For sale: Yamaha REV7 Digital Reverberator. Introduced in 1985, this is a true classic of 80s studio outboard gear, known for its distinct, dense reverbs, early reflections, and modulation effects that helped define the sound of the era.

This specific unit is in great condition and has been carefully serviced and modernized to ensure perfect reliability and workflow in a contemporary studio environment.

Condition and modifications:

This unit has been professionally upgraded to fix the most common issues associated with vintage 80s Yamaha rack gear:

• Display Upgrade: The original, notoriously dim and hard-to-read LCD has been replaced with a brand new, custom Green OLED display. It provides incredible contrast, is perfectly readable from any angle in a dark studio, and perfectly matches the vintage aesthetic of the machine.
• Serviced Power Board: A complete recap (all electrolytic capacitors replaced) has been performed on the power supply board. The original REV7 power supplies run hot and are prone to capacitor failure after 40 years. This recap guarantees long-term stability, clean power delivery, and peace of mind.
• Cosmetic condition: The chassis and faceplate show only minor signs of rack wear consistent with its age. Please review the photos carefully to see the exact condition.
• Fully Functional: All buttons, encoders, and inputs/outputs have been tested and work flawlessly.
