Tube Tonal Power for Your Rig or Desktop
Synergy Amplification's SYN1 single-module preamp places the true-tube tone of a cranked amplifier directly on your desktop. In conjunction with any one of Synergy's all-tube preamp modules, you'll take advantage of its Friedman-designed, cab-emulated XLR output, Fryette-engineered Sag control, and much more. And by utilizing the SYN1's effects loop and direct-to-amp outputs, it even makes a killer addition to your live amp rig, whether using it as your front end or adding two channels to the amp you already love and use. For such a compact device, the Synergy SYN1 is one of the most powerful pieces of tube gear you can own.

All-tube guitar tracking solution
Synergy's SYN1 preamp unleashes the power of the preamp module of your choice and sends it directly to your DAW with the finesse of a perfectly recorded tube amp. To ensure your playing experience exactly mimics a cranked amp, SYN1 utilizes a Fryette-designed (of Fryette and VHT amps) Sag control which dials in how responsive the unit is to your playing. And if you prefer the sound of your own impulse responses, simply bypass the SYN1's cabinet emulation and send a direct tone to your tracks.

The SYN1 preamp shines in the live arena as well. Around back, you'll find a bevy of I/O that allows you to insert the preamp into the series effects loop of your favorite amplifier. This opens up a world of switching options. First, you can plug straight into the SYN1 and bypass the amp's front end altogether. Or use the four-cable-method and you're able to add two footswitchable channels to your rig with ease. And the SYN1 even boasts its own transparent effects loop, so you're still able to get the most from your time-based effects when having the SYN1 in your amp's loop.
