Expensive Notes - SY-1000 (Guitar Synth) and Volca Drum Ambient Jam

[Allomerus]

I am using the Replicant patch from the Boss Sy-1000 guitar synthesizer (my new toy). You will probably appreciate this is a patch honouring the music from 'Blade Runner'. This patch just sounds so good... I had to play with it!

thats pretty fat!
tempted by that pedal for a while, but its a little pricey (isnt everything we love ) and other things keep popping up...

look forward to many more pieces with this, i imagine theres a lot of inspiration, just scrolling through the presets

have fun

love the almost close encounters moments

Lovely sounds here John. That should keep you busy for a while. I see that the SY-1000 has an on-board GR-300 emulation, so you should be able to reproduce those King Crimson and Steve Hackett sounds from the early '80s. Prog on.

Good work

Thanks vurt. It is pretty expensive but it means I can use just it by itself to make lots of sounds. So setting up is straight forward. I could pay for it by selling a lot of gear I don't need anymore.

Cool! Nice and mellow synth sound played with guitar.. slow and strong ambiance

[excuse me please]

Thank you sir, that was very nice

Allomerusaurus,
Thank you for the review! This is the latest thread of yours that I came across that I already hadn't commented on. At first I couldn't tell you were triggering a synth sound with your guitar. It does have a Vangelis Yamaha CS-80 sound, which is pretty cool!

great. if you're playing a chord and the notes are too close together, its gets a little muddy.
but, you got a nice sound out of it.

very 2001 spacey. always love a good filter sweep and that one is FAT.
just add a little arp in sync with the drum to carry it along, perhaps
panning left and right and coming in and out for a little extra dimension?
looks like alot of fun.

Thanks Tim. It does have some great sounds. I actually have a real GR-300 but it has always been hard to play to my satisfaction so it's great to have this new synth with so many sounds.

Thanks Markku! Appreciate your comment even though I didn't respond earlier!

Thank you "excuse me please"! To the point.

Thanks bansaw. I had noticed what you mention about the closeness of notes and tried to avoid that, but it was a jam... Some snuck through unfortunately. I do like the sound though!
