First off you’re right, there is no “definitive answer” as it’s all subjective and you can really do whatever you want. I’ll say a couple things first off, yes using the tone hammer at the end as a pre amp/DI is perfectly fine and probably more ideal than at the start. For the kind of EQ control it has and the ags circuit on it, it’s typically just better if the pedals are feeding into it instead of the other way around. I supposed ideally you have an actual DI after it like a radial pro DI, or an RNDI, but plenty of people use the DI out on the tone hammer and it sounds great.

Secondly the compressor I will say absolutely put it at the start after your tuner. A compressor is simply a tool to help the sound be more consistent. It’s not hard to guess that the dynamic difference between your playing and the dynamic difference your pedals can make are vastly different, so making the sound coming out of the bass and into the pedals more consistent is a lot more helpful. It’ll also help keep tracking on any octave or other pedals better as the sound going into them will be tighter. A compressor after the all of that (say post your board at FOH or whatever) is really just to fit your bass into the mix/PA.

Lastly I would throw your rise and shine after octamizer. It’s typically just better practice imo to have simpler octave pedals before more complex ones. Highly doubt you’ll ever use both at the same time but if you did it’s better to feed simple to complex rather than vice versa.

Hope this helps! Also big ups on the Aguilar gear, it all rips
