- Slowverb – Smooth ambient reverb with blended direct sound
- Modulate – Adds lush modulation for rich hall-style reverbs
- +Delay – Combines reverb and delay for dynamic textures

- Gate – Abruptly cuts reverb tails for a punchy gated effect
- Reverse – Reverb played backwards for psychedelic tones
Instant Sound Creation
With its knob-per-function layout, the RV-200 makes sound design easy. Adjust reverb time, pre-delay, density, filters, and effect level with precision. The Param knob unlocks extended controls unique to each reverb type, allowing deep creative exploration without menu-diving.
Expressive Performance Control
