Woodinblack Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 I thought the FI was great, and very powerful, but for a gigging situation, the only one on my board is the SY200 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoirBass Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Just resurrecting this thread - a year later how do the SY-200 users still feel about it? Are you’d still using it live? Did you end up selling it for something else? It seems like the device I need at the moment for copping a few 80’s synth lines on covers gigs, I want to see if I can be talked out of it.

Currently I don't as I have just redone my board and currently we don't have the songs that need it (as we changed guitarists), however, I still have it and I will use it at some point, its still a good device. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like the device I need at the moment for copping a few 80’s synth lines on covers gigs, I want to see if I can be talked out of it. Been using a full pedal board live for a little while with a Zoom B1-4 multifx at its heart, rather than just the B1-4 as a standalone multifx and tuner. Found a really good bit-crusher sim ("Lo fi") on the SY 200, which I've tweaked to suit my personal taste. I don't recall having a bit-crush feature on the SY-1? If so, this is a really nice-to-have additional capability. The patch seems very usable e.g. for a Sweet Dreams/Eurythmics style bass line and probably means my dedicated bit crusher pedal could be for the chop, in which case the SY 200 just paid for itself! The polyphonic & superb tracking that the Boss SY pedals have also means I don't need to worry about noisy glitches during a song, which was a key reason for going with this in preference to a couple of the market leading alternatives.

BabyBlueSound Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Good to know there is a synth pedal that actually works. The Electro Harmonix Bass Synth was SO disappointing in terms of tracking & triggering... I'll have to check some vids about this SY-200 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Love the sy200 set up I’ve got going atm going straight to foh, do also have a fuzzrocious BDPG after it adding a bit more grit but adds another level to the sound big fuzz sounds sound even bigger when there’s a synth under them aswell!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Been enjoying using the Arp setting + Ctrl switch to "hold" for a fixed pitch to avoid it sounding too busy when playing a riff + an expression pedal for either fx volume / arp pitch shift with ability to tailor the interval. The SY 200 maybe has a wider use on pitch shift, particularly given how good its tracking is - definitely able to rival the multifx and dedicated pitch shift pedals I've previously tried out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Boss SY 200 Arp setting & expression pedal A little clip to demonstrate it in action. (I definitely need to get more accustomed to using an expression pedal, haha! And in case it's bugging anyone, the key is the one our singer prefers) Edited November 28, 2023 by Al Krow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
