Best for sub £300 for recording/playing on headphones is an app for your computer ( bias/helix/scuffam etc).
Live? Maybe a second hand hd500x?
Some home use - playing on headphones (so aux in handy), basic recording etc.
(I would have said the ME-50 as usual, but it's less good for DI'ing since it doesn't have the preamp modelling.)

c63 firmware and can handle anything. Also easy to fire in a global eq or tweak sound as has volume, gain, treb, mid, bass for amp model on front. And floorboard allows changing preset and turning fx on/off. If you have a midi amp it can even switch channel for you
It's what i have and unlike any other modellers i have tried hasn't left me wanting to change or spend months pissing about looking for tones i don't feel shortchanged with.
had a headphone socket, usb recording but will also act as good quality usb audio for monitoring recordings back or playing along to something.
Can be set up so has XLR to desk and 1/4" for amp use (so cab model on xlr but not 1/4") so easy to setup depending on what kit is there but also just a couple of button presses to change that too.
only thing its not got is an aux in but not sure what that was for (if for playing back to a track you can do that from PC using gsp as sound card and play along)
I think a couple of units like the HD500x and some of this digitech ones (probably not the GSP 1101) have an irritating gap between changing patches whereas most Boss units don't. Most won't do trails for delay when switching banks. This may not may not be important for him.
Another consideration would be does he need a looper or 4 cable method integration. Some units do that and some don't

The only downside is that the reverb and delay are not footswitchable I believe.

As an aside...how come Andertons have a monopoly on selling these things and will that deal ever come to an end so we get some better pricing on the atomic stuff?
