      I've had one for a year and I'm still discovering cool sounds, especially for looping or blending it with distortion for leads. Ola is right, but you still get 128 tweakable synth/pad/lead/organ/FX/sequencer sounds all controllable via an expression pedal, but with excellent tracking. Best usable pedal I've bought in years, and I bought a lot. At this price range, I don't think anything comes close.

  • @alanredversangel
    @alanredversangel 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Trouble with these pedals is if a keyboard player made these sounds we'd be underwhelmed, and if a guitarist makes these sounds the eq is totally different to the guitar setup and never sounds quite right. Mixing it with a guitar for fat octaving riffs or doing pad sounds is the way to go IMO.

    • @peterrovaniemi138
      @peterrovaniemi138 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I find that these pedals works best if mixed in "under", in parallel, with the guitar tone already used. Thus coloring etc.
      But yeah, trying to be a synth, nah then you are better off using the Fishman midi pickup or something similar (only tried that one) and use your synth of choice, but being able to use your guitar as the keyboard input.

      @mikep6967 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think the fact that they made this blendable with your original signal is pretty much the roadmap for how it was meant to be used. If you want a fuller pallet of sounds then you have to step way up in price to the SY 300 and then you still can’t send midiTo run samplers or anything like that. I think for some people this is perfect just a fill-in for that guitar based band that doesn’t want to have or hire a keyboard player but this isn’t a sound pallet to build around. I have the Fishman. It’s not perfect either but at least it’s not limited sound wise. It doesn’t write midi like a keyboard it uses a bunch of bend messages And you always have to clean up extra notes. That kind of slows down the process because you might not hear those extra notes in the patch you were using but then if you change patches you hear the notes. So the whole thing still hasn’t really perfected yet.

      This pedal is for sure to be used in parallel, as you stated also that it lets you do right from the get go.
      These pedals are great sound design tools. Nothing that someone that just plays straight on metal maybe ever would found the use for, but still even in a hard-hitting death metal song, there is stil space to make parts have more feel through the use of something like this pedal.
      In the end if you want a synth to play with the guitar program one or befriend someone that can play it for you, still the best option. Different tools for different needs.

    I’m running a distorted sound in the loop of the SY-1 and blending in a lead or bass synth sound, makes your riffs sound huge. I don’t understand why metal skewing people aren’t demoing this pedal with this technique. You get the attack from then guitar and the body from the synth. I also run it in parallel to my rhythm tone in the fx send of my AX8 for a similar result. You also get an octave up and sound hold if you plug a 2 button switch into the ctrl jack. This pedal is so much more useful to metal than portrayed in this video.

    This thing works great on bass guitar as well, it has a guitar/bass switch on the back of it. I've been using it for months now. Maybe the best tracking synth pedal I've ever used with bass.

    I have the EHX Synth9 and that is capable of some awesome sounds. The OBX setting is great for doing the intro to 'Mr. Crowley'.

    Just because not everyone likes the sound of synths doesn't mean it's not an incredible pedal. It probably even chugs.

    With a bit of tweeking you get a lot out of that small box!!...but kind of true that there could be more sound variations like, flutes and cello, etc...but you can still get, kids choir, low troat vocal sounds, all sorts of super bass sounds (and by the way there is a switch on the back to go from guitar to bass for even more fun), steel drum, brass, stings, organ, Metheny type solo synth sound (or make up your own), detune on every type using number 11, Kraftwerk sequencer sounds, pads with phaser, shimmer, bass and stings mixed together, arpegios, octaver!!...effects send and return for parallel use of effects!!...and by the way, using a baritone is freakin cool, so, not a bad deal!!...

      I said that about the EHX C9 organ machine, but then I wrote two songs with it and it hasn’t left my pedal board. Granted, my band doesn’t have a keyboard player, so that’s probably why I find it so useful

      Nah dude this pedal is a secret weapon. Thomas McRocklin got me into it, blend it right and other players will ask about the magic pedal they can't figure out you're using.

    • @mikegleeson8733
      @mikegleeson8733 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends greatly on your needs. I use this in a post-punk style band (ie Joy Division, The Chameleons), and it’s perfect for adding just a subtle layer of strings or an organ to accompany the rhythm or a lead. Its a game changer if you don’t want to have an actual synth player sit in for a just a few songs.

    I bought this when it first came out. Killer pedal. You kinda did a rush through on this video. Pretty much ignored the two left knobs which can make a big difference in sound. Also no dirty channel? Try it with a Bass too. There is a switch on the back.

    I'm not a synthesizer fan, but I recently went to my local store and they gave me the chance to experiment with it. I placed an mt-2 in the sy-1 fx loop, which gave me some interesting tones that I ended up buying the sy-1. It's worth trying it.

  • @TheLon3wolfe
    @TheLon3wolfe 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hello. I have an idea for a combo of two pedals and was wondering if you could make a video of it. Not sure if it's already been done. But could you play through the boss Sy-1 and the plasma coil. I really want to know what they sound like together before I buy one or both.
