  • I wish you could also review the SYB-3 to have a proper comparison between the two. It's hard to find online a good video like this for it

  • Back when I started making electronic music, being on a budget I bought the first version of this pedal. It had tracking issues if it didn’t receive a clean note, so any glide or more than one note made it burp out nonsense. There was also a bit of latency when using the synth function. But, used correctly, it turned any cheap toy keyboard into a synth. I tended to use the envelope follower the most. Modern variants of this pedal have come a long way in terms of tracking and latency.

  • This is the best demo I have ever witnessed of the SYB-5. You absolutely knocked it out of the park! Tastefully covered the range of the pedal without any talking as well?! A++

  • There are "better" synth pedal options out there these days but this is still my favorite one because of its simplicity and sound. Flaws and all…I love this thing. Combine it with overdrive, fuzz, an octaver, chorus or whatever and you get so many great sounds out of this little box.

  • Excellent review, very well done. I especially appreciate the graphics showing the waveform visually for the different settings, nice job on that for sure. I have this pedal. In my experience, for what I play, it can be an all-star pedal for one important part of one song during a setlist. When I was in a pop band, I used it for a Katy Perry song, and it crushed it on doing that job. Didn't use it beyond that, but it was killer for that one thing. And with all of the different waveforms and knob twisting possibilities, you can make that "one thing" a lot of different things. Right now, it's not on my pedalboard because I'm in a classic rock band with a keyboard player… but I'm 100% hanging on to the pedal, because the next use for it will come up someday.

  • Aaargh, it burns, the tuning!
    Always these syb things seem out of tune and the latency. Maybe the 5 is faster?
