How we ranked these reverb pedals

Every pick ranks in Amazon's best-seller list for its category and has a listing with real specifications. The order mixes two things: how each model compares on the specs below (higher share of the best value in this group scores more), and how widely it is bought. The spec score runs from 9.0 to 9.8 and only compares these picks with each other. A spec the listing does not state is left out and the other specs are re-weighted; a listing with fewer than 2 stated specs is scored at half. We do not test gear in person. Full method.

  • True bypass weight 1
  • Stereo in/out weight 1
  • Runs on batteries weight 1

Buying advice: reverb pedal for synth

Match the pedal to your synth rig

A synth rig with stereo outputs needs stereo in and out on the pedal to keep the left and right channels apart. The Klowra Limbo and the IOppWin Galaxia have stereo in and out, so a stereo synth signal passes through them without collapsing to one channel.

Count the reverb modes you will use

More modes give more sounds, but only the modes you use matter. The Klowra Limbo and the IOppWin Galaxia have 9 modes each, the Electro-Harmonix Pico Shimmer has 3 scenes, and the BOSS SY-200 has 12 reverb types. The FLEOR has one analog-voiced reverb, so compare the mode lists against the sounds you play before choosing.

Check power and bypass before buying

Match the power supply to the pedal: the Klowra Limbo needs 9V DC at 250mA or more with the power supply not included, the IOppWin Galaxia runs on USB Type-C 5V or DC 9V, and the FLEOR runs on a standard 9V DC center-negative supply. True bypass passes the signal untouched when the pedal is off, and the Klowra Limbo and the FLEOR have true bypass.
