The RV-5 is a direct replacement of the RV-3 so it might seem disappointing that it only has 6 modes compared to the RV-3’s 11. The RV-3 was however a Reverb/Delay that only had 4 pure reverb modes. With the RV-5, the delay function has been dropped and its 6 modes are all different kinds of reverb.
Features:
- Stereo input/output for compatibility with other stereo pedals
- 6 reverb modes (Spring, Plate, Hall, Room, Gate, Modulate)
- The Modulate mode detunes the reverb sound for added spaciousness
- New spring reverb emulation offers realistic spring reverb sounds
- New gate reverb taken from high-end Roland studio gear
