A Mastering Toolbox for Your Sounds & Music // Golden Master Pedal from Endorphines

The idea of some live mix polish, simple hardware mastering for modular/dawless/live set ups or simple a characterful parallel processor and DI box is certainly an exciting one. The Golden Master from Endorphines builds on inspiration from classic ‘90s mastering rack units and their experiences with live performances with synths & modular and puts together a box of multi band compression, EQ and multi band stereo mid/side based stereo enhancement. This pedal version offers presets, sidechain or expression pedal inputs, stereo ins and outs, per band mutes (handy for setting up each band but also as a performative frequency dependent set of mutes!) and parallel processing (i.e. dry/wet mixing) options. Info, manual etc // https://www.endorphin.es/modules/p/golden-master-pedal This is the first fulsome PEDALS & PATCHES video. A new series where I explore FX pedals in the context of synths and electronic music alongside other instruments and wider studio/production contexts. Guitar pedals were the first bit of gear to really catch my eye many moons ago so I’m looking forward to exploring them in a creative way and sharing that with you.

I did experience some noise with the device on older firmware but the latest firmware has improved that drastically. The new firmware reduced the noise that can be apparent in some situations and also lowered the compression make up gain. I just wanted to add clarity to that to ensure you’re listening to and experiencing the same things if you have a Golden Master. The latest firmware is here // https://www.endorphin.es/modules/p/golden-master-pedal TIMING INDEX // CHAPTERS 00:00 Hello & patch previews 01:01 What is the Golden Master? + What are we doing here? 02:05 Feature run down 04:26 Live mastering for modular synths or other hardware set ups and mixes 05:22 Live mastering - Mid/Side stereo enhancement 06:25 Live mastering - Multiband compression 08:01 Live mastering - EQ 08:28 Expression pedal control while enhancing pedal board FX chains [watch out for slipper cam!] 11:09 A parallel character processor & DI for bass guitar 13:00 Earbreak - slamming crunchy beats with a Pocket Operator 13:25 Mastering full mixes with a DAW based hip hop track 16:08 Enhancing analogue synths & FX 17:43 Earbreak - fatter 808 beats 18:06 Spanky guitar sparkle - from subtle control to character 19:31 Multiband ducking side chains 22:02 A note of firmware & noise ** THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY ENDORPHINES ** they have funded this demo/tutorial video.
