This sounds great! Please remember to be super careful with M/S though kids! A little goes a very long way. Its a great way to completely ruin your sound stage and destroy your mix, especially likely in a live setting in the sorts of venues you are talking about...Check the mix in mono at around 8:30-10:00 when you're pushing the width and hear what little is left of it. The reverb depth is completely trashed....that's what it will sounds like in a club with a mono rig :|
Sounds pretty good! I'd have loved an rms gain matched comparison, though. When you bypass it, the dry sound is too quiet to really be able to judge the difference. It might have similar peak levels, but RMS sounds way lower bypassed.
Thanks for this tutorial. I invested as in the GM as an experiment …part of guitar digital modelling rig I use with digital drums and outboard pedals, mostly complex time based effects. first few hours i really had to listen with side chain and multi band knowledge being fairly limited as I guess it might be for most string players. Now my ears have adjusted to the new depths and widths available.. I’ve realised it might well be the most dynamic effect I own. Just brilliant for guitarists looking for more width and depth around there core signals. Really a golden master.
at 11:20 yes its crazy but also could be a bit better level matched 😉 Also i noticed that when you said "might be to much" and a-b again how much of the spacial dimension is getting lost when engaging all the "clarity" and high end hype. Its always a double edged sword. The darker edit "pulls you in" more driven by curiosity while the processed version is more something you could let play in the backround and never have the feeling you missed any subtlety if that makes sense that said , thank you too much for the video. Looks like an amazing pedal. Wish they bring out a version with some additions in the future . Like saturation and maybe a bit more control for the compression (att-rel). Do you have any other similar pedals in mind? The only things i know that are "similar" are analog heat and oto boum.
I know that Pulsar 23 is capable of some quite extreme distortion, it would be interesting to hear some of that go through the Golden Master and hear how it handles it
such a great in depth video, I think I need this in my DAWless setup, I love the hands on control and LED VU metering, I wish it had a double VU metering, audio in and and audio out, like my analog Heat has
Definitely getting this pedal, thanks for the in depth demo! I would love a workflow demo of the Cirklon if you're looking for content ideas. I'm using the Vector12 right now which I love but Cirklon seems similar with 16 steps at a time instead of 8
mmm not sure, at first I thought whoaaa , but then i realised that at home you can easily master in the box, and live, you don't really need stereo and not handy that you can't see the settings of the knobs when changing modes.also most mixers already have an eq.

Yeah don't destroy the centre image.
Thanks probably why I sold my last comp pedal didn't know what I was doing.. 😅
13 minutes in and I’m thinking, “this thing would be perfect if it had a limiter.” 2 minutes later, “It has a limiter!” ❤

That’s great to hear! Thanks for watching!
Only thing I wish this additionally had was saturation/overdrive
would be nice to hear ab with volume mach
If only it had a headphone output..... seems ace otherwise
Had the uva Compressor sold it this looks way better thanks
is anyone having problems with this pedal where there's no led lights and sound only passing through in bypass? Also can't update the firmware?
Try a different power supply- my unit doesn’t like my Strymon PSU and won’t properly boot when using it, but it likes a standard wall wart just fine.
Great info. Most of the small venues don't accommodate for stereo. Could still benefit from these techniques.
Absolutely perfect.
Beautiful demonstration and wonderful music.
Loved it!
You are also doing great!
Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Great demo, thank you! What do you think, is this better, than OTO Boum, or RNLA 7239?
Not better, just different! All great tools.
This review convinced me to get one! Best walk through vid I’ve seen!

Great Video! I have needed a fix like this, for my Live/Recording of Modular Synthesizer /Pedal rig.
such a great in depth video, I think I need this in my DAWless setup, I love the hands on control and LED VU metering, I wish it had a double VU metering, audio in and and audio out, like my analog Heat has
Loudness and decibel outcome would be interesting
Nice video Matt…mine is on the way. I love the pedal format vs the small module (even though I loved the module).
excited about this pedal! Even more excited that you're doing a demo!
its just not the best way to test it with so much treble. sure it sounds much better at first listen.
Thanks for the great walkthrough

I’ll probably do something once I wrap my head around it a little more. It’s deep!
@@mattlowerymusic thank you! You like it though?
This is perfection

The super high kick attack snaps are awful.
