BASS SYNTHESIZER BSY600

Ultimate Bass Synthesizer Effects Pedal

Thank you for showing your confidence in us by purchasing the BEHRINGER BASS SYNTHESIZER BSY600. 

This high-quality effects pedal reproduces the fat and powerful sound of classic analog synthesizers—

at the touch of a footswitch.

1.  Controls

(1) 

The DIRECT control adjusts the level of the 

direct, unaffected signal.

(2) 

The EFFECT control adjusts the level of the 

synthesizer effect signal.

(3) 

The RES(onance) control adjusts the 

strength of the low-pass filter frequency 

peak (see below).

(4) 

The FREQ(uency) control adjusts the 

low-pass/al pass filter frequency which 

cuts the high-frequencies and therefore 

determines the upper and lower limit of the 

frequency range the filter moves along.

(5) 

The DECAY/RATE control has 2 different 

functions. Depending on the MODE switch 

position (see below) it adjusts either the 

LFO speed that modulates the amplitude 

of the filter frequency (RATE: mode 3 and 

6 only) or sets the time over which the filter 

frequency moves (DECAY). When the decay time is set to MAX, the cut-off filter frequency is fixed.

(6) 

Use the MODE switch to dial up one of 11 synthesizer modes with 4 different waveforms.
1.  SAW (sawtooth wave that produces sharp-edged sound)
2.  SAW (sawtooth wave one octave lower than mode 1)
3.  SAW (sawtooth wave with automatic filter frequency shifting)
4.  SQUARE (square wave that produces milder sound than the sawtooth modes)
5.  SQUARE (similar to mode 4 with additional square wave one octave below)
6.  SQUARE (square wave with automatic filter frequency shifting)
7.  PULSE (pulse wave that produces sharp-edged sound different from sawtooth modes)
8.  PULSE (pulse wave with al -pass filter for more depth and motion)
9.  PULSE (pulse wave with pulse width modulation for fat, spre ading sound)
10.  WAVE (input signal is directly transformed to a synthesizer sound. Filter rises when string is 

played and returns gradual y)

11.  WAVE (similar to mode 10, but filter drops when string is played and returns gradual y)

(7) 

The ON/BATT LED il uminates when the effect is activated and flashes when the PITCH HOLD 

function is active (see below). It also serves as a battery level indicator.

(8) 

Use the footswitch to activate/deactivate the effect. Keeping the footswitch depressed will 

activate the PITCH HOLD function (modes 1 - 9 only) that causes the unit to output the effect 

signal continuously, even if the bass is not played at this moment (ON/BATT LED flashes). You can 

also play the bass while keeping the footswitch pressed and mix the continuously output effect 

signal with the direct bass signal. Release the footswitch to deactivate this function.

(9) 

Use this 1/4" TS IN connector to plug in the instrument cable.

(10) 

The two 1/4" TS OUT and DIR OUT connectors send the signal to your amp. Use both connectors if 

you want to separate the unprocessed input signal (> DIR OUT) and the synthesized signal (> OUT). 

To mix both signals together use OUT only.
