1) OD
Fulldrive II - I still have some ODs to explore, but I like this; its pretty versatile (3 drive types and a boost) full of character ?
2) Delay
Timefactor - ton of save-able banks, two individual delays in one, usb updates/backup of patches, does much more than I use atm. Oh it also sounds ok ? (Strymon Timeline 2 does look/sound awesome too though ? )
3) Reverb
Strymon Bluesky - I use for ambient stuff, but covers everything and has a save-able preset, so two reverbs in one!
4) Volume pedal
Ernie Ball Volume Pedal Jnr; its simple, freaking solid and does the job!
5) Wah Pedal
Explain this concept? ? I have a true-bypass/led modded crybaby "original", but its in the cupboard potentially up for sale soon.
6) Compressor
I've only ever used a Boss CS-2, so don't have much reference here.
7) Distortion
Nah...
8 ) EQ
Nah...

I have also noticed that a few OD pedals get mentioned often on this and TGP forum and would like to know:
1) Barber LTD
2) MI Audio Blue Boy
3) Fulltone Fulldrive2
4) Timmy
5) Keeley Luna
Anyone have any experience of these and can comment on differences and preferances. The Fulltone Fulldrive2 and Keeley seem to be quite versatile though but I have heard great reviews of all 5. Of course my Ashton Audio TS pedal is also great but I may have two OD's to provide versatility.
I have a timmy and a fulldrive II (non mosfet); 2 very different pedals which is why I like having both! Timmy is a "clean" OD pedal if I can say that, (read transparent, if you must) and has a really nice bass and treble eq/cut section. It pretty much just adds dirt onto your tone, depending how you tweak the eq. But its nice musical dirt ?
I love the fulldrive for its "thickness", really nice for single note/double stop singing stuff - thats where it shines for me, smooth, singing sustain. You can also get pretty "clean" OD on the comp cut mode, there's some really nice tones in there, but you have to tweak it really differently to the other modes.
