The Boss RV5 is a digital reverb pedal with 6 different types of reverb, each have different adjustable settings. It has most mono and stereo 1/4'' inputs and outputs. It is a traditional stompbox and is not a rackable effect.
UTILIZATION
The pedal is extermely easy to use - you pretty much just plug it in and go with it. The sounds are very easy to manipulate, 3 simple knobs for each setting - time, tone and level. I never looked at a manual because I bought mine used and never got one.
SOUND QUALITY
I love the reverb that this produces. I usually keep it on the 'modulation' setting and it is really a beautiful sound. The release and the sustain of the sound makes for a great pad-like sound when the level is up high enough. I don't use the spring setting much because I have spring reverb on my amp. The other settings are quite realistic as well, but I have a great liking for the 'modulation' setting.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had this pedal for about 2 years now and I've not had a desire to get rid of it. Whether you are looking for spacey sounds or just a dash of reverb, this pedal does what you will need in terms of reverb. I've also used some of the Electro Harmonix and Line 6 reverbs and I like the RV5 more because of its versatility. The only downfall of this pedal is the price, as its got a heavy tag for such a small pedal. However, it is a mainstay in my set up and I see myself holding onto it for awhile.
