    OVERALL OPINION

    THIS NOTICE IS A CORRECTION: the Boss SYB-3 is a synth numérioque, specifically that the "VA", "virtual analog" or "analog modeling," an effects processor that recreates the sounds and their functions analos ... but it is not an analogue orscillateur within, out of digital ... ett, however, listen:

    Mono synth bass effects electric or other instrument to play monophonic + buzz + poly type auto wah Bass Balls.

    There is no memory or control while you play, we must do the little note on a paper settings. If we insert hack after the fact can do what you want. It seems more usable to treat loops or keyboards with one hand free to move around the sound.

    Live on the bass, there are interesting effects, but it must be clean and sharp (tracking improvement, at the same time is what makes it a bit strange)

    The connector allows you to exit the processed sound of a PA or an amp and direct sound (ie low) on a dedicated amp. That's good, because it gives the body a trio (see Muse)

    I put 8 because tracking requires good discipline live.

    UTILIZATION

    It's simple to understand, but it just take time to find the right sound (toukours live on bass). On an MPC or a keyboard sequence, there is a breeze, the flexibility of the side effects and make the living of the Syb-3 huge!

    10 in treatment (loops, synths, basses of Rhodes) or 7 in live mode on bass, because there it is a little complicated ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound quality is excellent on the sequence and insert processing, the lower it can be very impressive, but it must not abuse, it can tire around you!

    I love the buzz and the SAW filter is self funky.

    Small tests on the day of unpacking the box:

    OVERALL OPINION

    I did that for ten days and I think it's something that we discover the interest over the project and uses, it is an effect for hackers.

    the -: tracking hazardous, the absence of poly mode on waveform (you need not ask)
    The +: Analog grain, the living sound and control, the versatile side (loop, BAR, bass, keyboard, sound, etc ...)
    It is expensive for a pedal, but when compared to filters in a rack, it is given ... (160 euros new, discontinued)

    Yes I do it again this election, even if there are better in EH and Moog (not the same price). To the guy who is a bassist, it's like gadget that can be tiring. But as can be twisted with a lot of things ...

    2 saturslgrement dyed effects rjouiront electro rockers of the most bass players to develop a line of powerful bass guitars that play derrire plutt in clean, then use o to mark atmospheres of small parts in your songs (intro, bridge ..).

    2-wha t effect, finally, a color that provide enjoyable trs trs pretty deep your sound.

    Finally, note the effect prsence a "hold" on the first 7 sound that works by keeping the feet on the pedals. Tablecloths simple but practical to set up environments.

    UTILIZATION

    Like all BOSS pedals, this effect is provided with an input and two outputs Stereo and a compartment for battery and connection to mains supply.

    Configuration child. Tinker and the potentiomtres arrtez you when you get what you pay attention. The opportunity to work its sounds remain limited (no delay or water type electro synthtiseur.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Overall, the pedals designed to plutt slappeurs and music lovers funk. The most classic of us who play in rock bands, pop on the basis of sixteenth notes (mdiator fingers) will dboussols. The bravest will find their account, however, to color their pieces because the pedals can be used to dvelopper of nice ambiance.

    The biggest problem with the pedals is that the effect engages the attack but it does not sustain the total, so it produces a sharp cutoff trsdsagr Able and master all impossible.

    I use it with a team of '74 Jazzbass russi Bartoloni pickups and an amp SVT III pro.

    OVERALL OPINION

    A heavy investment for pedals that do not rpond all expectations it promises on paper. However, it remains particulirement enthusiasm for his originality and the unique opportunities it offers.

    I use it for several years but have come as trs rarely use it effectively in my compositions. Perfect to color 2 or 3 pieces in a directory.

    If c'tait again, I should probably not throw as fast on the pedals to me yet do not complete. It is the obviousness, no pedals for those who want to purchase a hardware cost (that is, to use the effect in full configuration).

    Really cool synth simulation for bass

    Boss SYB-3 Bass SynthesizerPublished on 05/10/10 at 18:27
    This is a really cool synthesizer effect pedal. It only works well with bass (sorry guitarists!). I think for the most part, this is kind of like an old-school analog synth pad, at least in terms of sound. There is a quarter inch input, and two outputs (use one for mono, and use the other as a dry out). This would appear to be an analog pedal but because it is Boss I'm tempted to say that it is digital. Either way it sounds analog, so just pretend it is. This cannot be edited in any way, be it computer or MIDI, and can't be racked either.

    UTILIZATION

This cannot be edited in any way, be it computer or MIDI, and can't be racked either.

    UTILIZATION

    This isn't a difficult pedal to use. Don't expect to change to different synth sounds on the fly. There are four knobs. One is a resonant filter, one is a decay control, and one (Mode) controls the type of effect. There's also a knob on the left that controls the amount of affected signal mix with the dry signal. The manual will explain what everything does, but the best way to get used to using this pedal is simply to plug it in and start experimenting, looking for the sounds you want.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use this with my P-Bass more often than not. The pre-amp of this pedal drastically alters the tone, emulating that of an analog synth. It is monophonic, but that's to be expected with the bass. I don't even know the names of most of the tones I like, if they even have names, but I'm a fan of them all for the most part. There is just enough control over the sound to make it diverse, but not enough to become overwhelming. I think that most people who need diversity in their bass tones from song to song would do well to check out this thing, it's got a ton of useful functions. I think that if you play in a hip-hop band (they exist!) you should grab this, it'll make things super funky!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I can't say there's anything I don't like about this pedal, other than the fact that I don't use it all that much (I usually don't need a synth bass). This is great for emulating Bootsy on his wilder P-Funk cuts, and stuff like that. Really cool effect, I highly recommend it. Not too expensive either, don't pay more than 170 for it.
