BOSS RV-6 Digital Reverb Guitar Effects Pedal
The BOSS RV-6 Reverb combines high-end studio-grade sound quality with wide-ranging versatility in a classic compact pedal format. Powered by cutting-edge BOSS DSP algorithms, the RV-6 delivers eight distinct reverb modes — from traditional room and hall simulations to the otherworldly Shimmer and performance-responsive Dynamic modes that define modern ambient playing.
The RV-6's analog dry signal path preserves the natural character of your instrument tone while the digital reverb effect is blended in seamlessly. Auto-switching jacks support both mono and true stereo operation, allowing the pedal to integrate naturally into any rig. An EXP jack accepts standard expression pedals for real-time reverb level manipulation.
Four intuitive knobs give immediate hands-on control: E.LEVEL sets the wet/dry balance, TONE shapes the tonal character of the reverb tail, TIME controls decay length, and MODE selects between the eight reverb types. The pedal runs on either a standard 9V alkaline battery or optional PSA series AC adaptor.
Key Features
- Eight Reverb Modes: Room, Hall, Plate, Spring, Modulate, Shimmer, Dynamic, and +Delay — covering every reverb application from classic amp spring to modern shimmer and reverb-plus-delay layering.
- Shimmer Mode: Unique pitch-shifted reverb effect adding sparkling harmonic overtones for ethereal reverberation ideal for ambient and post-rock styles.
- Dynamic Mode: Intelligent reverb that automatically adjusts effect depth in real time based on playing dynamics.
- +Delay Mode: Combines reverb and delay in a single unified effect for richly layered soundscapes.
- Analog Dry Signal Path: The instrument's dry signal passes through analog circuitry without digital conversion, preserving original tone integrity.
- Stereo I/O with Auto-Switching Jacks: INPUT-A/B and OUTPUT-A/B jacks enable full stereo operation; auto-switching means mono setups work automatically.
- Expression Pedal Input: Dedicated EXP jack accepts Roland EV-5, BOSS FV-500H, or FV-500L expression pedals for real-time reverb level sweeps.
