How to load presets on the GFI System Solis Ventus
Back up first, then load your SoundShop presets on the GFI System Solis Ventus with the steps below.
This guide has 4 steps, start to finish. A printable PDF of it is also in every pack download.
The steps
1. Get SV Studio and the latest firmware
SV Studio is GFI System's editor for the Solis Ventus, for Windows and macOS. Download it from the Editor tab of the Solis Ventus downloads page below. Install the newest SV Studio before updating the firmware, because newer firmware does not support older SV Studio. The .fdt firmware file and the update steps are on the same page.
2. Connect and back up
Connect the Solis Ventus to your computer with a USB cable. Open SV Studio and press Connect. Then choose Menu > Backup to save your current presets to your computer. SV Studio says Backup completed.
3. Load the presets
Click External to show the external presets panel. Click Add and select the .json files from your download, or drag them onto Drop presets here. Drag each preset onto a slot in Presets on Pedal and confirm when SV Studio warns the slot will be overwritten. Slots marked Empty (bank 9 and up) keep the factory presets safe.
4. Test out your new presets
You are good to go! Scroll through your new sounds and see what inspires you. Don't forget to tag the artist on social media if you share something. They would love to hear how you are using their presets.
Questions
SV Studio says your firmware or SV Studio is outdated?
Update both, then try again. Not connecting? Replug the USB cable and press Connect.
