Multi Effect device with tube
I have used a VOX Tonelab LE for almost ten years, and it starts to fall apart. Therefore I'm looking for a replacement. In my view, VOX used to stand out among modelling amps by adding a tube, thus creating very good distortion sounds. My question is whether there is anything comparable nowadays in terms of

flexibility, i.e. all common effects (chorus, flanger, delay, reverb, phaser, ...) are on boad
high quality amp models

I also need a fairly "large" board with several foot switches and an expression pedal.

I realize that modelling technique has improved in the meantime, so can I expect all this (in particular nice distortions) from Line 6/Boss/... pedals that do not have an integrated tube?

Although it is not the latest model, the Zoom G5 (not the G5n) is a great choice and it includes an actual 12AX7 tube to add color to the sound. In addition, it is incredibly easy to use and allows you to adds up to 9 effects in any order, and you can even have the same effect more than once in your effects chain. And it is affordable. Good luck. :-)
