    I can not imagine how much time and effort went into this-thank you.

    bought it w/o even hearing it. the Specular Tempus is such an awesome pedal and this just adds more to the mix.

    Nice one Mark, .
    I bought the Specular Tempus after watching your video. GFI sure make some great sounding stuff.
    Hats off to Henry and the GFI team on another great pedal.
    I'll need to start saving..

    I know TH-camrs put a lot of effort into songs, but yours are truly something special. I so often skip others, but with yours, they’re a guaranteed listen. This piece is so so good. The demo as good as always!

    I have both an LVX and MercuryX so not planning to replace them anytime soon but I am always here for a 90-minute Mark Johnston video 🙏

      They're all so powerful. I'd really be interested in hearing from someone who has dived into both (Meris and GFI) about the UI and which is easier to interact with.

      ive got the MercX and just bought the GFI SV and played with it a bit. The GFI feels really snappy compared, does USB C the RIGHT way, and editing on device is really slick. it’s gonna be my delay engine though, so keeping the MercX for reverb mainly. I do prefer the GFI UX a bit more, but you have less control than Meris. both are sick

    Amazing pedal and amazing video! This is truly a worthy successor for the Specular Tempus. Simple once the UI is understood, yet insanely powerful when needed. Love the parallel routing. Saves some space on the board!

    Man! I love my Specular Tempus, and recently just purchased a DM-101 in an attempt to dethrone my Timeline since i mainly use the Analog algorithm on it, but i know i will miss having the options of the Timeline. The Solis Ventus could be my solution to keeping the reverb algorithms of the Specular Tempus and the analog delays of the DM-101 with the addition of retaining multi delay modes and a looper on my board without having to take up the real estate of all 3 big box pedals. Its definitely on my list now. Great job GFI!

    I love the GFI desktop menu, its honestly so easy to use. I find my self always connected and tuning sounds. The price of this is pretty good considering everything you get. I just sold my BigSky mx and got this. This sounds so incredible.

    That intro! Man, Mark, your composing has always been fantastic, but it feels like your range, breadth of ideas, and production just keeps getting bigger, as you figure out how to show of the bast of these pedals. And of course, your usual stellar job at explaining complex pedals. Thank you!

    Sounds exactly like my tempus. Only tempus has 4 more reverbs. I think lol. Anyway to similar to change. Thanks for the demo.

    • @AnonymSuperhero
      @AnonymSuperhero 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      The whole dsp architecture actually changed and the algorithms are completely rewritten and improved in complexity on a way stronger plattform - but yes, the og ST is still awesome and depending on the context you might not notice the difference.

  • @josephestes7076
    @josephestes7076 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

    After you have this a while, I think we need to hear a video where you use 15 of your favorite presets and do a playthrough / quick explainer of each. So many capabilities, but hearing some stuff that has been dialed in for your rig would be cool.

  • @azazabacheche3973
    @azazabacheche3973 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Any info available on how the looper responds to midi/bpm input? Does it operate independently of the bpm being received or can you hit record and it will start on next measure type of action?

    Seems great and quite well priced at £499 in the UK. However I have an H90 and CXM1978 on my board already so I'm well covered but well done GFI

  • @agalvin1313
    @agalvin1313 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

    How is this for just regular / classic reverb and delay sounds without using a midi switcher? I want to cover the regular sounds as that's 90% of what I need but am intrigued to have the ability to go deep into the ambient and looping as well out of a compact format.

    • @markjohnstonofficial
      @markjohnstonofficial  11 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Excellent plate, spring, hall modes and super flexible digital, analog, and tape delays. I would say this does the normal stuff as well as it does anything else.

  • @wheresallthezombies

    Sounds amazing. I just have a feeling ide be tweaking settings instead of playing guitar. lol. Although, it’s still very tempting.

    • @markjohnstonofficial
      @markjohnstonofficial  11 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Well the positive (or negative depending on your perspective) side of that is that they just dont give you that many knobs.

    • @wheresallthezombies
      @wheresallthezombies 11 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @ that’s very true. It sounds so good that I’m considering getting it. I was going to get the timeline but this is incredible. It’s everything I wish my source audio collider was.

    No anti-shimmer Reverb? No Doppler Reverb? Doppler is one of the best on the Specular Tempus!

    • @AnonymSuperhero
      @AnonymSuperhero 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The anti-shimmer is integrated in the shimmer reverb selectable in the parameter section

    • @stossbeats
      @stossbeats 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ how about Doppler though? There is no shimmer but the pitch of the reverb drops with adjustable speed. To put the Specular Tempus in the Doppler mode, you must use the toggle within the app. Not accessible on the pedal itself. Save a preset with it though and you’re all set! 👌🏻

  • @zenlandzipline
    @zenlandzipline 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Does it do line level?

    • @stossbeats
      @stossbeats 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Yes. Another video features it with synths and I believe line level compatibility was stated in another. Specular Tempus does, so I would expect the same.

      @markjohnstonofficial  8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Because this does a lot more. If you don’t need to the dual engine stuff and all the other new things than def just get an ST but this is still a huge update.
