I think you may not be using it correctly;
With sends, the ideal way to work, is to have the aux channel (with the FX on it) at unity gain + 100% wet on the FX.
Then you just dial in on your instrument track, how much you actually want to send to that effect.
This standardizes a particular FX in terms of how much you want to add to each element or group.
Bear in mind with an insert, it will depend on the FX itself (and how it's wet/dry balance operates) not to mention how hot the instrument is (inserts are pre fader by usual default) which is maybe why you're getting different results, as the FX sound may vary on input and w/d balance etc.
