I'm borrowing an EP Booster for my gig tomorrow, but I haven't yet had a chance to try it out. I was wondering what the best placement in the chain would be. Here's my signal chain....

guitar --> racksystems pedalboard (TU2 tuner, Volume, Wah, TS9, Octave, Chorus, Phase, Flange, BS2 buffer --> Bogner 101b with Chandler Echo in the loop.

Would you suggest putting the EP Booster after I come out of the pedalboard before the amp?
 
I keep mine at the end, but only have it, a koko boost, and tuner in the chain. It seems most people prefer it at the end, but a few here and there like it elsewhere.
 
I think that's where I'll try it tomorrow - easiest to place there anyway.
 
If you put it at the front, or before the TS-9, it can be cool to drive another boost pedal. I prefer mine at the end though. With the mini switches and the 18 volt options, there's alot of different sounds available from a small pedal with just one knob.

I've been messing with mine and a OCD hitting the front end of the Budda and I'm leaning more towards the EP.

If you have a chance to check out the different options, definitely do it.
 
For last minute show sake, Put it at the end.

If you have it after the show then experiment.
 
Yep, definitely check it out both ways. Was really preferring at the end as well, but then put it in front of my OD pedals and that really works well too!!! Seems like I get a little bit tighter harder rock sound with it up front driving the OD pedals.
 
3+ on the end. It adds such warmth to the signal, it's my favorite pedal hands down.
