Command Infinite Space with the BOSS RV-200

The RV-200 reverb pedal from BOSS empowers you with 12 classic and contemporary reverb styles, true stereo, a user-friendly interface, and deep customization, including footswitch-activated reverb modifiers! With the capability to store up to 127 user presets, the RV-200 is likely the only reverb pedal you'll ever need — gone are the days of dialing in a sweet plate or drippy spring sound only for it to vanish when you reach for something more ambient or experimental. The RV-200 features a high-visibility LED for smooth editing and easy navigation, even onstage in the dark. Furthermore, this DSP powerhouse boasts a 96kHz sampling rate, 32-bit conversion, and 32-bit floating-point processing for astoundingly lushness and fidelity, especially in stereo. You can integrate the RV-200 into any rig, then customize your workflows with built-in MIDI or supplement controls using footswitches, expression pedals, or other 200 series pedals. Discover a comprehensive reverb tool that tone tweakers, professional performers, and ambient artists can get behind with an RV-200 reverb pedal from Sweetwater.

12 modes and up to 127 presets

The RV-200’s reverb library encourages experimentation while simultaneously preserving user-friendly features that quickly guide you toward an ideal tone for any musical scenario. Prepare to explore warm rooms, sprawling halls, springs, reverse, shimmer, and more! Time, Level, and Pre-delay controls offer rapid plug-and-play tweaks. Meanwhile, deep editing allows for pinpoint refinements using high and low filters, 5-stage density control, and a parameter knob uniquely optimized for each mode. Fortunately, the RV-200 can save up to 127 user presets, affording you room to explore the depths of reverb in all its glory.

Choose from Room, Reverse, Arpverb, and more!

  • Room with four size selections
  • Concert hall with three size selections
  • Studio-style plate with high and low damping
  • Amp-style spring with an adjustable spring count
  • Dreamy shimmer with adjustable harmonic character/diffusion
  • “Arpverb” arpeggiated cadences with pitch-shifted tails and adjustable arpeggio attack
  • “Slowverb” ambient algorithm with reduced attack, gentle harmonics, and pronounced wet/dry contrasts
  • Reverse reverb with enhanced high-frequency control
  • Modulated hall with adjustable modulation depth
  • +Delay reverb with a united time parameter and adjustable delay level
  • Lo-Fi mode with adjustable tape-like distortion
  • Gate reverb that defeats reverb tails with an adjustable gate

Innovative footswitch modifiers

The RV-200’s custom footswitch parameters can be configured to activate Warp, Hold, Twist, and Fade modifiers for new dynamic twists and a more interactive reverb experience. For instance, with the Hold function assigned, pressing the RV-200’s secondary switch will sustain a sound until the footswitch is released. This functionality can create pad-like textures that pair well with volume swells and is especially useful for transitions, intros, and outros.

Studio-grade fidelity

The RV-200’s sound quality is bound to astound. Guitarists at Sweetwater report no loss of tone, along with immaculate fidelity that lets audiences and players savor every inch of reverb space. The secret of the RV-200’s class-leading quality is its laudable 96kHz sampling rate, custom DSP, hi-fi 32-bit AD/DA conversion, and 32-bit floating-point processing. The resulting sounds are truly studio-grade and ready to handle reverbs, big or small, with equal gusto.

Stereo and MIDI I/O

The RV-200 boasts impressive true stereo ins and outs, plus connectivity for MIDI, expression pedals, and select footswitches. Many of the RV-200’s functions and parameters can be mapped to a footswitch, expression pedal, or MIDI controller to enhance navigation and live dynamic control. Moreover, the RV-200 can be paired with other 200 series BOSS pedals for simultaneous memory selection across your entire chain.

Reviews

I like it!
This is a beautiful sounding reverb, with a lot of different sounds. Warm, whisper quiet. I particularly like having the presets, so I can switch from a standard reverb sound to the more specialized types this pedal provides mid song without having to reach down to adjust anything.
This pedal is killer
I have no idea why people aren't smart enough to figure this pedal out. It's as deep or as simple as you want it to be. Read the manual. Or get an RV-6, if too many knobs scare you!

This thing has so many usable tones, and I swear it sounds better than even the 500 does. From bread and butter spring/plate/hall tones, to the "let's get weird" tones, this has it covered.

Ready out if the box
Yes, this is another pedal that can be programmed, and if you've got the time and patience then go for it.

I'm running my PRS SE Angelus A50e thru this using the effects loop and basic settings and I couldn't be happier with the beautiful sounds I can create. There's a lot of other options out there, but I think the value for the sound and options is excellent.
Music background: Playing live off and on since 1973. Primarily acoustic and electric guitar.
It does it all
Great reverb.... All usable. Some are unreal. If you leave less then 4 stars. Your the problem, I promise. It's not pedal. This is the standard. The delay setting is so crispy and clean.
Versatility and warmth
I'm a little confused by a few of the reviews regarding muting (silencing) the direct out. This can be achieved by setting the output mode to "Direct Mute" which is in documented in the manual.

Now, it took me a bit to get used to RV-200. I've been using an RV-6 for years which I love, and that's just a simple pedal to use with great results. I've been getting calls for more ambient style session work as of late so I thought: "Let's try something different!"

I'm glad I did. This pedal has a lot to offer in juicing up ambience. I love the Shimmer and the ArpVerb settings and I absolutely love the versatility afforded across all settings for dialing it all in with the parameter offerings, density, EQ, and timing. Through in the ability to save settings, and take it even further by adding an expression pedal, and a deep dive into pedal settings and configuration parameters. There's a lot to love about this pedal and I'm loving it. The sound quality is absolute rich and pleasing. I'm happy I added it to my lineup.
