Taking a very in depth look at the Line6 M5 Stompbox modeler. I’ve had one of these on every pedalboard I’ve had since they came out more than 10 years ago.

It’s vast array of effects combined with its simplicity of using one of those effects at a time makes it a must for any pedalboard. Especially at €120 off the shelf!!

Combine it with a loop switcher with midi and it can replace a huge number of pedals on any board.

This is a 20 min long video so here are some time stamps in case you don't want to watch the whole thing:

The M5 in a track: 2:47
4 great things about the M5: 4:36
How the M5 works: 11:27
The M5 on a MIDI enabled pedalboard: 15:35

I really can't recommend this little pedal highly enough. For what it can do the price is an absolute steal.
