Matriarch : What a Moooooog

I've had the Matriarch for a year now, so It's time to conclude

As an old Moog fan and previous oner of the Voyager RME I was expecting to be happy with the Matriarch, I'm actually more happy than I could expect, every time I switch her on and start noodling and fiddling I end up with a huge smile, it's so easy to get creative and results are always so good its almost a mystical experience.

both as a composer of ambient tracks and as a producer of prog music the Matriarch is the solid part in your composition that you can always be sure it will bring the deep and unique but still classic tone to your track.

Unlocking it's full potential takes time and exploring but the process is always educating and fun.

Overloading the VCA creates such a rich saturated tone that feels much more organic than anything I could squeeze out from the Voyager, and the filter can be as polite or as nasty as you'd like, modulation is a bliss (though I would gladly have a bit more patch points (mostly for the filter spacing and LFO intensity) but you can't have it all, can you? and lastly the analog delay is the cherry on the top, a tad noisy but if you tame it a bit you can find the sweet spot and let the charm of a BBD take your matriarch to her throne.

I didn't have any issues with the instrument except for the bad midi clock lock on that has been now addressed with firmware update v1.2.3

So, If you are an explorer and a Moog fan there is no way you can say no to this.
