The Human Comparator – creators of the the Two Thousand Six Hundred (TTSH) ARP 2600 clone – have announced a new synth DIY project, the Syncussion SY-1 Percussion Synthesizer.
You can get a sneak preview of the Syncussion SY-1 in the video above.
- The Syncussion SY-1 kit is expected to be available Summer 2016.
- The kit will include PCBs, potentiometers and a steel case.
- Target price is about US $250.
- Additional components should be about $100 from Mouser.
Additional details on the Syncussion SY-1 are to be announced.
Check out the sneak preview and let us know what you think of it!
THC clearly has a gift for this kind of thing. $350 sure buys you a lot of fun. I mean, look at that thing!!
woow just wow
How much for the Buchla modules to go with it? ????
“Another analog percussion synth? No thanks, I already have enough of those!” said no one ever… Want!
I like everything about it except the name SY-1, just because that was a Yamaha synth. Also curious about the mentioned-but-not-shown steel case.
It is a clone of the SY-1…

I think SY-1 refers to the original Pearl Syncussion SY-1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hlz5uRdP8N4
It’s a clone of a Syncussion SY-1, hence the name – SY-1. How can you dislike it for using the correct name?
Thanks, y’all, I withdrawal my criticism of THC taking the name from Yamaha. Now I’m surprised Pearl got away with it.
Sounds great!
sounds like a synare clone to me.
and also my ears wanna sue you for 00:47 🙂
Count me in for 1-2 Units! Are you willing to offer full build Syncussions? In the unit i 1v/oct of tuning like in the original SY-1?
the original is not 1v/oct at all
no. correct . .. but does this one have the tune input like the original ?? the original with insert cable plugged in you can tune the sy1 with CV ..
How can anyone pay attention to the drums, THAT SEQ!
Pretty sure that’s just a CGS Gated Comparator type circuit.
Pretty stoked for this to come out. Glad I sold one of my syncussions recently.. Noe I can fund 5 new ones 😀
i’d buy one!
where can i buy or make a reservation?
for us non DIY types will there be a retail version?
there are the SY-1Kit to buy already in America
