Boss Digital Reverb RV-2
The Boss RV-2 Digital Reverb is a compact stompbox pedal that provides digital reverb effects for electric guitar. Its controls include Mode, Tone, and Level. The Mode selector chooses among several reverb types, such as room, hall, plate, and a gated reverb, each altering the character and decay of the reverberant sound. The Tone knob adjusts the brightness or darkness of the reverb tail, filtering high frequencies to shape the overall texture. The Level control sets the mix of the dry input signal and the effected reverb output, allowing for subtle ambience or a pronounced wash. The pedal features a mono input and output, and it can be powered by a standard 9-volt battery or an optional AC adapter. When engaged, it replaces the dry signal with the processed reverb, and when bypassed, the original signal passes through unaffected.

- I have used this for years now. It was one of my main effects, it has taken a noisey backseat to other things. It was stolen from me, but returned with only little damage. The battery no longer works, but will still run from a wall wart. It has been tough. Cant beat the sounds. I really love the sound it makes on delay setting one with feedback all the way and delay time down all the way. Some nice harp effects can be made.
- Good Points: Tough as hell. Wonderful sounds
- Bad Points: None.
- Price Paid: US$0.00
- Purchased At: gift from a friend

- I own this and the rv3, and for reverb, this thing kicks the proverbial ass. Really nice grainy 80s digital reverb. Can do massive or small in style. I have used it for a variety of applications all with pleasing results. To me, it sounds much more convincing than a recently released reverb pedal named after a giant lizard.
- Good Points: The overall sound, very effective eq, instant feedback loop, 6 distinctly different modes
- Bad Points: None i can think of....
- Price Paid: US$38.00

- Old Boss pedal still kicking out the jams. Has second output forming yr feedback loop. Can double the delay time on it by leaving a jack in A and taking yr line out of B. Can get tiny through to massive verbs. Great percussive sounds with plate verb. Stereo outputs. Musical ping pong delay in stereo. Reverbs and delay tail rather than cut off instantly when bypassed. My first and last pedal. A major piece of my kit.
- Good Points: Huge reverb... Up to 10secs! 2nd Output forming feedback loop. Nice delay. Stereo outputs.
- Bad Points: Powerpack only. Background noise.

- it's not the best reverb on the market today, but usable. it's small and that's why i use it. i think a reverb is neccesary for any kind of feedback audio because it's thickens up the sound in a very good way. Do not put this unit in a feedback loop, but behind, it's the last pedal before PA.
- Good Points: it's small and strong
- Bad Points: not the best reverb out there
- Price Paid: US$75.00
