So I've got a space left on my pedal board for some kind of modulation, but I'm struggling to decide which one.

I play all sorts of music, but mostly rock and its sub-genres, including metal. When recording, I handle all modulation in the DAW, so it's really just a question of what I care most about reproducing live and when jamming alone.

I think I've narrowed it down to three options. I know I'm the only person who can decide, but I'd appreciate any input all the same!

1. Multi-FX: I'd mainly be using chorus, but maybe having a handful of modulations on tap is the best solution since some multi pedals could also cover options 2 and 3...
2. Pitch shifter (probably the Klowra Vein or EHX Pitchfork): A little more niche but I think it fits me. I love those glitchy, pitch shifted / whammy sounds you hear from Muse, Radiohead, Nothing But Thieves, etc and I could get a chorus-like effect with a low mix on the detune setting. Also, pitch shifting when I cba to retune my guitar would be pretty convenient.
3. Reverb: Probably the one I'd use the most, both when playing live for a larger sound or at home to sound epic with the more ambient/cinematic settings. But I'm also of the opinion that just adjusting my amp's reverb to the room is sufficient for what I play and my delay pedal can do the heavy lifting when I want a huge lead sound.

Edit: the smaller the footprint, the better, since I know that future me will decide he wants another pedal and be mad at present-me if I got anything that occupies too much space.
