Awesome demo 😎🤘🏻🎸🎹 I’ve been checking this pedal out for quite some time and I’ve been thinking about purchasing it. This synth pedal has such amazing tone.
Thanks for taking the time to do this! Helpful stuff. I bought one a year ago and really only use the Soft Pad (good doubling open chords) & one of the Bell tones (nice tracking along with arpeggiated stuff) but even using only these 2 it's well worth it to me. Will explore more in the studio. I spent an hour with the 'big one' - SY 1000 (?) - in the local stockist and I would really enjoy having one of those but given price vs. utility there are other priorities for now.
Hi I wanted to ask if this synth pedal degrades when you play chords or more than one note. My point is to confirm if it is the same as the EHX Mono Synth or it takes gently more than one note. I don't know if i was clear enough😅😅
@@gerardovilcarde7126it is polyphonic, tracks full open chords very well. Certain sounds won’t work well, but that’s because of the nature of those sounds (leads, basses)
just orderd mine ....just going to use it in my trio to add a few strings and things on the fly....i already have a gr55...but that stays in the studio
With a bit of tweaking : Pat Metheny synth guitar sound, fretless and upright bass, children choir, cool lead sounds with fifth above, cool organ sounds, light pad, light strings, heavy synth bass, tuba, whistling sound, arpegios, some flute, some shimmer, some brass, smooth synth with phaser, Kraftwerk stuff, techno stuff, steel drums, rock organ, and more!!...
Completely thorn between the sy 200 and the source audio c4. Boss is polyphonic but not stereo and has more sounds. source audio is stereo but monophonic but it builds up like an eurorack so endless creativity. Plus it sounds higher quality
1) You could connect the Boss to a mixer that lets you pan it. 2a) You might end up using several synths. (Like you may have several guitars, or sets of screwdrivers.) 2b) I had just had another look at the Boss SY range, then discarded all but this SY-1, dropped it too while playing this video, then changed my mind and ordered it (along with an FS-6 double pedal), and resumed listening. But I could also use the synth in my Mooer GE300, apart from my MIDI stuff. 3) I have my one acoustic guitar with piezo and my bass guitars equipped with flatwound strings. Glissando (on organ sounds), here I come!
@@chrislaarman7532 Whats your opinion on the Source audio c4 synth? I am completely blown away by the pedal zones demo of the sy 200. The sounds were all incredibly musically plus the expression you get by morphing between synth pitches is incredible. The sy 200 is defenately the most useful and creative thing i have seen. And his vid wasnt even with reverb and delay pedals after it. The sy series are ambient monsters.
@@marcusstrymon693 I didn't know the C4, so I (partly) watched the demo on their website. Yes, it does appeal. And so do the other SY models. - I think that we (at least Marcus and Chris) should ask ourselves what we'd like to do with a possible addition to our gear. Do we want to use it in our performance or do we want to create great sounds? (Or both, but then we may end up with multiple devices.) Using MIDI with a guitar is an option. The traditional way is through Roland's 13-pin cable and a GR-55 or something compatible. A serious alternative may be the Jamstik Studio guitar, as it has the audio-to-MIDI conversion built in. (I noticed a reviewer complaining about the tracking. It sounds alright with mine, though.) A monophonic option (for even a microphone) may be the Sonuus G2M v3 converter. (I have it ordered.) I'd say that guitarists are not too likely to play long notes (except Carlos Santana), and that consequently complex sounds are likely to pass "unfinished". Whereas pad sounds would have the time to evolve - and you could play these using a MIDI keyboard, even an iPad. (By the way, if you should happen to have an iPad or even iPhone, watch a demo of the GeoShred app. Especially with the pricey in-app purchases.)
@@chrislaarman7532 I have to disagree, guitars with organ like pedals and a lush reverb, and a delay (like harmonizer delay or reverse delay) sounds outrageously good and gives extreme ammounts of sustain. That is a creative use that blown ones mind. Check out perry franks videos about the sy 1 plus strymon nightsky
@@marcusstrymon693 I think we have a misunderstanding. :-) I didn't say that sustained sounds are impossible on a guitar (I did mention Santana...), but I meant that guitarists tend to play shorter ones (on average). And yes, that Nightsky (your product?) does tease to sustain them. :-)
Easily, but that bar was low tbh. Source Audio C4 Synth is a better comparison; it has editing capabilities w/user preset exchange via your Apple/Android device or computer, and built in effects options. But only the effects are truly polyphonic on the C4. Supposedly, the SY1 is polyphonic🤷🏼♂️.
Once again, thanks. I wanted to know more detail without talking about the SY 1 -> Frank Perry. I noticed some attack/tracking problems with the real fast sequencing rates? This or an EHX pedal ? the anwer is already below i saw. This.
Man, if only this pedal was MIDI capable (a small MIDI over USB port, so as to be able to store and recall presets with a controller would kill it), THEN it'd be perfect. :'(
@@PerryFrank I know, and it also takes a big chunk of pedalboard space. This + a Disaster Area control would've been awesome. Hopefully they'll release a SY-200 sometime, that'd also be killer.
Hi Perry, great presentation I would say, what would you recommend Settings, like I play by genre Van Halen (jump)? Thank you. Hello. Good day and good work.
@@marcusstrymon693 I personally LOVE the organs. There are some wild ones, but also some simple serviceable ones. The HOLD function allows me to play my guitar with organ as accompaniment. Basically hold on the downbeat of each chord and the Organ just keeps on that chord while your guitar can solo over it or do more interesting rhythmic figures over it. When I record a straight organ part alone I usually use something in Logic via midi controller. But I have used the SY-1 for organ only on a couple recordings.
Does this pedal play well without glitches? I mean like if you do chords or fast motions does it handle it smoothly? Or spazz out? Lol that was my issue with some of these pedals
@@LochNessAnthony I think it depends on two main aspects. It has a great demand because of its great sound quality and it costs half than other synth pedals such as Meris Enzo. Here in Italy US pedals they costs even more because of the custom duties (over the 20% of the value)
yep, it's polyphonic meaning it can handle more than one string at once. monophonic synths however you can only play on one string at a time, no chords
The sounds are good, the only thing i don't like is you cant save many tones you want need to change knobs every time you want another, i think sy 300 is the best, i have a roland gr55 but cant use all the synthesizers because of extra ghost notes
Say Hi¡ Perry Frank..Do you know how many strings can be played at the same? It does in 5°, 8° scales. Just solos and arpeggios. And excuse me for my english¡ Thanks and Greetings from Argentina¡¡
No talks that' Great. But there is a way to save some presets and choose them after instantly (event with the use of other equipment, say pedals, midi) instead of using more than one sy-1?

Hello: Good review, one question, in organ mode can you play quietly as if you played normally or do you have to adapt the way you play to the sound? thank you very much, greetings.
Really ?? I’ve never heard any at least 75% 12 string sound from any synth or pedal. However, I’m sure with a two amp setup with a excellent compressor and a first rate pitch shifter you could get real close, also a EQ pedal to dial in the 2nd doubled string. Gonna try later.
Possibly single notes, not really chords. Remember that acoustic or electric 12 strings have all kinds of overtones, drones and pedals can’t possibly pickup all the increased harmonic content etc. Although somebody out there may have mixed up a few EQ and chorus and pitch shift pedals. But to throw 4 or 5 pedals in just to POSSIBLY get a 12 string sound, I don’t know.

May you find another one day!
thanks for showing all the tones. Question : can I mix my original guitar tone and 1 of these tone, so eventually I can hear both :my guitar tone and the Boss tone beside it ?
Yes you can, the first knob on the left lets you mix the volume of dry guitar and the volume of the effect
@@PerryFrank thank you
Could be cool if layered in as a really depthy melodic rhythm guitar. Could even stack
