Polyphonic Synth Pedal for Guitar and Bass

Packing a huge range of synthesizer sounds into a compact, easy-to-use BOSS pedal format, the BOSS SY-1 Guitar Synthesizer pedal is loaded with creative potential. This polyphonic guitar synth doesn’t require any extra hardware on your guitar, and you don’t need to know anything about programming synth sounds to get the best out of it. Just plug your guitar or bass in, select from 121 vibrant sounds, and start exploring. Sounds range from classic analog tones to leads, basses, layered organs, sweeping pads, and even arpeggiated sequences. Complete with a parallel send/return loop to integrate with other effects, the BOSS SY-1 Guitar Synthesizer Pedal is a value-packed solution for generating synth sounds with your guitar or bass.

Over 100 synth sounds in a single pedal

121 sounds, to be precise. Select from 11 core synth types, like leads, pads, and bass, then select from 11 variations of that core synth sound. No special pickup system or other hardware is required, and the results are expressive and dynamic. Whether you’re looking to highlight a specific song section, or are creating complete synth scores with your guitar, you’ll be proud of the sounds you can create with the BOSS SY-1 guitar synth pedal.

Optimized for both guitar and bass

Guitarists and bassists alike can take advantage of the SY-1’s synth sounds. You’ll find a mode switch to optimize its pitch tracking for either guitar or bass — select the appropriate instrument, and you’re ready to play. Using the blend control, you can mix your guitar or bass tone along with the synth tone.

Send/Return loop for routing flexibility

Adventurous musicians appreciate the SY-1 pedal’s send/return loop, which opens up a lot of creative possibilities. This loop can be mixed in parallel with the main synth output, allowing you to use other effects pedals to add another layer to your synth sound — try a slow phaser into a deep, fast tremolo to add a whole new element of movement and depth. Or you could use the send as a direct output, routing the synth sound to a different amplifier.
