Effects to pair with Doom 2/ advice on board

[HerpyDerpy]

After 5 years of gigging with only a compressor and distortion I decided to build a bigger board. I just got the doom 2 and am experimenting on how to pair it with other effects i have for a synthy tone. I'm newer to pedals, so any advice appreciated. Thanks@

The chainsaw was the most fun weapon in Doom 2. Just sayin'.

What do you mean by that lol

@bholder is referring to the 1994 ID Software PC game of the same name.

But he's mistaken. The Chainsaw was already in the first title, and I actually think the Super Shotgun is not only more iconic, but also more fun than the chainsaw.

...but while vintage video games can be fun,
we're talking about pedals here.

Plug your Doom2 between the octaver and the envelope. Take it from there.

+1, hard to beat the octabvre, doom 2, photon combo, possibly with a chorus/flanger/phaser and/or light delay/verb later in the chain if you want to have options to get even synthier sounding

Also, the Half-Life 2 gravity gun >
