Behringer Syncussion SY-1 Dual-channel Analog Percussion Synthesizer

From Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark and Images in Vogue to Kraftwerk and Herbie Hancock, an iconic 1970s drum machine became the cornerstone of an immense constellation of synth-fueled pop, rock, dance, and electronic works that continue to influence music today. Behringer’s Syncussion SY-1 reimagines that hallmark piece of gear for the modern producer’s workflow while meticulously capturing and preserving its analog circuitry, much to the delight of Music Bliss synthesists. Its dual-channel architecture utilizes a pair of analog VCOs, each comprising six individually selectable oscillator modes. Both channels are outfitted with dedicated suites of LFO, Sample & Hold, envelope decay, width, and tuning controls, seamlessly navigated through its straightforward interface brimming with '70s-esque aesthetics. Its enhanced connectivity options span class-compliant USB 2.0 Type-B and 5-pin MIDI in and Thru connectors, and its removable housing allows you to utilize the Syncussion SY-1 in your Eurorack setup. No matter your production or performance preferences, the Syncussion SY-1 will seamlessly integrate and supplement your sound with flourishes of 1970s-flavored analog percussion.
