The more modern multieffects units allow for individual effect switching within a patch, as if you had virtual stompboxes. The boss GT series, the Lexicon MPX, Roland GP-100, anything made by Rocktron in the last ten years, and so on. You have to have a MIDI controller than can send the right sort of commands, but it makes a big difference in the appeal of those boxes. There's a reason Zoom stuff is so affordably priced.
