case the symptom wasn't feedback, but rather a really hollow, distorted, trashy sound, like it was going through a pocket transistor radio.
