I have been bumbed/annoyed since Synergy launched that they don't offer any type of module case. Here's a YouTube review by Henning Pauly of a USA made line of high quality hard cases, they have rails and threads like inserting into MTS am, available in 4 & 12 slot sizes, with a 4 slot rack...
There was some chatter in August on The Gear Page Synergy thread that some anonymous insider claimed that several new modules and "new hardware" are coming in "several months." Another used said that Dave Friedman put something on one of his Tone Talks that there was another Friedman module in...
Update at link below from Friedman about the fire - apparently they are moving to another facility. No timeframe.

There's an extensive thread about the fire on TGP, post from Avi at BAD on Friday with an update, closest to an "official" statement I've seen:

Just terrible news especially...
PSA for anyone using a 5-pin MIDI cable and external power and external power supply on a RM100 3 button MIDI footswitch (model RF3):
The RF3's 9-12 volt DC power input uses a less common connector, 5.5/2.5mm centre positive, same as Eventide pedals. If you happen to be using CIOKS or Eventide...
I've yet to see a modded Synergy module listed for sale online, maybe some are floating around & I've missed them. Hope you get into it again in a way that doesn't overly distract & adds something unique.
I posted a thread over in Modules few weeks ago trying to get people to weigh on what...
The "fizzle out" after working briefly sure points to some internal issue, the fact that you can switch the order to get same issue & use them independently without a problem has me baffled. I only have one SYN-2 and a SYN-1, never run them together (SYN-1 is in a practice rig in a different...
The fact that it initially worked fine and started to fade sounds like there's an internal issue with one of the SYN-2s, very weird, especially since they work OK separately. Do you have a separate power amp to connect just to rule that out? Other than that, I'd reach out to Synergy.
Also...
I Listened to your (short) clip a few times - assume the weird buzz at the end is what you are referring to, not immediately obvious to me what it could be. Do you have another module to test to try to narrow down the components? Alternately can you connect the syn-2 to a power amp or head with...
Very good points in post above, I failed to consider the power settings on the Mark V were channel specific and would impact level of the SYN-1 if set differently.
If you have properly connected using 4 cable method, there should be no difference in the level of the SYN-1 regardless of what channel is selected on the Mark V. 4CM totally bypasses the preamp on the head, goes directly into the power amp. Double check the cabling against the 4CM diagram in...
MIDI will not control the settings of the pots on the modules or the head of any of the MTS amps that have MIDI (Egnater, Randall, Synergy). It would require radically different design of the entire amplifier.
There's only a tiny handful of analog guitar amps (not modelers) that are completely...
