GFI System Solis Ventus

Solis Ventus is a super‐refinement of our best‐selling Specular Tempus. We rebuilt everything from the ground up, with new high performance 32‐bit ARM processors, and 5+ years worth of R&D, to deliver the optimal experience of playing with two of the most ubiquitous time‐based effects in our sonic manipulation toolbox.

Solis Ventus is dual‐engine Delay and Reverb pedal, able to run two algorithms at once, with arbitrary pairings, ordering, and routings. In addition to several new exciting algorithms, the entire algorithms library from the Specular Tempus have been brought back, improved and expanded, for the Solis Ventus. On top of this, we added a 40‐second stereo looper for you to build that ethereal accompaniment soundscapes with ease. Last but not least, a simple and intuitive, yet sophisticated, user interface ensures seamless navigation through the immense depth of Solis Ventus.

At the time of release Solis Ventus will have 15 Delay algorithms and 8 Reverb algorithms. More will be continually added in future updates.
