Wrote the following about Boss RV-500 Reverb effects pedal

De reverb is erg uitgebreid en ook nog eens met midi aan te sturen. Dit moet ik nog wel uitproberen icm mijn Boss MS-3. De midi kabels krijg ik als het goed is morgen binnen. Ik moet zeggen dat de ingebouwde delay functie erg prettig is. Ook de display is erg duidelijk en icm de knoppen up en down makkelijk te bedienen. Al met al is de RV-500 zijn geld zeker waard.
