BOSS SY-1000 - Introduction by Sef from Alex Henry Foster & the Long Shadows

A NEW ERA OF GUITAR SYNTH INNOVATION
BOSS SY-1000 is the most advanced guitar/bass synth we’ve ever made with limitless sound design options. Sef from Alex Henry Foster & the Long Shadows kindly introduces the architecture of SY-1000, unlocks awesome features of the SY-1000 for his sound creation and discovers how the SY-1000 and GK-3 Divided Pickup work with his creativity as a part of his rig.

Soar into the infinite, Sef said, "It would be very long to share all its functionality, but I shared how I have been using it for my work with Alex Henry Foster and my upcoming album “Modulation”. I can tell you guys, that this little toy changed my perspective on the meaning of the word “limitation” literally! It changed my way of crafting music, and now I don’t see how it could be possible to play without it!"

Best SY-1000 demo sounds I've heard so far.

Would you guys ever make a GK pickup for extended range guitars? I mean it would actually be great and I think more 7 and 8 string players are into these products more than 6 string players actually.

[johnniemitchelle]

Awesome tutorial. It's answering questions I had for a little while

[fredspivock]

Great work Sef! I'm really considering buy this, it's crazy what you are doing!

[luclouvel]

Hi mister Sef, one word : you're genius ! Friendships and kisses from FRANCE. See you....

[Aesopos]

Can you send midi out from the SY-1000 to another synth?

[RosalvoParadella]

Parece o Jim Carrey barbudo. Que pedal incrível, Boss !! Tenho uma Roland GR20 e ela ficaria matadora junto com esse SY1000. Quem sabe no futuro...

I've owned this since it came out over a year ago. Got rid of it once due to some issues and then got another one back. It's staying with me this time. Also hopefully this means a good firmware is coming soon to fix the dynamic synth issue among a few other issues that needs to be addressed on the SY-1000 and maybe some new features!! I also hope in the future they can make a guitar synth with all the sy-1000 features but also combine PCM synthesis and add in FM synthesis as well and more fx blocks and more send/returns as well on the back among a few other things! Also wish the normal path could be swapped into an INST path. Sometimes we don't wanna use the NORMAL path so it's sitting there doing nothing.

Awesome sounds...down side large learning curve and hours of tweaking.

[jasonmercado]

Finally a metal guy who knows how to use the sy1000.

I've owned the SY-1000 since last June of 2020 - he describes how deep it is very well - he could be a tutor on how to get the most out of the device!

[zoomzoom]

Boss really did little to market or provide tutorials for the SY-1000. It's a great, powerful device but it will be confusing and daunting for new owners unfamiliar with Roland/Boss guitar synthesizers.

As usual, the documentation is minimal, basic and focused on functional explanations without examples where users are left to introspect and disect factory presets to figure out how things work.

I recall a very good features / tutorial series on the SY-300 which I also own.

What happened to Alex Hutchings? Very little in Boss Tone Central for SY-1000.

If sales numbers are below expectations, it's due to Boss' failure to provide education, tutorials and in-depth demos.

Great product, failed marketing.

[kiezersosay]

Oh god i want one SO BAD! thanks to my carvin dc400 and my bc rich mockingbird legacy ST im done buying guitars. Now i NEED one of these guys. So many mind blowing capabilities and its possibilities pretty much only limited to ones imagination. It almost seems to good to be true. Thank you BOSS! Luckily i have some gear to sell and when i do im buying this beautiful beast IMMEDIATELY!

[zawadoslaw]

Why, when I have a GK3 pickup connected, does not work normal imput?

[JimsMusicJourney]

Looks like you installed the gk pickup backwards

[denisgrenierphoto]

Wow.... plus de limites de création! :O
