Imagine packing a massive collection of boutique amps into one sleek rack unit — that's the magic of the Synergy SYN-2.
This versatile preamp houses two swappable, all-tube modules, letting you change legendary tones in an instant. It’s a personal tone vault, giving you direct access to the sound, feel, and harmonic richness of world-class amplifiers without the back-breaking weight.
Studio-Grade Sound, Straight to the Board
Capturing roaring tube tones used to require a soundproof room, an expensive microphone, and endless patience. The SYN 2 bypasses the headache entirely, sending your 12AX7-driven tone straight to a recording console or front-of-house PA with breathtaking realism. You get all the sag, chew, and punch of a cranked amp, delivered quietly and consistently right to the mixing desk.
Studio-Quality Cabinet Simulation: The balanced XLR output provides a pristine, studio-quality cab sim, ensuring your live or recorded sound is massive and mix-ready right out of the box.
Fryette Sag Control: Dial in the feel of a hard-working power amp. This licensed, front-mounted control replicates the dynamic compression and spongy response of a real tube power section.
Total Output Control: An integrated ground lift keeps your signal quiet, while a bypass switch lets you send the raw tube signal to your favorite digital impulse responses.
An Instant Upgrade for Your Current Rig
Love the raw volume of your current combo but find the preamp tone totally uninspiring? The SYN 2 lets you hijack your existing amplifier and inject it with premium boutique tube tone. Simply patch this unit into your amp’s effects loop return, and you bypass the factory tone stack entirely, giving complete tonal command to the Synergy modules of your choice.
Swap Sounds in Seconds: Install modules from legendary amp makers like Friedman, Diezel, and Morgan to instantly upgrade your rig.
Tour-Ready Tone: Don't gamble on questionable rental gear. Plug the SYN 2 into any provided backline's effects loop, and your signature sound is ready to rock.
Authentic Tube Power: Forget sterile digital emulations. This is pure, unadulterated tube tone, pushed through genuine preamp tubes for authentic harmonic saturation.
Expand Your Sonic Arsenal
Sometimes you don't want to replace your amp's character; you just want to multiply the madness. By wiring the SYN 2 into your amp’s series effects loop using the straightforward 3-cable method, you seamlessly add four totally new footswitchable channels to your existing setup. Go from your amp's chiming cleans to a module's face-melting high gain with a single stomp.
Seamless Integration: Keep your original amplifier’s beloved tone completely intact while instantly expanding your switching capabilities with up to four additional all-tube channels.
Onboard Effects Loop: Run your favorite delays, reverbs, and modulation pedals exactly where they belong — right after the preamp section for optimal clarity and spaciousness.
MIDI Mastery: Take total command of your sprawling new rig. The SYN 2 is fully MIDI capable, letting you sync complicated patch changes with your favorite programmable controllers.
The Authenticity of Tube Tone
The Synergy SYN 2 Rack Mount Preamp bridges the gap between modern routing convenience and old-school analog authenticity. It’s a brilliant, modular solution for gigging and recording guitarists who absolutely refuse to compromise on their tone. Grab your favorite modules, plug in, and let the tubes do the talking.

AMS is the most professional comp...
