The Korena take

Built for players who want a broad modulation section in one pedal, the MD-500 brings together 12 modes and 28 effects, including chorus, Dimension D, flanger, tremolo, phaser, vibe, slicer, and ring modulation. Its programmable design supports detailed sound organization, while Simul mode combines two patches at once. The Insert Loop gives you a practical way to place modulation before or after other pedals in your chain. Computer-based patch editing and library management are available over USB.
