Synth sound on Zoom B3n Pedal?

[Lobstrosity]

I got a Zoom B3n about a year ago, and it has lots of fun effects and presets. I haven't found a combination of settings to make a good synth sound yet. The pre-set patch doesn't sound great!

Can anyone suggest what settings to use for a good synth sound?

I didn't find any usable synth sounds from my B3n. I loved mine too, but for synths, not much use. To be fair, my HX stomp is pretty useless for synths too.

+1^^

 

Not yet come across a multifx that does synth sounds well, despite having owned and gigged quite a few! 

 

Dedicated synth pedals definitely seem to do the job better.

So , what's your shortlist of recommendations @Al Krow ?

I can get a few usable synth patches from my Boss GT1-B, but it's hampered by the number of effects you can use in any one patch.

 

I imagine it's much easier to build your own synth patches with fewer restrictions on the number of blocks of effects you can use?

And an actual keyboard synth will do the job even better.
