I noticed that the new Hardwire RV-7 is for all intents and purposes a Boss RV-7, so what happened? Why didn't Boss release this?

What else can Boss do? I mean the RV-5 is like their pinnacle release for reverb.. They're digging for something unique as it is. Can you imagine a DS-3 or OD-4? They're heavily into COSM now.

We have some good ideas over on our Mockup thread but A) They'll never see the thread, B) They probably wouldn't make anything on it, & C) I think they'll probably keep on modeling anyway.

What would you suspect a Boss RV-6 or RV-7 would have that an RV-5 doesn't?

The same features as the Hardwire; reverse reverb and a different spring setting. And does the RV-5 go 100% wet like the Rv-3? I used to own an Rv-5 and can't remember, but anyway, why is that Hardwire have blatantly modelled this range of pedals on what boss should be doing next? They're even using the same initialled names.

That's one thing I'd love to see. A charcoal black twin pedal. Dual reverb with a reverse setting.

And for RV-7 owners, how does it sound? Comparison with an RV-2?

I think Digitech might of stole the thunder with these hardwire pedals... the reverb is using lexicon for it's sound....and their one of the big boys in the reverb world.....

That's the name i was trying to remember, Lexicon. In the RV-5 manual it says the spring is based on a lexicon reverb, hence my post about how Digitech are also using it, and so that the RV-7 really should have been a boss pedal.

Since Boss have only really released the DD-7 in revent times I think it's time for a couple of new pedals. Fingers crossed for a Boss RV-6 or 7 or even an RV-20.

In a extremely loud and violent whisper, YES, I believe the flame O the torch was taken. Asleep at the wheel is commonplace in society, but in a corporate setting, fairly unacceptable.
