How to fix no sound or low volume on my Boss Synthesizer SY-1000?
- KKenneth ClarkJul 27, 2025
If you're not getting any sound or the volume is too low on your Boss Synthesizer SY-1000, here are some things to check: * Make sure the [OUTPUT LEVEL] knob isn't turned down all the way; adjust it as needed. * Ensure the GK pickup volume isn't too low; raise it to an appropriate level. * Verify the GK pickup select switch is set to “MIX,” not “GUITAR.” * Increase the PATCH LEVEL if it's too low. * Check all connections to the SY-1000 and other devices. * Confirm that the connected amp or mixer is powered on and the volume is at an audible level. * Try replacing the connecting cable to rule out any shorts. * If using USB, ensure the [SYSTEM] - USB AUDIO settings are correct and adjusted appropriately.
