That makes sense.
Can I suggest in that case that you approach pedalboard/rig designers as opposed to artists who'll either have really big rigs or very specific needs?
LA Sound Design (David Phillips) puts most of his boards online. You can see what the common post-gain sound combination and parameters are.
Most of the medium boards seem to have:
1 mod – Arion Chorus, Boss CE-2, Hartman Flanger, Mobius, Modfactor
1 analog/tape/dark type delay – El Capistan, Carbon Copy, Echorec, Ibanez Echo Machine
1 digi delay – Timeline, Timefactor, DD6
1 Verb – EBS Dynaverb, Flint

Lead sounds might be:
Tape Echo – Hall Verb
Flange – Tape Echo – Hall Verb
Tape Echo – Digital Delay – Hall Verb
Clean might be:
Tape Echo – Hall Verb
Chorus – Tape Echo – Verb
Chorus – Tape Echo – Digi Delay – Verb
What do you think?
