Behringer Classic Dual Analog Percussion Synthesizer

Experience the legendary sound and feel of a classic analog percussion synth with the Behringer SYNCUSSION SY-1. Based on the classic dual analog percussion synthesizer from the '70s, The original has been used by legendary artists such as Prince, Kraftwerk, and Herbie Hancock. Now, you can have the same dynamic and iconic sound without burning a hole in your pocket!

The SY-1 offers six oscillator modes, each with a different character and timbre. You can choose from single oscillator, FM, dual oscillator mix, dynamic oscillator mix, FM/noise mix, and pure noise. Each mode can be shaped by adjusting the tune, decay, and filter cutoff controls. This allows you to create a wide range of percussive sounds and effects, from deep kicks and snappy snares to metallic clangs and sci-fi zaps. The SY-1 can also be triggered using drum pads, a drum machine like the Behringer RD-8 or any other external triggers.
