This amazing tool is packed with 121 ultra-sensitive sounds, all condensed into a single pedal, making it easy to use with any setting.

Features

Expressive synthesizer sounds, no programming required
The SY-1 transforms any guitar or bass into a versatile synthesizer that's fun, inspiring, and ready to play anytime. This super cool pedal offers a vast selection of analog-style synthesizer sounds while taking up minimal space on the motherboard. More importantly, all sounds are polyphonic, allowing you to play single notes and chords.

Plug and play with no delay
The SY-1 requires only a standard 1/4-inch cable to work with any guitar or bass, providing a simple plug-and-play experience. Thanks to its custom DSP and the latest BOSS innovations, the SY-1 delivers zero-latency performance, a natural extension of your instrument that allows you to play freely and organically without altering your usual technique in any way.
