Moog MATRIARCH
Matriarch is an analog synthesizer with an emphasis on imagination. The pinnacle of Moog’ssemi-modular family of synthesizers, Matriarch’s patchable architecture and classic Moogcircuits reward open exploration with endless sonic possibilities and unparalleled analogsound.Easily create rich harmonic shapes with up to 4 notes of paraphony that can be sequenced,shifted, and stored with Matriarch’s intuitive 256 step sequencer, or stack the analog VCOs toplay on a massive 4 oscillator mono synth.With a deep assortment of synthesis modules based on Bob Moog’s original circuit designs,Matriarch’s 100% analog signal path spans a dynamic sonic vocabulary – ?from overdrivenmonophonic bass to gently evolving paraphonic plucks that cycle through waveshapes into awash of infinite delay trails?. ?Coupling the power of vintage-designed stereo ladder filters, dualEnvelope Generators, stereo Analog Delays, and stereo VCAs, Matriarch delivers amulti-dimensional sound that empowers the sonic exploration of space and time?.Though Matriarch’s semi-modular design requires absolutely no patching, 90 modular patchpoints are easily accessible throughout the panel via the included 3.5mm patch cables. Thispowerful electronic instrument is a highly-versatile addition to any stage or studio that caneffortlessly transform from a performance keyboard into a fully modular analog synthesizer at amoment’s notice.In addition to its standalone function, Matriarch is also an ideal processor of external soundsources and a powerful keyboard front-end for expanding a DFAM, Mother-32, Grandmother,or Eurorack modular system.
