The sounds I use, the best pedal I own for each position. Missing is distortion but that is one of the gifts of the SY-1, just about any sound you want is in there somewhere. And with all else in the SY-1's parallel loop the synth effects come through unhindered and at whatever level I choose.

That's brilliant. Really nicely done.

Love this board. Need to sort out a way of powering my Compressore, without a separate mains plug. It's by far the best comp I've ever used.

Lee is a smashing bloke, just sold me a great pedal, which arrived perfectly packaged and in excellent condition. A pleasure to do business with, I happily recommend him to the community.

Ah yes, good point 🤦

While we're on the topic of noisy pedals, anyone any experience of this? https://www.thomann.de/gb/joyo_zgp_noise_blocker.htm

I had exactly this problem with the Zoom when used with other pedals. In the end I used batteries, or a rechargeable power bank

What colour is it? Wher can I buy one?

Brilliant absolutely brilliant.

Please God no! Trust us to be intelligent enough to get your meaning, and those who don't - well they're always going to struggle in a written forum aren't they?

Haven't done one of these for a while. So I thought it was about time. As usual my answer is yes in every case! Well almost. Please feel free to expand on your answers, or if you prefer a simple yes or no that's fine too. 1) Ever bought a pedal even though you know you already have the perfect pedal of that type? 2) Ever 'discovered' a pedal or pedals at home which you'd entirely forgotten owning? 3) Ever bought a pedal purely on its looks? 4) Ever bought a pedal purely on its name? 5) Ever been unable to bring yourself to sell a pedal you know you'll never use? 6) Ever decided a pedal was rubbish, sold it, then bought it again years later deciding it was you not the pedal at fault? 7) Ever built a board, or boards, comprising pedals all of the same brand for the sheer hell of it and yet never gigged them (and knew you never would)? 😎 Ever commission a hand built pedal, which is effectively just a big fuzz box, for more money than a Helix costs and have absolutely no regrets? 9) Ever bought a pedal just to p off a guitarist in a band? 10) any idea why 8 followed by a bracket comes out as a face in sunglasses? 11) Ever bought more than one of the same pedal ? Still got them both/all?

I saw one I think on Facebook for just over a hundred!

Ha ha, it's an in joke with us. She always calls me her bass player, so I return the compliment. Shes such a great singer she can call me what she likes.

Once joined a band because I just wanted to be in a band again. The drummer was kind of ok but uninspiring, the guitarist and band leader appeared to know the songs less well than I did, but I got the gig.] As time went on in became clear the guitarist had no sense of time, nor was he interested in learning. I'm now in another band with the same drummer who, it transpired, hadn't been playing very long when I first met him. He is a lovely bloke and a wonderful drummer. I suppose what I'm saying is you can't make any kind of valuable judgement of where a band will lead you.

Can't help but my singer is depping tomorrow for a band who's vocalist us a police officer!

This must be why the SY-1 is to be found so cheap second hand now. Might get another one.

I confess to being unimpressed by any band that soundchecks, is happy with the levels, but later tells me to turn down based on a complaint of one member of the audience. However, trying to argue this point with the BL during the performance was unprofessional of me. I had such a magnificent bass sound that night as well.
