How are you connecting the TimeFactor MIDI output to the Strymon? Are you using a DIN to 1/4 TRS cable?
There are 2 types of TRS MIDI connections, you may have the wrong cable: https://www.morningstar.io/post/all-you-need-to-know-about-trs-midi-connections
What Morningstar pedal are you using? It looks like all of their products have separate DIN and omniport outputs. You could bypass the need for MIDI thru by connecting directly to each pedal; DIN to TimeFactor, Omniport to Strymon.
