just a matter of personal choice, really I for one can't wait when we start rehearsing the song where i stack a slow phaser with a leslie-like flanger

but if you don't stack, use just the mobius, that's really all you need I put the phaser there, because it's nice and easily adjustable go-to pedal

Freeze -> Elements -> Pharaoh Deluxe+ritual -> Particle -> Mobius -> El Cap -> Black Forest

I'd go!
Grand Orbiter>Freeze>Pharoah>DE-7 or El cap>Black Forest!

Particle -> Pharao Deluxe / Ritual -> Elements -> Möbius -> el capistan

This I like.
Do this.

Always welcome.
I would go with the particle with a short delay with a bit of modulation. Use the El Capistand for the tap stuff.
Möbius can do a shitton. You just have to invest time in it. I love it. Easily you can replace the goatkeeper with it (except for the LFO out).
I also thought about adding the Black Forest as the last pedal in the chain. So you could use the powerful EQ of it and add a bit of "grit"...

I think I would probably edit that chain a little to go:

Particle -> Pharoah Deluxe / Ritual -> Black Forest ->Elements -> Möbius -> el capistan

Having played both the Black Forest and the Elements, they're different enough that you could probably get some really nice contrast between the two that would justify having them both on the board. Plus I'll bet that Black Forest running into Elements will simply SLAM sonically.

DarkAxel - I don't think I'd stack modulation enough to warrant the grand orbiter AND the mobius.

right now i haven't got the elements yet, it's in the mail, but this is what it looks like:



having a hard time letting the de7 go, does those nice pre-amp delays where shit just turns into mush.

DAT ETCH! Ohhhhhhhhh one of my favs still. Love it.

I like this board dude.

Black Forest->Pharoah Deluxe->DE7->Mobius->Freeze->Particle

you really want to have multiple gain stages so you can stack OD/distortion and fuzz settings. i like to have delay after fuzz so i can do volume swells into the delay, and the relative crunkiness of the DE7 would be good there. if you can live with a single modulation box which only gives you one function at a time, the Mobius is obvious. for me, though, i'd need separate stuff since tremolo is such a frequent part of my sound. i really like a delay at the end so i can turn everything into soup, and the Freeze before delay would be great for drones...i'd choose the Particle here because it can go clean or weird.

What's the mod you're getting done to the particle?

Also I love that etch as well!

if i had to pick one of each of those categories it'd be pretty easy.

elements
particle
mobius

i'd stick w/ a pretty norm lineup though, elements > mobius > particle

yeah if i wasn't into weirdness i'd have put the el cap in there instead of the particle.

so basically you'd take the board i'm using and swap the el cap for the freeze+particle combo? i should add that my particle is off the board right now because i'm getting a slightly modded version by red panda so it's not that i don't like it!

well, as i said i'd probably have to have a separate tremolo because i use trem so much. the Goat has always seemed like overkill, though. my general reasoning: the BF and Pharoah just seem like they go together, and i don't know The Elements. beyond my previous comments delay-wise i'm not so into emulated tape echo that i'd want a dedicated thing like the El Cap and i don't know the other one you mentioned; and the Orbiter seems redundant if you aren't a mod stacker (WELL, HE'S A MOD STACK-AH...)
