So lately I've been researching pedals nonstop. I just got into them seriously last summer. Lately I've been having trouble thinking of a nice combination of effects that would give me some great, experimental noise, but have each pedal capable of doing something more traditional as well.
OCD > Earthquaker hoof or tusk > sunny day delay > devi ever eye of god > dwarfcraft square snakes > lightfoot labs goatkeeper
Right now I only have the OCD and sunny day delay.
I could use the ocd or hoof/tusk independently as a plain drive, or boost and add some clarity to the hoof/tusk.
The dirt and the delay would go into the EoG so I could get some usable feedback. This was one of the features I liked about a ton of oscillating fuzzes, but I never really liked the sound of the fuzz itself. Could also use the EoG to force the delay into oscillating to create some nice noise.
Then comes the goatkeeper (anxiously awaiting the release of v2) which I would use like any tremolo would be used, but I really want to use the sequencing with a hard chop to create some kind of synthy, rhythmic sounds.
Then the square snakes I would use as a drone obviously to add some additional rhythmic touches, and also cause I don't really like working with other guitarists, so it'd add more dimension to my sound.
Thoughts? Its taken me a while to reach this realization. I just hope I don't change my mind again before I come up with the dough to buy it all.
What do you think of this idea for my future board?

I love these mad scientist sound scenarios.

Well at least you have your board planned out. I'm never sure what I'm looking for, right now I'm awaiting my next devi pedal, which should complete my board (just need an octave up fuzz).
Anywho, this set up you have planned, reminds me of the Vines, could just be the delay/tremolo combo plus fuzz. I'm sure it'll be a nice versatile set-up if you ever change your mind.
