I have no idea what to add as my valvetronix amp has a whole bunch of effects onboard (though most of them are average at best)

get a decent analogue pedal of those onboard effects you find you are using most.
'71 Epiphone EA-250 (JP) or 84' Ibanez Roadstar II -> MXR Super Comp Compressor -> Ernie Ball VPjr -> Bluesberry Hotcake -> Visual Sound H2O V3 Chorus/Delay -> MXR Carbon Copy Analog Delay -> '68 Jansen Bassman 50 -> Carvin 2x12 Celestion Seventy80 Cab

Probably a decent compressor then. The BOSS chorus I have is easily better than the onboard chorus.

If a jobs worth doing, its worth doing excessively
And if it came to a fight, mine would bludgeon yours to pieces with barely a scratch
I must have the hardest pedalboard on here

I never knew running a chorus pedal and a few distortions needed to be so complex, BG
