So I have to turn both off to sync music from iTunes to my phone?


No, only the iPhone. The path is Settings > Music > Sync Library > Off. That said if you're paying for Apple Music you would normally enable Sync Library in both iTunes and your iPhone so that changes made in either library sync automatically over the air and you have access to all the Apple Music content from either device. Apple Music content cannot be synced over wire and must be downloaded directly from the store by the device.
