“The first thing that drew me to SYOS was their adaptability and customisation. Being able to hear a sound in your head, work with the team to specify what it was you were hearing and then create that is a revelation! As woodwind players we are constantly working on our tone, sound and power to achieve uniqueness, SYOS makes that infinitely more possible to attain. You’ll love it!”
