Pod HD500x effect chain

Hi guys, I have a PodXT live, but I want to buy a new effect unit. There is a limitation on PodXT effect chain, i.e.

- You can only have one pedal from one group: either autowah or bender, but not both

- Impossible to have flanger, phaser and tremolo in the same chain. Or distortion, autowah and bender.

 

Does Pod HD500x have this limitation?

I know my Zoom G1On does not have those limitations, but the sound is crappy.

Please do not suggest helix and co, I do not have a budget for that unit.

 

Thanks!

The HD500X does not have those limitations. 
In fact, if you want to have 8 flangers, go right ahead. 

 

The HD500X has 2 limitations: 

1. the maximum is 8 effects and 2 amps.   

2. there is a DSP limit.  

 

- and the limit is a "which ever comes first" scenario

This means that; sure, you can run 8 effects, but if those are heavy DSP users (I like to use the example of 8 delays), you may only be able to get 7. Most likely, you can get the 7 you want, but they limit your choices for the 8th based on what will fit within the remaining DSP.
