Hi there!

Man. This sounds like a trip to space and back. Impressive and very very inspiring playing here.

Your playing is just so inspiring and beautiful . Really it's been years since i follow your differents projects and i'm never bored or dissapointed. My wish is that you will be able to do some Workshop or guitar camp all around Europe to spread your awesome vibes. Cheers Men !

Absolutely beautiful intro, dude! And the last jam around 19:07. KILLER!! You are the man!!

Your note choice is always impeccable dude. Love watching you play.

There are pedal demos and then there are Rabea pedal demos! Nobody else goes to these lengths to truly integrate the pedal into the context of a rig/song and this was truly inspiring and ingenious. So much so I'm very tempted to buy one myself just to emulate those sounds you created and even use them in my bands songs. You shed light on a way to use this pedal I hadn't even thought of. I had the SY-1 briefly but you're right that it was dumb not to be able to remotely switch between presets. I also agree that 90% of the sounds on this thing sound dates, cheesy and pretty much unusable and I wish Boss had spent more time creating more modern synth tones. But you managed to create some epic sounds regardless.

Yeah its quiet; possibly the most useful demo ever done on it. What a Monster demo Mate. Bloody hell.

Just got one. There are so many sounds that you can get out of this pedal. Amazing!

Yeah you’re paraphrasing to meet your needs. He didn’t say that 90% of this thing sounds cheesy, he just said they were what he would personally use.

Hahah that Matt Bellamy call out got me, I remember hearing that for the first time and couldn’t un hear it 😂 Amazing demo as always!!

Just got my Sy200... cannot wait to get stuck in. Thanks for the demo dude!

That was a very cool presentation as usual ... possibilities to enhance compositions are awesome with a such pedal :-)

THIS is why i always watch Bea for choosing gear ~ mate you use it precisely with the style and spirit that it should be, not with guys who try to cram power chords and blues licks to any pedal...thank you so much Bea 🤗

Bea these pedal reviews are so sick from a creative and educational standpoint lately! You just make me want to pick up my guitar, play along and be better every-time... so inspiring to watch bro 🤘🔥

amazing pedal.the effects and sounds are out of this world.wesome demonstration.

Awesome demo, sounds great when blended like that.

You’re best video ever no exaggeration. Felt you writing a blade runner theme song before my eyes and I’m genuinely blown away. Have an amazing day

Terrific sound!!! Thanks for the review man!

Your play style is killer! Amazing melodies, brother. Thanks for the demo!

PHAT Man !! Some ABSOLUT Stunning sounds you get out of that Pedal ..

Oh my! Those are some killer sounds you get out of that thing! I definetly NEED that pedal now! 🤩

What an incredible demo! If I had any confidence in being able to recreate anything remotely like you played it would be an Insta-buy!

So cool cant wait to buy it it is exactly the pedal sounds i was looking for ,for long time!

Awesome use of this thing, my guy! Killer sounds 👍🏾

The Matt Belamy thing absolutely wrecked me! Thanks, Rabea 😂

Great demo, great guy. Have a great day.

Nice movie soundtrack sounds! Rabea, you're the most versatile guitar KZreadr I've ever heard and super talented!

Hahahaha the Matt Bellamy bit, when I noticed that it took me a looooong time to get used to it! Great vid Bea 🔥

Wtf that was bloody amazing @ 5:00 Stroll on! Bravo Sir!

AMAZING! I hope to see you in April in my town with Frog Leap. Bring the pedal!

Great Gods man your playing is just freaking amazing and inspiring. Been eyeballing this pedal since it was announced. I get along alright on the keys but when I want to stay in the zone on my guitar, the last thing I want to do is fart around with Analog Lab for hours. I can see this fitting into my post-rock/shoegaze stuff quite easily.

Epic sounds ❤

Rabea, you really should try and get into some movie soundtracks. Every time I hear your ambient stuff I csn imagine it in the background of a movie. You'd be great at it.

Was just thinking the same thing while watching this review!

I have the SY-1 on my pedalboard with a similar signalpath. My guitar goes into the input of the SY-1. All pre preamp effects and the preamp stage of my amp are in the FX-Loop of the SY-1 and from the output of the SY-1 I send the signal to delay and reverb into the power amp.

GENIUS!!!!! You have such a melodic brain

I been saving for the SY-1. So, I guess I'll keep saving!

Bought one and the Exp Pedal after this review. Was however interested in the big brother SY100 and will grab one if i learn and use the SY200 enough. One of my favourite videos for sure

Synth pedals are so consistently underrated, glad to see you embrace them so fully and use them so tastefully. Also re: your wish for low-end independence in your synth patches, you could use a programmable EQ right after the synth sound to manually attenuate everything about a certain frequency band. It's a crude solution, but something that might work, and if it's a MIDI-capable EQ, you could sync it to remove different things for different patches.

Holy shit! You could write an entire album around this pedal!

You could do that with anything

Brands should pay top dollar for this. If not, please request top money. Your reviews are the best on the internet, Bea!

this is the demo i was looking for

Loved the badger and squirrel sequence man! 😂

See that Jump riff is why I still love GK-Pickup synth stuff, you can hold the low note and still play the riff with a polyphonic synth sound. I would love an SY pedal for my board though, way less stressful for gigs.

That's a cool idea! I have the SY300, so that should be possible... holding one of the 3 oscillators and using the other two for polyphonic leads.

great video ☀

This Pedal is DAMM COOL and i think you can get Addicted to it ..and it´s a BOSS Pedal ...THE Gold Standard since the 70s ...

This is EXACTLY the kind of thing we're doing in our music right now! Thank you so much for the demo and for showing me that it is possible with this pedal. I would like to know if you can go through a chord progression with the hold/drone feature. Anybody who has the pedal is welcome to answer. Thanks!

Amazing

BEST Vid of this Pedal ..WHAT SOUNDS ..

This is a pedal that grows on you quick! You just keep discovering new ways of using it! it’s like having some kind of robot band mate? that plays along with you, if that makes any sense! It’s great fun and worth getting

Great Channel ..Damm cool Stuff

Grat setup

Love your demos bro! I have a question. I use a 10 loop Midi looper (RJM PBC). If I plugged my guitar into the input of the SY, then had the send go to the input of my looper, run all my loops like I normally would, then have the output of the looper go back to the return, would I be able to maintain my normal guitar signal when the SY is bypassed? and then have everything run parallel when the SY is engaged? Thanks!

Cool sounds….great playing. The latter is the real source of inspiration.

You can make anything sound great but that pedal's perfect for you.

some seriously cool stuff came out love it haha. The face you had at the end of playing van halen at the beginning is the exact face and feeling i get when something just sounds really fuckking cool haha Also that Tele is looking utterly killer with the new scratch place to match the strat too drooooling

That setup just sounds amazing!

Hi Rabea. Superb demo..many thanks... can you comment on the attack response... had a b9 pedal that was frustrating because there was a verrrrrrrry small (but noticeable) delay between the attack of the pick and the generated sound. Has boss solved that issue?

Hi Rabea - great demo. I have a question about the effects loop.... Do you still hear the effects loop when the synth is off? E.g if I have a chorus pedal in the loop do I hear the chorussed guitar when the synth is switched off. Then when I switch the synth on do I (depending on D-Level/E-Level mix) hear chorussed guitar and chorussed synth? Or can I set it go get chorussed guitar and "dry" synth? Cheers Jon

I am watching this currently wearing my own “French lizard tail” or Tiger Camouflage pants. Unfortunately I cannot say I am also playing through the same array of gear and instruments that you have, but at least there’s the similar pants that sound quite good with any parameter setting. Great video.

Yes. Tiger Stripe camo. You will be able to do nighttime assaults on your mom's refrigerator!

Came here just to see what Boss recently released. Ended by adding something new to my Sweetwater wish list.

Hi Rabea, love what you’ve done with this pedal. Any chance you’d make your Quad Cortex preset you’ve made for this available on your Cortex Cloud profile? Just so it’s easier for us to hook up our own setup like this?

12:54 min ...OMG!!!! Pink Floyd Sound What a DAMM Great sounding Unit .. Boy you got it ON!!! I BUY THAT !!

amazing demo question: I have a stereo rig/ integrating an FX loop I just got this pedal could you publish a wiring diagram ( perhaps utilizing an AB switch) where I can run the pedal independently or the guitar independently and then of course mixing the two together?

I was really feelin it for that badger 🙌

Haha Matt’s breathing and his “Nnn” before a next line! Speaking of Muse this would be great for some Muse songs.

Awesome video man! are you able to use just the effects in the SY-200 effects loop.....with no SY-200 sounds going on? Cheers.

The JUMP!

There will be a small market but those guys will love it.

Thanks so much for this exposé! How about in the snd/return loop of the NUX MG-30? Would that work?

Another brilliant demo video Rabea, here’s the 1 thing I don’t like about this pedal. The voices!!! I have a gr55 with the gk pickup, I have an eventide h9max. Amidst all that I have a plethora of other pedals in my chain plus I run various korg, Casio and Roland synths via the midi from the gr55 and h9. I am synth’d out to the max yet I can hear the sy200 voices calling me. Put me in your signal chain. Put me behind, in front, in series, parallel. Just put me in your signal chain. Put me behind…..it goes on….in a loop. Godamit man, just as well I’m doing overtime at work 😉

I’ve been waiting for you to review this pedal just to see if it’s worth me buying or not, if it’s got Rabea’s approval then it’s going on my pedalboard lol

Very cool Demo and of course playing! It sounds interesting! But there is only one output, is it right. No separate output for guitar and one saperate for synth?

Dude, awesome. thank you, I hope that I can come close to a rig setup.

inspiring 👍🏻

holy smokes that MAYONES sounds incredible.

amazing

Great demo Rabea. Congrats! One question: On the SY1, the Lead synths don't really work above about high E (12th fret, high E string) Notes above that just go dead. Can you play above the high E with the SY200 ? Thanks! Best - Andy

I started seeing the trailer for Tron the sequel in the back of my mind during a few chords 😍

I am also curious about what Andrew’s Question. Could someone be so kind to chime in on this question? Thanks: Love your demos bro! I have a question. I use a 10 loop Midi looper (RJM PBC). If I plugged my guitar into the input of the SY, then had the send go to the input of my looper, run all my loops like I normally would, then have the output of the looper go back to the return, would I be able to maintain my normal guitar signal when the SY is bypassed? and then have everything run parallel when the SY is engaged? Thanks! Really enjoy all you do Rebea

You could do an entire Spooky Season drop with this setup. Just crazy dark synthy goodness to play on a loop to set the mood!

Can you share the Quad Cortex patch so we can emulate the SY-200 stereo rig you've got setup?

Awesome!!! What make/model is the blue guitar in this video?

In a live context, would you run the setup the same? Or, split the signal and send the synth direct to the PA or a dedicated keyboard amp? I f’ing a lot (most all) guitar amps do not do well with the synth signal due to the wide ranging tones and extreme high and low note capability that the synth can put out.

Personally I'd split it and send it to the PA, gives the sound guy control over the level but it will sound better than coming through a guitar amp. However it all depends on the sounds you want. If you like the sound coming through the amp then run it through the amp, if you don't then run it through the PA. Hope this helps

It’s like the squeaky bass pedal in led Zeps ‘since I’ve been loving you’ once you hear it that’s all you can hear. I pointed it out to my brother and then he took me off his Christmas card list.

Thanks I’m about to pick up this unit but I’m hoping I don’t regret it because the Sy-300 seems much better than this unit, but if the 200 can trigger other hardware and software synths with little to no latency,. I will be fine with the 200. Can you confirm this feature for me with little latency? Or should I wait and save for the Sy-300s extra sound design power? And what ac adapter should I get for the Sy-200? Thanks so much for your help man.

Thats massive, would be cool if you maybe draw how you connected and mixed everything stereo+dry+synth

IS there any alternative for Neural DSP Quad Cortex? OR you need only an aby to split the sounds between sy200 and the guitar?

What an epic Owl 🦉

I use an sy-1 in my band. Wish it had presets. And I really only use a handful of sounds. Expensive upgrade to get what I really want to play live.

Sounds od mother earth 😎

Thanks so much Rabea! Got a poly blue octave but latency is bad. Probably going to swap with SY.

Found your channel from Frog Leap's channel. Rock on!

I wonder if the same kinda setup can be done with just Helix and SY200. Coz i am seriously considering adding this to my live rig and it can make my band sound huge. As we are just 4 people on stage.

Nice review. Certainly a bit more expensive than the Boss 200 series Delay, Modulation and OD pedals. Is there a Boss 200 series Reverb Pedal on the way?

Can anyone tell me how to change pre-sets with the pedals please? I cant find any info on it including in the manual! Obviously the on/off switch it self explanatory but from what I can see, the CTRL switch just seems to cycle through the pre-sets upwards. how do you cycle down from pre-set 2 to pre-set 1 for example?

This versus the Meris Enzo? Also - hows the tracking? I always struggled to play riffs with these things - seem to be more of a hold chords and enjoy thing.

Those are the very baddest assed riffs! Make songs with that shit immediately Rabea... Damn!

I've been using EHX Synth9 for all these while and very please with the sound. I'm playing acoustic guitar. Should try this pedal as well later

Been a SY1 user for awhile in conjunction with the Helix....one path is dry guitar tone with splash of Helix verb, one is SY1 with Helix effects post split L/R end of that chain & can control both paths with expression pedals it's effin huge!! Might be pulling trigger on SY200 now 🤦🤣👍🏻

How would u accomplish this if you wanted to use a marshall jcm800 into a 1960a cab as opposed to the quad cortex?

I’m interested to see how this stacks up to something like a Micro synth or the HOG

Evh would be proud of Jump rendition.

Super useful in a power trio
