What is REV-X?
REV-X is an Add-On Effects package that consists of a reverb algorithm developed by Yamaha. It provides a high-density, richly reverberant sound quality, with smooth attenuation, spread and depth that work together to enhance the original sound. You can choose one of three programs to suit the acoustic sound field and your intentions: REV-X Hall, REV-X Room, and REV-X Plate.
