We recently reviewed the Moog Matriarch for Sonic LAB - the semi-modular four oscillator paraphonic synthesizer with stereo filter and delay. Modular specialist Edd Butterworth also got his hands on it and explored the patching concepts made possible by the inclusion of the 3 attenuverters. Often in semi-modular synths, these are overlooked, but can often unlock more complex and creative techniques for the synthesist.
The patching that they allow opens up the power of modular synthesise and are used by Edd to introduce some interesting patching concepts that can be used in any synthesis environment.

please do more on the matriarch!

@ernestbuckley8671 3 года назад

Just got the Matriarch a few days ago and was really struggling to reign it in but this video and some others have really helped me tame this beautiful beast. I have a feeling I’ll be discovering this instruments secrets for years to come. I think Bob Moog would be well pleased with this synth.

@martinvegas1327 4 года назад

Matriarch is nice sounding!

@alexmoll723 4 года назад

Edd is the greatest of all time - thank you for this masterclass

@vanislesam Год назад

Just got mine a couple days ago. This synth is something special and I’m never going to sell it especially after the moog sell off recently. This will be a future classic.

@makes_synth_to_me9025 4 года назад

Love the sounds coming out of the Matriarch. Def one of the most interesting synths available atm..

@jamesmeeker6933 4 года назад

It's pretty much a 1960s Moog Modular shrunk down into a single package. I have the Grandmother (that I support with 9U of Eurorack for more filters, oscillators, etc.); it is an excellent synth. The Matriarch builds on that to make something really nuts.

@ChillMode34 4 года назад

Yea, it’s a deep dive man. A true fucking journey. Not meant for anyone who isn’t willing to learn and explore mid workflow.

@d3maccus Год назад

this is kinda brutal following this with the camera angle cutting off the top of the patch cables so we can't follow the cable from exit to entry.

@d3maccus Год назад

but FANTASTIC patching and sounds

@marcschaffroth3448 4 года назад

Great sounding matriarch patches! Excellent!!! Some patch sheets would be very helpful - thank you!

@mackmccord3743 3 года назад

Just screen shot and redo it when he reaches a sound you love...

@Individual_two 4 года назад

Good demo! Another neat trick is taking advantage of using an expression pedal to control things like filter cutoff, LFO rates, attenuator rates, delay rates, etc. The Matriarch is an electronic music playground!

@chitlun 3 года назад

I can’t wait to get one. I’m then going to plug my guitar into it and make the world’s most expensive wah-wah pedal!

@ernestbuckley8671 3 года назад

@@chitlun Yeah, I’m definitely plugging my guitars into the M! 😂😂

@AutisticCuriosity 3 года назад

This video would’ve been so much more useful if At the startyou saw the rest of the settings on the screen so we could follow along

@michaelmalodrums9674 4 года назад

Great video ! If anyone that owns a matriarch or just interested in it please come join our Facebook group called “ Moog Matriarch Family “. All welcome 🙏🏻

@morgendorffer3504 4 года назад

oh hey, this is just me scrolling down to see if anyone has made any puns about Edd Butterworth's butterworthy buttery sounds. love them

@blipblip88 4 года назад

mmm.. yes

@Dudderlyful 3 года назад

No butterier butterworthiness could ever be found better

@samuelc.reyesjr9684 4 года назад

Beautifully done. A real knowledge of voltages and how to control them. I think most would never have considered using the attenuators as such.

@Elgusto82 4 года назад

This is great. Should do some patch sheets and more vids on the matriarch!

@Pharmacymusic1 3 года назад

Amazing video, please do more Matriarch patching! Just one thing though, it was frustrating trying to follow where each cable was going and I needed to follow the video a few times and made mistakes. It would help so much if we could watch you creating the patch from scratch or if a patch diagram was included.

@sonicstate 3 года назад

Noted!

@martincarbow5491 6 месяцев назад

Seconded!

@bigmanlizard7326 4 года назад

this guy is amazing, perfect voice for presenting something like this too

@miket7281 2 года назад

Not a Synth head but love playing them and for anyone wondering how it is without any modulation? its great as just a 4 osc synth with an an amazing delay and beautiful sound. I might try to get into the patching a bit more, I do use an expression pedal into the filter which I love but all the rest is Greek to me. Anyway by far the finest synth I've owned. Unless of course they release a simple 4osc mono version with the Delay and Spring reverb with no patch's and built in velocity and aftertouch. Dream Synth for sure.

@earlsfield Год назад

This is very nice demonstration of the fm/rm/am patches. Now, it is important to notice smt - if you for any reason change keyboard voltage output from default +-5 to 0-10 (velocity, aftertouch, mod wheel), it might not play your filter tracking correctly - for instance, if your velocity output is 0-10 velocity effect will be almost none (softest touch will be the same as the hardest one). I was tracking filter as in the last patch and noticed that tracking doesnt work under certain C with 0-10V of keyboard output. Also, play with round robin mode, see how it can lead to different results. Mix in the external modular gear if you have some, even if its the smallest system, opens a world of possibilities. But also note that some modules will require higher voltage (and I am looking at you, Doepfer). My point - do not mess with CV values if you don't have external gear, leave them as default. Matriarch is one of the most beautiful instruments I've ever had in my 30 years of dealing with electronic music.

@serdjios 3 месяца назад

Thank you very much! The patch and music since 19:20 with drums is only Moog or drums is another device playing?

@markjeghers4408 2 года назад

Patch diagram PDFs please??? These are so cool, but diagrams would make it so much easier! Either way, great job.

@triplebeam23 Год назад

So ive got 2 questions .. the 4 utilities at the top can be inputs or outputs correct? And my 2nd question is whats the differences between cv IN and the normal Input?

@christoroppolo8742 2 года назад

Your great delivery makes these exactly what is needed at the pace it should be shared with to convey big concepts easily. That’s a major gift . 👽🙏

@chromaflow9313 5 месяцев назад

Wonderful sounds and lighting… thanks for the great video

@RichardAmesMusic 7 месяцев назад

I think your synchs aren’t working - they cascade from left to right. So any light not on indicates neither that one nor the ones to the right are synched. So all your patches where Osc 2 is not synched have none synched even though the lights of 3 and 4 might be on.

@molotulo8808 6 месяцев назад

That's what I figured. In a video I made about the attenuators I admit that I haven't got a clue. Your right, the sound starts on the left and works it way to the right. So when I run a wire, I have my output on the right side and my input on the left, but I still can't anticipate the results.

@chitlun 3 года назад

My bank account wishes I’d never seen this. Tremendous tutorial man, more of this please. Peace ✌️

@IAmSonnemm 3 года назад

I feel u bro u.u

@emilyschmanks 4 года назад

makes me wish the grandmother's attenuator was voltage controlled as well. i have some in my eurorack that's always hooked up to the GM, but it would still be nice to have an extra vca built in.

@istefk 3 года назад

awesome, one of the best demo/tutorials I've seen on the !M

@karlrijkse5430 3 года назад

Would be nice if you have the patch sheets available

@jayjones2821 2 года назад

that thing he does with his finger on a knob that he copied from the dweeb at elektron to try to look like an artist is incredibly annoying. Just grab the farkin knob and turn it, genius

@molotulo8808 6 месяцев назад

Again, thank you. This guy is just saying a bunch of gobbledygook with no meaning. He sure does sound smart. This video is meaningless. It's in the comments where I actually learn something.

@snardash_1197 3 года назад

God damnit I want this synth.

@Whiskel 4 года назад

Do you say Butterworth with no T's?

@eddbutterworth5377 4 года назад

yes, although I think my mum would disapprove...

@AriMusik 3 года назад

I really have issues to understand words with T spoken without T. I really don't know what an inpu is. Or attanuaer. Sorry but it's hard for me to listen to it. But the optical video quality is very good. :) Other speaker next time please.

@JonManness 3 года назад

You're a wizard! Really impressive sounds! I'll probably need to rewatch several times but it's great demo on patching.

@bizarreleidenschaft-official 4 года назад

top video -- please more

@smalltown4855 2 года назад

what would happen if you covered the synth in treacle and then sprinkled grated peanuts before emptying a hoover bag on it?

@GovernorSilver 3 года назад

Thank you for uploading this. Question about the patch starting around 17:00 - Where are the Wave Outs of Oscillators 3 and 4 connected? What is plugged into the input of the upper Attenuator of the Utilities module next to the Modulation module?

@neuron05 4 года назад

Great video, keep em coming. This synth together with a Eurorack case is heaven.

@ObKling 4 года назад

I think this is my long-term game plan.

@Garflips 2 года назад

I could see a lot of conversation on what would be an ultimate cost effective companion set of modules in one rack sitting above the Matriarch.

@brendankoen 4 года назад

Serious ASMR vibes. I won’t complain if you make more on the Matriarch. Just saying 😎

@barrnycharlton8951 3 года назад

in the matriarch the attenuators are also vcas. In the same way LfO1 is actually a converted Osc

@sashaatree6535 3 года назад

is it possible to connect moog matriarch to ipad to play midi on the moog?

@Trk-El-Son 2 года назад

Yes.

@molotulo8808 6 месяцев назад

What do you mean. I use to have a computer with midi in, thru, and out, but I couldn't effect my keyboard with the computer. That was 20 years ago. My wife thru out my computer at a recycling facility without keeping the midi hardware. I wanted to break her neck. She said I wasn't using it so she figured out it was junk. She is an idiot. I told her never to touch me equipment again.

@Towy2012 4 года назад

It is very nice to listen to but I can't repeat it on my matriarch because I cannot follow your patches. Sorry - bad explanation in my eyes. I hoped for more which could give me a better understanding.

@molotulo8808 6 месяцев назад

6:28 Thank you. He isn't showing where some wires output comes from. I made a video on my Matriarch attenuators and I basically can't just make a patch for a violin sound. You can draw a patch on the diagrams, but when you, at a later time, follow the diagram, the patch doesn't sound the same. So in my videos I admit that I haven't a clue how a patch effect will resault. It's like the movie A Nightmare Before Christmas where Jack Skelington is trying to figure out what Christmas means, so he does all these experiments, gets frustrated and bangs his head.
