is there any "correct" way to set up more than one pedal?I used to only use just a wah and overdrive pedal but now I added a few more pedals so how would you set this up wah,overdrive,distortion,vibrato and chorus.I mean everybody has there own preference but I'm using this as feedback to see how others also set their pedals up.So let me know and tell me how you set your effects up.

Can we have everything louder than everything else???

Usualy most people prefere the Wah-pedal to be the first thing right after the guitar , or specificaly before the distortion.

When you change your effect's chain the souund significantly change ... i.e. if you have the vibrato before the distortion you'll be distorting a vibrato signal , if you flipped them you'll be vibtrating a distortion signal ... Same with wah,flange and other effects.

Just try as many setups as you can to get the best out of your gear that matches your tonal tastes.

there's not much else to do besides experimenting.
Thanks for listening to this small piece of me.

Thanks Sly,I tried using the wah 1st and then the vibrato and then my overdrive pedal and plugged it in and it sounded something just like Hendrix/Trower which was very nice if you like that type of playing.Anyway I had so much fun with this setup that I'm going to stick with this for a bit then I 'll try the other two pedals (distortion and chorus)and see what happens.
