Members eti Posted June 12, 2015 Members Share Posted June 12, 2015 It's like the EHX HOG in that you can just plug any guitar straight into it, so it's a pedal, right? [video=youtube;9EdzJz5X2-c] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Yup - no special (hex / GK-2 / GK-3 et al) pickup required - just plug in any standard electric guitar. I've already asked Boss to send me one to check out, and we're now on their list, so as soon as they start shipping out the review units I'll test it out and post a full review.

Members eti Posted June 13, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2015 Looking forward to your review, Phil! I have a feeling this synth is going to have a surprise or two in store, and I hope they are pleasant ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Trick Fall Posted June 13, 2015 Members Share Posted June 13, 2015 Definitely interested in that. Phil, I'm looking forward to your review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 It may be a little while - they're not shipping yet... but like I said, I've already asked and we were put on the list, so hopefully as soon as they have the review units ready...

Members ck3 Posted June 21, 2015 Members Share Posted June 21, 2015 Will it be polyphonic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members eti Posted June 21, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 21, 2015 Will it be polyphonic? They say it will. I just wonder if it will meet everyone's definition of polyphonic. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members eti Posted June 26, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2015 If the filter is monophonic, I will be dissapoint. Judging by all the demos, it sounds like it might be. BOSS, c'mon! Just two notes played together starting at different times with clearly distinct filter sweeps is all I need to hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I don't know for certain (we still are waiting for the review units to ship) but I kind of doubt it's going to have multiple multimode filters, and the Boss SY-300 site really doesn't go into any specifics as far as I can see in terms of what filters it has in it. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members eti Posted June 26, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2015 Even lacking poly filtering it would still be pretty useful, and one heck of a pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members eti Posted June 27, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 27, 2015 Remember the Korg Poly 800? The Poly-800 is an eight-voice instrument (two more than the Juno series) with 64 memory patches (half of what the Juno-106 offered) and up to 50 editable parameters! Like the Juno, the Poly-800 had one DCO per voice, although it did feature a Double mode in which the oscillators could be stacked up for a fuller sound and only four voices of polyphony. The analog filter is a 24dB/oct low-pass which is shared by all voices (the Juno has separate filter chips for each voice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members eti Posted June 30, 2015 Author Members Share Posted June 30, 2015 Yep. Sounds like all notes are going through a single filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
