RV-240
Use the room, hall and plate reverb: pick one of the 25 programs and set its length, brightness and width.
The RV-240 is the everyday reverb: pianos, pads and any sound that wants space. Its face is cream, with a red LED display and black keys.
Pick a program
- Tap a key on the BANK row (Amb, Small Room, Med. Room, Hall, Plate): it chooses the bank.
- Tap a number from 1 to 5 on the PRESET row: the program loads at once.
There are 25 programs, five per bank. The PRESET box at the top lists them all too. The display shows Next bank, Bank, Program (with * when changed) and Algorithm; beside it, the In and Out meters, left and right.
