So I picked up a used B3 and Im loving it.
Questions I have.

Does it matter where you place an effect in the chain?

What kind of pedal can be used with the b3?
 
You can place the efx in any order, they can be left to right or right to left. The order can affect the ways the effects interact.

I find the B3 works well with other efx, mine is in the middle of my board.

I just started experimenting with an expression pedal and am programming patches.
 
I'm not currently using an expression pedal, but any momentary switch will toggle the tuner or switched functions.

Order of effects matters. Try one of the filters into a fuzz, then switch the order. The sound should be notably different. Unfortunately the only way to predict how they will sound together is to get some experience tweaking the orders.
 
I also have a question about the Zoom B3. Does the amp simulator take up one of the stomp box slots? I'm thinking about upgrading from the B1-On and it can run up to five features on one patch; is the B3 limited to only three?
