Behringer releases 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!

Tune the Beat
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.

Dynamics at Your Fingertips
Movement and dynamics are important in creating exciting rhythms which is why the SY-1 also features a pitch sweep function, which lets you create dramatic pitch dives and rises with speed, range, and up/down controls to create special effects and transitions. Additionally, the SY-1 has an LFO with square and triangle waves, which can modulate the pitch or the filter for unique vibrato effects.

Eurorack Ready
The SY-1 is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case and can be integrated with other modules to expand its sonic possibilities or be placed alongside other instruments for a truly unique setup. Just connect the power cables to the power supply and mount the module using the included screws.
