@@Gjallarhorn84 I own a Dark Matriarch by choice - but I totally get the harlequin model as a tip of the hat to The Source. I own a Source as well so you'd think I would have bought one of those to kind of match my Source (autographed by Keith Emerson by the way!). But, I found a fantastic deal on the Matriarch Dark and I must say its a fantastic one of a kind synth in its own right.A Grandmother Dark paired with it would be awesome as well I agree though.

Wow. I got a dark edition Matriarch a couple years ago and I agree with everything you say. It just sounds amazing, it’s a huge sweet spot synth, the filters and that incredible analog stereo delay alone makes it worth the price. The paraphony and patching are just the icing on the cake. If the new poly sounds as good as this it’ll be amazing. The arpeggiator has a cool feature too. If you engage hold, you can keep adding notes to the arp as long as you hold a key down as you play more notes. You can even add the same note multiple times, so it’s like an on-the-fly sequencer. After releasing all keys, the next key you hit will clear the arp and you can start over.

The Matriarch is definitely my favorite Moog in my collection. I feel like I could just sit and mess with it and the DFAM alone and create the basis for tons of tracks. Definitely the most fun I can have with the least gear is in those two pieces and they absolutely prevent me from getting lost in preset surfing. It definitely has a sound that is more core to my sensibilities out of all my synths and plugins.

I totally agree with your thoughts on the delay. It really is part of the whole instrument for the Matriarch. While I don’t think the Matrixbrute effects are as beautiful as what’s on offer with the Matriarch, I agree that I prefer one or two well thought out effects that can become part of the character of the synth. And as you mentioned earlier, it really is all about that character!

Great re-review! Totally agree about the subpar digital effects in some synths. I love my take 5, but the effects are very underwhelming. The delays are great, but the chorus and reverb (the most important two for me!) have very little character. Like you suggest, I would have settled for a synth with fewer effects, but higher quality ones!
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial 5 месяцев назад
Thank you! Yep lol - Sequential are the biggest offenders of this (and they are my fave synth company). They make these glorious analog synths, then the DSP effects like their reverbs sound worse than many free plugins. Imagine a new Prophet with a built in BBD delay like this!

Nice one Miles. Tempted by a Matriarch. I love the Summit for Techno, the UDO Super 6 for pads (which are the best I've heard), Elektron boxes 'cos they are ace for performance, but for a mono I do like Moog. The only downside is the hidden config parameters, which drove me nuts on the Sirin and there's even more on the Matriarch.

Also shit nowadays just needs some sort of patch memory. It's all very well sounding sweet until you can't recall your awesome settings for a particular track within 5 minutes. Sometimes people who are paying you don't get that. For such a beautiful sounding synth we need to bring back them beautiful sounds. I definitely do because I want them all to be stored in the dark vault of joy! I want to recall them whenever I like and I don't want them to exist only for a moment where they are abused for a disgusting dance track!

Hey now you need the Moog Mirror 8 voice which claims to use the Matriarch sound, it was seen on the Super Bowl halftime show.

Thanks! It’s really simple actually, just follow the patching tip 1 delay modulation section of this video. Then for the oscillators, have 3 of them at ‘16, and the last one an octave up at ‘8 to create occasional octave jumps. Filter should slowly open with envelope. Hope that helps!

I am in the market for a Matriarch and I've just watched yours back to back with Jorb's, and I have to say you really do know how to get the best out of a synth (one of your 3rd wave videos comes to mind here too). Thanks for the tips re electronic dance music (which is my main focus), and just to offer an alternative view, I can see this very much working in a dance track, just not a mainstream one. I'm thinking of deep melodic house with quite sparse arrangements where the Matriarch takes centre stage on the melodic parts. Oh the GAS never stops does it :) One last thing, I really like long form videos on synths... for instance sound design, the nooks and crannies a particular synth can take you down and so on, so thank you for this one Miles, and I'm personally up for you doing more of these types of videos.

Miles I have a question. I have the Grandmother and love it, but I’m considering the Matriarch or the Prophet 6 desktop. Is it possible to get close to the cinematic pad sound you get at 18:13 with the P6? Need your opinion on if you had to pick one over the other which you would go with?
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial 4 месяца назад
Tough question. You aren't gonna really get that exact sound, because the P6 can't work duophonically, and also the Matriarch analog delay sounds just way better than the P6 delay. But you can get pretty similar nice pad sounds with the P6 distortion going into a good delay pedal. At the end of the day, P6 is way more versatile and all around useful, but the Matriarch sounds much more distinct and unique!

For effects like Analog delay, Nice reverbs and my all time favourite effect is Tape Echo, an amazing beautiful effect with so much character, colour, movement with so many possibilities for me is the most creative effect I use. Agreed digital built in synth FX can and usually sound pretty poor. I love music production, electronic music synths, analog etc, but I am primarily a guitarist, so using guitar fx, analog delay, tape echo etc, pedals work great on synths, so many different brands and types of guitar fx pedals out there, some great ones at very low prices to more expensive that do more, it’s an unbelievable world for FX at great prices. People may think you can’t or shouldn’t use guitar fx on a synth, which is so untrue, they work exactly the same and sound so much better than synth digital built in FX, and are a damn sight cheaper. It’s manufacturers and brands that market their gear saying it’s a guitar effect or bass guitar effect, to make more sales and money and so many people fall for it, a guitar effect pedal will work just as well if put on a guitar, bass guitar, vocal, synth, drums etc. good video and obviously the matriarch sounds lovely and would be so beneficial to my gear studio collection and would add so much to anybody creative music making. Thanks for your insight into the matriarch and have fun creating with it. Cheers all the best Steve, Manchester, England.

I bought the Matriarch shortly after it was released. Since then this synth stole my heart. It is a sonic playground and a serious instrument. I play live with the Matriarch and a Hydrasynth and they complement each other beautifully. As for presets, I didn't miss 'em. However, this synth is not for everybody and it has its quirks (e.g. important patch points hidden on the back panel). I hope InMusic keeps making and support it.

I don't get the stereo filter on bass, sounds out of phase and is wandering around when adjusting resonance or cutoff? This really prevents me from getting a Matriarch, I would rage too often when having to deal with that.
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial 4 месяца назад
If you keep the knob in the centre, you get basically a mono filter. Also, the stereo bass sounds collapse properly to mono, I checked that right away! No phasing.
@primewavesmusic
@primewavesmusic 5 месяцев назад
Does "time 1" only modulate the one delay time (as opposed to both since it's stereo)? Taken at face value, it should. But other similar patch points on the matriarch, notably filter cutoff 1, if you only patch something into it, it will actually affect BOTH 1 and 2. Which I actually like (otherwise you'd need double cables every time you wanted a simple, non-stereo specific modification). Anyways, I'd be surprised if time 1 on the delay worked differently. EDIT: ok, I went and looked it up in the manual, and it looks like it does behave differently. I guess it's just one of those "gotchas" you have to know. So: - filter cutoff 1 alone will affect both 1 and 2. - filter cutoff 2 alone will just affect 2. but - delay time 1 just affects 1.
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial 5 месяцев назад
Yep exactly! That's why its my fave sneaky patch tip. The sound of one delay line being modulated while the other is static creates this super interesting chorus-y style analog modulation I haven't been able to get elsewhere (besides the Walrus Meraki)!

So I'm confused about the linear FM patch point above the oscillators, what exactly goes into it?
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial 5 месяцев назад
Try patching one of the other oscillator WAVE OUT into an attenuator, then that attenuated signal into the linear FM in of a different oscillator that is muted. Play a held note, then adjust the pitch of the muted oscillator (called the modulator) and listen how it affects the timbre of the oscillator you are hearing (called the carrier). You just created a 2 operator FM synth!

Having the classic rompler sounds aboard are good to have in general, but especially with the i-Arpeggio functionality. Anyhow, thanks for the video! Looking forward to that Moog Mirror myself.

I noticed (at points in the beginning) you play 5 notes simultaneously. Is the 5th one still sounding or not anymore (given only its 4 oscillators)? Any idea how to add a 5th (and so on) oscillator? I ask as I own a Matriarch and I struggle when playing as I am used to voicing chords using 5 notes (2 on my left hand, 3 on my right). I don't think there is an easy solution to integrate a 5th (or so) note/oscillator, as that means a) another oscillator source and b) some way to integrate it to the playing (maybe via a laptop/MIDI routing arrangement).
@MilesAwayOfficial
@MilesAwayOfficial Месяц назад
Just force of habit, yea! I think the best bandaid solution would be to go midi/usb out to another instrument that has more polyphony as a layer. Could be a cool effect having sometimes that layer trigger some extra notes behind the fatness of the Moog

I wish Moog was coming out with a Grandfather that basically combines the Grandmother and Matriarch. - 4 oscillators - the two Matricarch utility sections - the Matriarch’s mixer section - the delay and the reverb effects - the two Matriarch envelopes It isn’t going to happen but this would be so much better than what their new synth appears to be
@MilesAwayOfficial

That would be really cool but it would cannibalize the Matriarch a bit so I don’t think they’d do it unfortunately. I’d love to see an analog effects box in this color scheme, like the “Moog Auntie” 😂 and have it be spring reverb, analog delay, filter, distortion, and bbd chorus.

What kind of music do you like to make? I’ve owned and done videos on both the Prophet 6 and OB-6 and they are far easier to mix into modern electronic/pop mixes. But I sold my Prophet and kept the OB-6. Ob-6 has lots of character but it’s the polar opposite of the Matriarch in terms of character, it’s super bright and wiry whereas the M is dark and woody. They actually compliment eachother super well.

Just selling mine. It does a few things wonderfully and sounds lush but ended up just being the Matriarch...that’s kinda it. Lacked the lush versatility of the Sub37 and just lead me down the same playing style every time I played it...and having to build a patch every time meant I was distracted creating a sonic rather than music. Lovely beast though for the right usercase (and defo not for someone playing clean limp electronica with autotune vocals and hammy drum machine rythms), hope it goes to a good home :)
