When I bought this, I thought I would be using it to exclusively make synth sounds but it didn't work out that way. Really, the real strength of this pedal for me, is mixing low levels of synth sounds in with the guitar signal. It becomes it's own unidentifiable thing. Sounds like guitar but yet there is something a little strange about the sound of it.

@Gregorypeckory 11 ай бұрын

I think you've discovered the key to using pedals in a way to make you sound unique; If all you go for is out of the box sounds, it might sound good, but It also sounds exactly like everybody else that bought the same pedal.

Hi Dave. Nice demo. One thing I´d like to know is the signal-routing. If you have a signal chain of overdrives, wah etc, and would like to have a separate effects "pool" only for the sy-200.

@DaveWebbMusic 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate. That’s totally doable. They’ve designed it to integrate. Basically you can route your direct guitar through the sy200 and into your overdrives etc. and send the effect level to your seperate effects. But that’s where it’s left to suggestion. I’m still playing with it myself, but I think this is what you could try. You could send the effect to a second amp or whatever. You could route the effect into a combiner. I think (will have to try) you can put your overdrives etc in the sy200 loop and change that to your direct level, and then blend the 2 together. Off the top of my head, that’s a few options you could try. Would love to hear how you go!

Hey mate. Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying the videos. As far as I am aware, the SY-200 sequences and arpeggios are set. It offers a few variations, but you can’t change them.

Question on the Mem/Ctrl 1 switch. I was reading the manual, and saw the hold function of the switch could be reassigned. Can you reassign both the tap and hold functions? Say I had a 2 button external foot switch for memory up and down, could I assign the tap to a pitch bend, and the hold to the sustain setting? Or would the tap always have to be either memory up or down?

@DaveWebbMusic 2 жыл бұрын

From what I can tell, an external 2 button foot switch, 1 will always be memory up/down, but I think you can reassign the other. As for the switch on the pedal, it’s much the same. Memory up/down always, and can reassign the ctl1 button. But I did just realise that you can choose to remove the Memory up/down from that button so it will act only as the ctl1 button. Eg. Hold, pitch etc.

@charlywp Жыл бұрын

Hi Dave, thx for your review of the SY-200. I tried out the pedal at my music dealer's today and wasn't really satisfied. Though the D. Level was set to a minimum there was always the guitar sound in the background, too. Is there a way to eliminate the guitar sound completely, e.g. when selecting an organ sound? In your examples I can't hear the guitar.

@DaveWebbMusic Жыл бұрын

When you set the direct level to 0, it will be completely gone, and all parameters can be saved for each patch. My guess is that the direct level knob was down, but the patch level had been saved with it up. The knobs don’t relate to the level while you’re changing patches. Think of the knobs as ‘quick access’ scrolling to set a patch. Then save, and your patch is set! 🤘🏼

Hi Dave, quick question for you (or anyone else reading this that may have a solution.) If I hold out a note or chord and switch programs there is a short gap where the sound drops out while the next program loads. It's a very short gap, but enough that it is noticeable (and annoying). Is there any way to get rid of the gap (i.e. gapless switching) so that if I switch programs mid song via my midi pedal the guitar doesn't drop out for a split second? You have a section in the video where you demonstrate midi, but you stop playing each time before switching programs so I wasn't able to tell if you had the same issue. Note: the gap is there whether using a midi pedal or manually switching programs via the memory footswitch on the pedal or the memory knob, so it doesn't appear to be an issue with the midi pedal. The pedal is great, but the gap thing is enough to deter me from ever switching programs mid song live, which was a big part of why I bought it. Any help appreciated!

@DaveWebbMusic Жыл бұрын

Hey man. As far as I can tell, you can’t get rid of the gap. End of the day, it just takes that long to load the next patch. If you have effects on, such as delay and reverb, having them spill over into the next patch will help cover it. I know that’s not ideal, but unfortunately in this case I don’t think there is a way around it. Mess with your guitar sound that’s blended in, mess with the effects, and try to get it as best you can. I know the frustration with the gaps in switching, trust me! If you’re changing mid song, change when there’s drum fill, or a big vocal section. It helps.

Got some questions. 1- How does the Sound Hold function work? Can I simply play on it while holding a synth or pad sound i.e.? And when the hold mode is active, is it possible to change the preset without breaking that held sound? 2- Are the factory presets actually created with the settings that are also tweakable by the user? I mean, if I delete a patch, it's gone for good or can I simply create the same with the available settings?

@DaveWebbMusic 4 ай бұрын

Good questions! 1 - Yes, that’s exactly how it works. The effect sound holds and you can play over top with your guitar tone. I’ve not tried changing patches while holding, but I’m going to say no it won’t work. The hold function is per patch, so I’d imagine the hold wouldn’t carry over between changes. 2 - factory presets use the built in settings. You can do whatever you like with them eg. delete, duplicate, overwrite, recreate… etc.

It’s amazing isn’t it! I think I understand what you’re asking. None of the 128 presets are set in stone, you can change effect and dial in something completely different, eg. organ instead arpeggio and save it in that preset position. Then, say you have 5 favourites that you always use, put those in slots 1-5, or 25-30, basically wherever you want them, then in settings you can change the ‘extent’ option to scroll through that range effects. So it scroll from 1 to 5, then straight back around to 1 again. I hope that helps.

So, when you write the patch to the preset, the knob value you set is saved, and will be recalled at that value because it is a preset. The value will change when you turn the knob, but you will need to save it again if you want it to stay that way. Think of the knobs as an easy way to adjust the presets you save.

I’ve definitely tested passing midi through. Works great. I haven’t specifically done messages from the SY200, but the option in the pedal is the same as any other BOSS unit. As for sending and recording midi notes, I don’t see how it would work. The midi in/out is designed to send messages, not notes. And the main outputs are audio only.

Yes, midi messages in does work. I use my GT-1000 and a Morningstar midi controller to change the SY-200. I have a few videos where I demo this.

It does blow my mind that they wouldn’t make this thing stereo,

I know right! But let’s be honest, it’s a smart business move…

@@DaveWebbMusic Why is that? Because people will buy it anyway? They have competition that does run in stereo, so I'm not sure why it's a smart business move. I think it probably just didn't allow them to keep the price at $300.

@@JeighNeither Firstly I don’t understand why they didn’t make it stereo. Surely it could have been integrated in whilst keeping the cost down. And secondly I am of the opinion that most successful companies (this is not directly only at BOSS) hold off on releasing everything at once. Plus they have the SY1000 which has stereo in/out. This SY200 is so great I feel like it would pull focus too much if it had everything. This is entirely an opinion of course!

Sorry for criticising your work but a cartoon filter making everything muddy when showing pedal wasn't the best choice in my opinion. Other than that, amazing information there.

Yeah, it was a choice at the time. Needless to say it doesn’t get used much anymore.
