It looks like the parameters on the Soulmate offer a lot more tailoring of the delay and reverb. It has a looper too. I wonder how good the looper is, as in can I sell my Jamman stereo and use the Soulmate's looper? Do any of these other pedals have a wide range of adjustment, as in can I set the delay where ever I want it? The AC-3 does not do this, but it does seem to offer a few set reverbs and a few set delays so may be more versatile that the ToneDEQ.
I've had the ToneDEQ and currently have the AC3. Personally, I find the AC3 much better (and more robust) than the ToneDEQ. There's far more adjustability on the Reverbs and delays and I think the compression and "models" do a lot more for your EQ and tone than the ToneDEQ. However, the ToneDEQ isn't bad but I think you get a lot more for your money with the AC3.

The SoulMate is probably superior to the AC3 if you prefer more control over your settings but it does cost more and the AC3 probably makes getting a good sound "easier." However, that's very relative and if you want semi-parametric EQ and tap-tempo delay, you'll prefer the SoulMate.
