I've got a nice pedal train board with some nice effects on it..echolution/nimbus/Fmeron/EBS/envelope filiter/ ValveDrive and a looper...

Frankly though Im far too lazy to take it outside of the house often times, especially for smaller/more informal jams and it mostly sits in the living room.

Whats a good all in one alternative that I can just grab and go with?

How much would you like to spend?
 
You have cool pedals and want to spend around 350$ not to use them??

If it's for jamming where you need easy selection of individual effects over carefully designed presets I would recommend the B3n. You can have up to 9 in a chain and have instant on/off access to any consecutive 3 at any one time via the footswitches. The Helix HX gives instant on/off access to any 6 of 9 at any one time but is over 2½x the price. The Zoom Multistomp are better where preset patches are the name of the game as on/off access to more than one individual effect at a time is not possible using just the footswitch. On the plus side, the Multistomp can run on 2xAA batteries...

What about a Tech 21 flyrig? There's also a bunch of neat slightly older multis that should be pretty cheap these days. I sold mine, but would recommend a Line6 M9. It probably doesn't sound as good as the newer stuff, but it does have most of the classic L6 algorithms in it, some of which are quite useful or at least passable in a very usable package.
