Order of effects pedals on my pedalboard?
I recently built a pedalboard, and I've planned out what pedals I'm going to buy and what I have room for. However, I need to know the order I should chain them in. PLEASE READ MY SETUP FIRST: the whole reason I've resorted to this site is because Googling for hours hasn't provided me with information that's useful to my rig (mainly because of the fact that no two "guides" are the same). So here's are the pedals:
Dunlop Crybaby
DigiTech Whammy
Ibanez Flanger
BOSS DD-20 Digital Delay
Voodoo Lab MicroVibe
MXR EVH Phaser
BOSS Tremolo
Fulltone '70 Fuzz
I also have another problem: powering my pedals. Right now, I'm using a 1-Spot Adapter and a daisy chain with 5 plugs so I can power the 4 pedals I have, but in the future I'll need something more powerful (mainly because of the 18v DD-20). So, should I put a power strip in my pedalboard and stick with adapters, or should I go for something more powerful and compact like a Dunlop DC Brick? Any help is appreciated.
Keith's suggestion of going from clean to distorted is exactly wrong.
The fact he doesn't know Whammy from Crybaby is a clue.
If you did that you'd be taking your flange and DISTORTING it which is far from the effect your looking for. Or then again, maybe it is. That's the fun of it all. You have to find the sound that inspires YOU. That being said...Here's my suggested order.
Anything that causes a time-delay should be last as they can sound very strange anywhere else (like distorting a reverb). Any distortion effect should be FIRST so the other effects are running on your initial tone.
so...
1.Fulltone Fuzz
2.Whammy
3.Crybaby
4-6. Microvibe/Phaser/Tremelo (you'll have to play with those)
7. Flanger
8. Delay
