Ive had one of these units for about 2 weeks now and im blown away by what this little beast can do. The algorithms sound incredible with a really smooth, high fidelity crisp sound. Its amazing. Anyone reading this comment and is on the fence about getting the Specular Tempus, just get it. You wont regret it.
after 3:00 on #9 verb delay and I pushed subscribe , this dudes tone is beyond imaginable with this pedal , I could sit and listen to this playing all day long and be inspired for my style of music
I have this and I swear it has got me gigs in the past 😂 I really like how the power draw is so low for the quality. If they add a reserve delay, freeze/loop feature, I’ll absolutely get a second one for delays. Or maybe they’ll make one like the Synesthesia with dual engine, or, a hx effects style unit with all effects included and presets...That would be an absolute treat
Cool pedal! Could it be used as a delay and reverb? Like a normal reverb and just normal delay? I want the other stuff as well, but I wanna know I can get a normal reverb and delay out of it that sounds great together.
I played one today. I think I'm keeping it. I'm surprised at how well it can do polyphonic octaves and sub-octaves if you increase the delay speed to almost be 1:1 with the played note.
I love gfi specular tempus at first sight (hear?) so so so organic. Better than h9 or Big Sky I think. Wet and dry blend so well. Really nice in the mix. Aand it's designed in our country.. Indonesia. Gfi is our proud of pedal
Is this pedal meant to be used in front of an amp or in the amps effects loop? which is the most preferred? I own a EVH 5150 EL34 and thinking about getting the Specular Tempus.
Hey R.J. I listened to both your demo on Source Audio Collider and this Specular Tempus. I’m so torn between them but I can only afford one. I play mostly hard rock/metal sometimes I dabble in acoustic ambient stuff. Which one would you personally use when you play heavier tones?
I have the Collider in the loop of my Friedman Great unit Had a lot of high end delays and reverbs The Collider sounds great and is very easy to use and dial in, especially live No menus to dive into I am looking at another one or this for different board I think this will probably do better at pretty soundscapes and probably better for recording
This sounds better than my Big Sky on some things. But do they even make this pedal anymore? I can't find it in any online stores. Found one used for over 500 bucks.
Technically yes, but practically no. There are six 'hybrid' algorithms that combine reverb and delay. But, you can't just choose any reverb algorithm and any delay and mix them together.
Have you ever tried to switch the banks of the Specular Tempus via midi (effect switcher)? I've read somewhere that you can't switch banks arbitrarily via midi switching, you can only switch banks up and down individually. Would love to know if you or someone here made any experience with that case.

Ordered mine today. Ship it from Indonesia to melbourne, can’t wait
Thanks ... I needed a little boost like that:))
I’m waiting for mine to come in now. Skipped the site and bought brand new off reverb. Better than waiting for it to come from Indonesia. Lol.

very nice, reminds me of the first time I connected my Eventide H3000 D/SE - pure magic.
I just got this pedal recently and lemme tell ya - it's fantastic. Wow so good!!
This little machines is awesome!
I just bought this and its on its way to me as we speak, excited to dig in and play around with this. thanks for the great demo!
I'm thinking about getting it down the road; what are your thoughts?
Yes! GFI products are very very good. I own Synesthesia
Hello. I would ask: It is possible to use 2 effects at once in mono in synesthesia?
That sounds beautiful RJ - thx man!
Majestic harmonies and sounds. RJ great demo.
Awesome video and great talent my friend

@@tubingforever some algorithms yes but mostly just ambient reverbs and delay concurrently

That is AWESOME! Can't wait to get mine! Still on order.
Insane
Man, that's a lot of stuff piled into that package!
That pedal is class..
I think Its strymon big Sky class but with delays. What do You think?
Which one you like better ? This or the source audio collider ?
Great sounds. Any chance you can share your presets with us (export out of SpecLab)?
It beats EVENTIDE every day of the week and twice on Sunday
that. sounds. SO nice...
Great Sounds! Are this Factory Presets?
My favourite is Voices Verb /3
Dammit RJ this vid cost me about “Tree-Fiddy” 🤘

could you please make a video on the combo algorithms? and how to make presets? thanks :)
Awesome video!
Amazing

I’m wondering the same thing. Perfect circuit May know. Just snagged one off CL for 300. They are out there.
Can you reveal the settings you had for each preset?
Awesome gear! Nice review. :)
Can you do dual delay and reverb at the same time?
Technically yes, but practically no. There are six 'hybrid' algorithms that combine reverb and delay. But, you can't just choose any reverb algorithm and any delay and mix them together.
Oh perfect, now I can put ANOTHER pedal on the list lol
I’m getting one ⚡️
Can we use this as a mono?

Thats incorrect...you can jump around anywhere you want with midi..im doing it
Sounds amazing! Are these all stock presets? or you modified to your own?
Both. As stated in the beginning.
can you share your modified presets?
Great demo. But in a serious note, where do you get your hats..
Hot topic 🤣🤣
👏👏👏
My wallet just cringed!! Awesome sounds
Was that a quote from Big Trouble in Little China?! What?!
2012 Mexican standard strat!
That things fuckin awesome!
Great pedal, but not very comfortable to use with expression pedal
Nitrocellulose finish
Fake baritone is some Mars Voltage vibes right there!
Please , show "Shimmer Seraphim " next time
indeed specutecular. a good time to sell my eventide timefactor.
Surf Bryan Adams 😂😂
So many pedals, so little time...
