I took a QuadCortex to my last gig, but it was kind of overkill. Looking for something I can chuck in a gig bag. The only thing that meets all the requirements below that comes to mind is an HX-Stomp.

Tuner
Headphone Output
Capacity to just fix the line out to the amp/FRFR and control the volume via the main encoder
Decently touch-responsive Fender Tweed and Fender Black Panel amp sims.
USB-C power would be cool too.

Use case is as follows: When I play out I don't tend to like stepping on pedals. One of the things I do is wear headphones or IEMs so I can both hear myself AND attenuate the room sound.

Not sure if this would meet all of your requirements, but look into the Valeton GP-50. Seems quite a capable little unit and it can load NAM profiles.
