Stomp Box Order and Arrangement

I need some opinion guys, how will arrange my stompboxes in my pedal board? (from my guitar to amp)

I have the following stomp boxes...

Boss NS-2 (noise suppressor)
Boss CS-3 (compression sustainer)
Boss SD-2 (dual Overdrive)
Boss CH-1 (super chorus)
Boss PH-3 (phase shifter)
Boss PS-3 (pitch shift/delay)

I also have a CryBaby Classic

and it is all connected in series to my amp..

Whats the Best Arrangement for this setup?

Do I have to follow a specific order?

Do I need to add other gadgets? (such as EQs and other stuffs)

HELP please....

Thanks.....

I think the best order would be:

Guitar
|
Crybaby
compressor-sustainer
overdrive
chorus
phaser
pitch shift/delay
noise supressor
|
Amp

There's a useful article >here< that explains the ins and outs of ordering your pedals.

Hope that helps.

Here's a link to the BOSS Guitar Effects Guidebook Vol.19

It has how to best connect your pedals on pg. 34.

Good luck!

The way Akira put the order is pretty much the standard way of doing it. You will find big differences putting OD in front of a wah as well as comp in front of a wah. You should put each pedal in a category and group them together. Then take say a Delay and Chorus and interchange them to get different sounds.
