    Boss SY-1 Synth

    Heres a recording I did last night just for fun... I used a drum machine and put reverb on my vocals.. otherwise the guitar and bass parts are going through the Boss-SY-1 (and some delay and reverb in the chain for some of the parts)

    Won't let me upload picture but I use number 3 on the bass selection. Blend is 50 clean and 50 synth. Tone and depth about 1/2 o'clock

    Boss SY-1 Synth

    Hi, I use the pedal for gigs. I'm the bass player for a four piece function band, we don't have a keyboard player. I use a beefy bass patch for "don't you want me baby" by human league. And also the synth bit in "I want to Break free" by Queen. I blend in the normal bass tone with the synth tone...

    Thanks for posting I'm going to watch later even though I've had the pedal a while now.. I feel there is always something new to learn and ideas to explore. I think they priced it very fairly I'm always annoyed about the price point for many pedals but you can tell they really put the work into...

    Boss SY-1 Synth

    Just thought I'd give an update on the Boss Sy-1 - I've had more time with it and plugged a few more things into it. Nylon strung classical - works but very prone to feedback if I get too close to the amp! (not the pedals fault but I'll test it live at a gig with a bung int it this weekend). I...

    Boss SY-1 Synth

    I use two Digitech pedals on my board - polara delay and obscura reverb - easily worth 100 quid each. They sound and look amazing. If I remember rightly though, the Dirty Robot sounded quite limited, and cost around the same... At the time, I had more variation in a Zoom B3. the tracking wasn't...

    I was playing around with the bass but had the pedal in guitar mode and it was throwing out some crazy sub octaves, will be great when I get my drummer round for some drum and bass. I might get some direct recording done over the weekend when I have more time but hope the phone recordings...

    Boss SY-1 Synth

    I would've loved an SY-300 but it's way out of my budget! I tried all the EHX 9 series pedals at a music shop and bought the C9 organ pedal.about 200 quid and I thought that was steep for what it is.. But just about acceptable. Came with 9 organ sounds... Well, sold it for the same amount of...

    Kids are in bed let the madness begin (the tracking is better than it sounds I'm just sloppy playing)

    Boss SY-1 Synth

    Glad to hear yours is on the way. The polyphony is great, probably better to keep it simple or in the higher registers on bass. Tracking is fine I was playing Human League earlier and there's a quick run down after the synth riff, sounded fine. But don't expect Darude Sandstorm. Best played with...
