You can combine and layer them for an endless range of sounds. Every instrument offers an extensive set of parameters for tone shaping, mixing, and tuning. A normal 1/4-inch input is also available, allowing you to blend regular guitar/bass pickup sounds alongside the three instruments.The SY-1000 also features the all-new Dynamic Synth, which takes guitar synthesis to new heights. GK processing and speedy DSP track your instrument's characteristics with precision detail, allowing you to craft sounds never before possible.

A large selection of electric, acoustic, and bass guitar types are available, each with independent tuning, EQ, virtual amp settings, and more.

The SY-1000's USB audio/MIDI interface opens a world of creative options with your favorite DAW. With the GK input, you're able to record each of your instrument's strings to separate audio tracks, either processed live or captured dry for later "re-synth" processing through the SY-1000.
