Been really enjoying the sound of using the shapers after any and all of the dirt and or fuzz stomp(s) combinations but before the amp stack.
This will hold me over until the new overdrives come out and or are overhauled.
Chairs!!!

I really agree, a shaper pre amp does wonders on lead tones for me.
what exactly is the shaper supposed to do?

Which shaper and what settings?
I'll let someone more tech savvy jump in on this whenever but basically depending on the settings it can introduce anything from a lo fi bit crush sound to a heavy clipping circuit sound and that hairy zizzle sound to your signal path which combined with other gain stages can produce a wide variety of results before and or after the amp stack.
Extreme settings yield more of a collapsing gain structure sound. Like adding an R anywhere to the word meow.

....This has me curious
Check out this episode of That Kemper Show 15:50 where they talk about the Soft Shaper
Small list of some new combos
Mouse to hard shaper
Distortion plus to hard shaper
Gives both of these more Life when used on profiles with little to no gain
0.0 to 3.0ish
I use some of the shapers before fuzz and OD.
The Recti shaper in front of the Fuzz DS gives my an Octavia octafuzz sound.
