Strymon is basically creating a studio for the masses. With a chain using their iridium/flint/compadre/deco, youll get some of the best recordings

[@loopie007]

I'm saving up for their "Talent" pedal.

[@wormeister]

@@loopie007 I'd pay big money for that too 😂

[@gabrielledebourg2487]

Great combo; I love throwing in compression before a boost/cleaner overdrive, because it allows for way less gain, as you both get the sustain from the compression, but also does a great job of adding the compression you’d get from an amp that’s breaking up. Plus it helps to avoid having a super loud boost. And this pedal really sounds great! Great demo as always.

[@venicelake]

The last 20 seconds with the expression pedal sold me on this, it should be the opener before the bass. What a clean, complete, compact front end- compression, boost, volume, midi- that last harmonic chord- you nailed it.

[@KrisCadwell]

I always enjoy it when you play some Radiohead.

[@redielg]

God damn I love it when he plays Radiohead in his demos.

[@logicsoundinc]

I really like my Compadre pedal! I'm slowly turning into a Strymon geek.

[@Wolkenkeller]

Thank you, Andy. I just spent around 300 bucks.

[@paulrenevos]

his foot control is flawless, bam! compressor set to 75% exactly in one go without fail, lol

[@mytone100]

Definitely the most versatile compressor I've seen and sound great as well.

[@r3dr43]

I love strymon stuff but it’s sometimes to expensive for my wallet......BUT I’m highly considering this beast of a utility box, great job Andy

[@ernestbuckley8671]

When you consider the sound quality, the build, and that most of their boxes do more than one thing, its actually a fair price.

[@DiogoAlmeidaCosta]

If you want a cheaper alternative with a very decent cost/feaures ratio I would recommend you the TC Electronic Forcefield Compressor. They also make a Boost pedal in the same range, but I have no experience with it.

[@gixxerjo]

You need a second job and refinance your home. 😏

[@dust2star]

Good to see Andy
Fantastic demo and as usual nice playing!

[@mrfrontranger7911]

Andy having some fun .Hats off to Nikhuberguitars for a very cool guitar

[@harrisbeatsfrankou6304]

brilliant as usual.
You've got me set on this now.

[@groovyhippie1165]

Hell yes, some Radiohead! Great video!

[@MarioZero]

I love when gringos say compadre. Cool pedal and demo

[@ericlafoudrenoire1113]

Bravo Andy ! You’re a master. Best regards from France.

[@middle_pickup]

Great performance on "Just."

[@MC-wh3xm]

smoooooooth playing

[@mwicks1968]

Great demo, great pedal but the PRICE!?! And yes, what is that red t-style guitar? WANT!!!

[@kolombijec]

now this was a realy nice video...loved it...but first, riverside.. ;)

[@RockWeller]

This sounds good!

[@nilsx3020]

When I hear Strymon puts out a new pedal, I immediately get curious and induces GAS. However, as great as these might be for some, the Iridium and Compadre don't do that to me as I use tube amps and don't use compression. But I guess what else is there for Strymon? What do you guys want to see from them? Maybe an amp in a box style pedal?

[@rickya3877]

Or AMPS in a box...would be cool to access Plexi,Fender,Vox,Dumble,Trainwreck,Two Rock,etc tones all from one pedal

[@curtislynch8189]

Isn’t that what Line 6 has been doing for 20 years?

[@rickya3877]

@@curtislynch8189 sure,but they sound (and feel) awful

[@mdmusic2130]

I use the Strymon Compadre in my tube Fender Hot Rod Deluxe V3 amp and it’s sounds absolutely fantastic!!!

[@mikeroadblock]

Where the boost? Before or after? Please and thank you.

[@reddsflies]

Anything pedal wise you can compare the dirty sound to

[@jamesphillips2952]

Another Strymon pedal thats sure to be nearly the price of a new car

[@lt-yx1hx]

You must be buying a really shitty car, then. This is one of their cheaper pedals.
I get that $300 dollars isn't exactly cheap, but for a high-quality, handcrafted pedal that combines both a compressor AND a boost, then $300 is a steal.

Who is the maker of the orange guitar towards the end of the video

[@JF-em6hr]

What is that orange guitar? Kinda looks in between a les paul and a tele.

[@TheMrCull]

What bass is that? Super cool!

[@eDWICHt]

It's an Ibanez Blazer. 80's I believe.

[@davim.6073]

What was the bass that Andy used in the beginning?

[@AndyDemos]

Davi Morimoto It’s an 80s Ibanez Blazer, I use it quite a bit for backing tracks!

[@lost_valley]

Compadre means ‘buddy’ for those who wanna expand spanish vocabulary

[@Tull1996]

I like watching these videos, simply for his playing, but he could plug into a potato and make me think it's worth $299.99....so it really doesn't help me to choose a particular pedal.

[@david_4246]

Over 300 bucks

[@eddiegalon3714]

Ok great now I gotta learn some more Radiohead
