WHAT IS SYOS?

THE GAME CHANGER

Syos stands for Shape Your Own Sound. The technology and the science behind our saxophone and clarinet mouthpieces come from years of research at IRCAM, the worldwide reference in terms of acoustics and sound technologies.

The meeting between Pauline, PhD in acoustics, and Maxime, PhD in auditory perception, started the creation and development of a new and original way of designing instruments.

Using proprietary material SCAL3D we craft mouthpieces with the highest degree of precision, with improved resistance and durability and the largest choice of chamber geometries, baffle types and colors on the market.

Syos mouthpieces are played by an ever-growing roster of international artists.

Easy to play and sounds persuasive

I am in love with the sound of Baba Tomoaki since I watched the movie Blue Giant.
Of course I knew that using the signature m.p. doesn’t give me the same sound with the artist. But this one from Syos let me sound so much closer.
Aside from that, my teacher told me that it sounded much better than my previous m.p. with some persuasiveness in sound.
As an amateur player, having a nice sound is a big plus to cover my lack of technique :)

Baba is Fab!

Love this new m.p.! I prefer a dark sound in most of my songs. The Baba can supply that dark sound with a smaller chamber which helps me control the feel better.

good mouthpiece

I really like the Blue Giant movie.
Therefore, I became interested in the mouthpiece of Mr. Baba, who was in charge of the performance.
When I actually tried it, it was very easy to play and I could feel the tone of the Blue Giant.
thank you.
