Currently I have them lined up as (or see image below):

noisegate >
pitchshifter >
bodyresonance >
eq13 >
compressor >
waveshaper >
distortion >
filter >
delay+feedback >
reverb

Do you think I have these in the right order/best order (if they can not be swapped out on the fly but do have off|on(bypasses) per effect?

Suggestions for a better layout (using these effects) VERY much welcomed.

Also, as a second item: is there a standard/simple effect I left out that I should include?

Chorus comes to mind, but really given the concept of this being a bare-bones setup I have not included it. Feelings?

Thanks, in advance. Really appreciate your feedback.

Love only,
Scott

i'd EQ after the waveshaping and distortion...cos they add frequencies.

and i'd use the resonant filter before those too, just to push some nice frequencies into the distortion bits,

Thanks, for the suggestion @mod. Sorry it took so long to get back.

Implemented what you said (and then some :--).

Realized I needn't stop at a static layout, when I can just use my abs_effects_router in the slots instead. In which case, this static layout is just one scenario.

The new layout is below.

Am thrilled to get the knowledge from you and getting more and more excited to actually test this thing.

Thanks, again, for the advise.

Peace, love and music thru us all,
Scott
