I guess you are looking for a multi-effect unit, and not sepparate stomps.
I use a Boss ME-70 for practice. Maybe it's too simple for you, don't know. Here are acouple reviews from our own knowledge base: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/index.php/Boss_ME-70 https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/inde...-70_Mini_Review -------------------- Guitars:

Depends on your budget, possibly something from TC Electronic? They make high quality units...

I'm still using a Digitech GNX3 for killer Tube Screamer emulation and massive amounts of gain/distortion the unit provides. I have tried other units including the spiffy ROCKTRON EUTOPIA which I reviewed here @ GMC. Here is the link to the review
ROCKTRON MULTI EFFECTS PEDAL REVIEW It was nice but didn't produce enough gain/distortion for my liking and didn't have enough user control. I have heard good things about the new Pod HD pedal boards and also some good things about the new dual footswitch zoom board. Bottom line, I'd take your guitar to a local music shop and try several to see what you think. And as was mentioned earlier, you can always buy a couple and bring one back. I'd have to say, if you can find a used GNX3 on ebay (now they run about $150) it would be money well spent. Here is a pic of my GNX3 in my home studio. Todd |

Assuming that you want something that quality wise is in the same league as Lexicon then both TC, as Bogdan mentions, and Eventide (mod factor/time factor etc) make some floor units.
If you just want to save some rack space then also look at the Fractal Audio Axe-F, TC and Eventide. If you're happy with a vst for a pc Lexicon now make a very good emulation of their PCM reverb. -------------------- Get your music professionally mastered by anl AES registered Mastering Engineer.
