INTRODUCING | GFI SYSTEM
Help Us Welcome A New Addition To Our Effects Roster: GFI System
Based in Jakarta, Indonesia, former university lecturer Henry Widjaja founded GFI System in 2010 by releasing his unique boost-backed take on the Tube Screamer before branching out into mold-breaking DSP effects and other distinctive designs currently making their way into shops around the world.
We’re eager to begin this exciting relationship by offering many of GFI System’s core models, as well as brand new releases, the Skylar Stereo Reverb, Orca Stereo Delay, and the new Rossie Filter pedal.
- The new Skyler Stereo Reverb boasts four essential algorithms and an intuitive user interface with external control, making it a powerful plug-and-play option for any pedalboard.
- The Orca Stereo Delay functions in just the same way, with four essential algorithms, external control capability, and an easy-to-read, user-friendly LCD screen for delicious delay right out of the box.
- In GFI's core line of effects, the dual-channel Synthesia Multi-Modulation allows users to select from 38 algorithms and three different DSP routing schemes for unlimited color and immersive interaction.
- The tap-tempo Specular Tempus Reverb & Delay offers 32 algorithms, 32 presets, a unique auto knob swell feature, and four separate interfaces for unstoppable connectivity.
- High- and low-gain all in one? That’s the Jonassus Drive Pedal. With volume and gain controls for each channel, as well as a shared tone control and independent clipping options, the Jonassus is all you need for great gain just the way you like it.
- The Cabzeus Speaker Simulator & DI takes some of the guesswork out of miking your cabs with customizable, algorithm-based simulations and a suite of powerful features like Stereo Cab and Stereo Mic modes, independent channel controls, channel blend, and optional delays.
- Its companion, the Cabzeus Mono Speaker Simulator & DI, is a single-channel version of the same design, programmed with 12 speaker algorithms, each with four variations.
- Lastly, the Triple Switch 3-Button Aux Switch Pedal helps you get the most out of your favorite GFI System pedals, putting more functionality at your feet.
This won’t be the last you hear of GFI System. Call, click, or schedule your appointment today to sample the sounds of one of Asia’s most popular and fastest-growing boutique pedal companies.
