You can check your levels are approximately correct on each device:

 

  • Create a new, empty patch (i.e. no effects) on the Zoom.  Is the volume when using the empty patch approximately the same as when using your existing patches?
  • Similarly, is the volume approx the same either with or without the TC Electronic in the signal path?

 

You don't need to be at the studio to do these; check with headphones or with your bass rig.

From memory, yes. I have tried very hard to get to difference between off and one effect levels. I would imagine that it's not perfect, but by ear it's OK.

Doesn't sound like you're doing anything wrong.  I'm out of ideas about what's up with the mixer.  A DI box will indeed lower the signal to mic level (i.e. you'll also need an XLR cable; plug into a mic XLR input on the mixer).  I used Behringer DI400P and Radial ProDI; any old passive one will do.  Other than the issue at hand, it's also a useful thing to keep in your gig bag in general.
