Guitar Effects - Chorus
This is one you probably already intuitively know! You're likely familiar with the vocal term "chorus" -- as in "many voices singing at once". A guitar "chorus" pedal does the same thing -- it makes your guitar sound like two or more guitars playing in unison at the same time.
What makes chorus work is that it really does try to act like two or more players playing at the same time. In real life, two people playing the exact same thing will never be completely synchronized. They'll start each note at a slightly different time, perhaps pitch the notes slightly differently, hold them differently, etc. They'll be really close -- but it won't be exact. This slight "offness" is what makes a chorus sound different from a single voice -- the slight variances in the signals make the sound richer and fuller.
A guitar chorus pedal works by splitting the guitar signal into two pieces ... and then delaying one of those pieces a fractional amount. The delay is very slight -- too much would yield a reverb effect -- but it's enough to shift the wave form of one signal path so that it no longer exactly matches the original signal path.
Consider wave form as a sine wave graph. Now, take the exact same wave form, shift it just a fraction, and place it on the same graph as the original wave form. What will you see?
When one form peaks, the other will be slightly off. When one wave begins to rise, the other will be just a touch behind. The resulting tone will sound much like two guitars playing in unison in real time. The sound will be fuller, richer, and also have a slight "shimmer" to it.
A chorus is effective on a clean guitar signal as well as on a dirty or distorted one. A clean chorus will also fill a room better than a straight unaltered signal.
Note that a chorus effect doesn't really alter the pitch of the tone -- it doesn't try to sound like two guitars playing in harmony (octaves, fifths, fourths, etc). Again, while the chorus effect is slightly similar to a digital delay or reverb effect, it's very, very slight ... just enough to give the sound that typical chorus "shimmer". Also, most choral effects only add a second guitar signal to the mix ... but some can add the effect or three or more guitars at the same time.

In what order should I connect my guitar effect pedals?
My pedals: EHX Big Muff Pi USA, EHX Small Clone Chorus, Dunlop Crybaby original, and Boss Bf-2 Flanger. I heard that the order makes a difference in the sound you get, so that being said, in what order could I get the best sound from my gear. Also, I intend on getting a delay pedal soon, so that should be considered in my effects chain as well.
There is a correct order to running effects. It follows a basic guideline:
#1 Preamp types of pedals first, this includes distortions and overdrive units.
#2 E.Q. next, like a 7 band E.Q. pedal
#3 Modulation effects, like flanger and chorus
#4 Delay effects come last
If you have an effects loop on your amp then use the pedals in this order in the loop. The effects loop takes the signal from your amp, which is much more powerful, and runs that signal through your effects. This way your pedals don't have to work as hard and they sound much better. The signal comes out of your effects and is returned to the amp right before the final volume stage. This helps to eliminate noise from your signal chain.
The Wah pedal should be the very first thing in the chain ( guitar into wah ) If you are using an amp with a loop then go from the wah right into the amp and use the loop as mentioned above. If your amp does not have an effects loop then run the guitar into the wah then into the rest of the effects in the order suggested
Your set up reminds me of my early effects set up. I had the big muff, small clone, small stone, (phase shifter) and the deluxe memory man, with an original crybaby wah and a few other odds and ends. Ah the good old days! (that was about 30 years ago!)
