In the last 4 months or so I have gotten the TC Electronic Chorus, Reverb, and Delay Pedals. Having said that, what is the correct order to put them in a signal chain? Also, do I set all to true bypass or does one need to be on buffered (thought I heard something like this). Any input appreciated....

Re: Pedal Newbie... What order would these effects go in a signal chain?...
I think there is no correct order, the only way to find your spot is to experiment. Anyway, my way would be like that:
chorus -> delay -> reverb
In the studio I rout the FX that way. Chorus makes the modulation and the stereo panning. Delay makes a stop and go echo effect, reverb adds dimension to it. That way they work in their own territory without messing the next module too much. Perhaps reverb is the most sensitive unit as anything after it may give a goofy result. I put anything after that only if some weird effect is the goal. -

My own feeling is to put a buffered pedal at the end of your pedal chain. Others say the beginning, though some pedals seem to not like having a buffer in front of them from my experience.
I have a TC Flashback 4 with the buffer on as my last pedal; if I use reverb it's in the amp.
Not sure which TC delay you have but one aspect of mine is that if you don't enable the buffer, the bypass cuts your delay immediately when you hit the switch; vs. letting the repeats die out._________________
