Looking for a decent all rounder and was a big fan of the Big Sky. I'm still of the opinion that the WET and Flint, and even some of the new Kemper reverbs are nicer sounding...so it got me thinking of a reverb pedal that offers the same sort of options that the Kemper does, to tone shape like the Kemper and potentially match the nuances of the WET and low end of the Flint...which I was never able to truly do with the Big Sky, but have got close with the Kemper ..due to the advanced set of parameters available.
Enter the RV-500...I've been impressed by the demo's but am interested in people's thoughts on real life sounds/use/ownership. Cheers.

Have you tried the Ventris?
Never rated any Boss verb personally
Appreciate the sentiments, gentlemen. As good as the Big Sky is, I'm yet to hear any strong arguments against the Boss. Has anyone had any good experience of it?

I'm selling my RV500 now if you're interested.

of the sound.
However, nothing sounds like it imho.
There are 3 standard settings... ‘versatile’, ‘warmth’ and ‘swell’ which are worth it for the price alone.

I've got a Big Sky now, but am absolutely sure it's not as clean cut a choice as this thread makes out.

Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Also there was a sense of option paralysis for me. The tweaking and sub options just went on and on.
The Boss are cheaper though and again, if I had to live with it forever I’m sure I could get stuff I liked a lot out of it. I just preferred the Strymon.
I have a Chase Bliss Dark World now.
