Boss RV-3 favorite settings

Sign in to disble this ad
'Morning. I have one of those on the way. I use those 2 effects every once in awhile, so for me it made sense to get 1pedal instead of 2. Planning to use the reverb more than the delay, but who knows (I play more of a rock style, Tragically HIp, Neil Young, The Cult, and a little funk).

A search came up with nothing related to topic. It's certainly not one the most used pedal and I don't even recall seeing one on a pedalboard.

So for the few who use it, if you're willing to share : what are your favorite settings and why ?

Thx

are you looking for a little reverb added or full-on?

mine right now is as such:
Model 11
Balance - about 4oclock
Tone - about 12oclock
Reverb Time - about 2oclock

add a delay in front of it...it's epic

For now, I've settled on rather subtle settings...

Balance: 9 o'clock
Tone: minimum
R-Time: 8 o'clock
Mode 4

Works for my practice set-up @ home. We'll see if it sticks with the big rig.

This setting is eerily similar to the setting I have on my RV-3. I'll have to switch my Delay and Reverb and hear the magic! Right now I have the RV-3 in front of my SMMwH.

I have my Boss PS-3 right in front of it with a decently-quick and slightly trailing off delay setting. depending on your picking, you can get a GREAT "post-rock" esque tone.
