pedal order?

[igloobuilding]

Hi there, I have the following pedals and wondered if anyone could give me some advice on the order of the pedals? My pedals are:

Boss tuner
Boss Octave OC3
Ashdown bass overdrive
Sansamp bass driver
MXR Micro amp (used as just a boost when using ashdown pedal)

At the moment I have the pedals set up in the following chain:

Sansamp=>Boss Octave=>Ashdown overdrive=>MXR Micro amp=>Tuner

Would anyone suggest a different order or is this ok? should octave go before distortion or after?

Cheers

Not sure myself, but mine seem to be in opposite order to yours!
Don't know which is correct order though(?) Guess whichever way is best for you....

Boss Octave=>MXR Micro amp=>Ashdown overdrive=>Tuner=>Sansamp

For the following reasons

Octave always first.
Sansamp last so you can di your effects also the things you have before it aren't really going to be affecting it.
Boost into Ashdown because this will give you almost a 2 channel operation unless of course you just want to make the ashdown louder in which case move it round.
Tuner before sansamp so you can tune and mute your output to the amp and pa will also mute any hum mcaused by pedals while tuning so this isn't transfered to the pa as well.

Hope this helps

I'd be inclined to put the tuner first as then you've always got a clean signal from the bass into it, you don't need to switch effects off before using it.

Won't need to switch his effects off to tune anyway
