The signal chain on the virtual pedalboard flows from left to right.

While there are absolutely NO rules and you should do whatever you think sounds/functions best, a general guideline of effects chain order would look something like this:

  • Fuzz

  • Dynamics/Pitch/Filter

  • Drive/Distortion/Boost

  • Amp/Cab

  • Modulation

  • Delay

  • Reverb
