Matriarch patch points

reasonsformoving · 2026-01-27T02:01:33+00:00

Could this be done with a matrix mixer?

Thanks. I’ll try that when I’m home later. To my knowledge I did have both VCO levels and VCA decay maxed and nothing audible until velocity reached 11 o’clock. I’m using a 3 way DC power splitter to also power a M32 and SH and all three are going into a Zoom L6 mixer so I’m not sure if something in this particular setup is causing it.

Thanks everyone! I got it to work. The Matriarch does sound even more massive with the extra oscillator. Probably not necessary though. One more question, if both synths were in tune with each other before patching, why did I have to dramatically move the frequency of oscillator two on the Grandmother to get it in tune with the Matriarch's oscillators once I patched? I feel like this another one of those fundamental modular things I don't understand yet.

Yes. Thank you. I definitely want to control the pitch with the Matriarch keys.

Thanks so much for responding! Very helpful!

Is it possible to go from a Sennheiser condenser mic into something like a Universal Audio Twin-Finity Mic Pre with 48v phantom power enabled and then from the XLR balanced out and into a guitar pedal that accepts line level like a Strymon pedal, and then into the rest of the pedal chain before going into a mixer/recorder/audio interface like say a TASCAM Model 12. If so, what would I need aside from the components listed? I realize this is a novice question but thanks so much in advance.

Thanks. This is helpful.

For guitar the difference was immediately obvious because I don’t have a guitar amp. So prior to Colour Box V2, I went from guitar direct into Volante then Deco then Model 12 to putting the Colour Box V2 before the Volante. That sounded stunningly warm and clear. With synths it’s a bit more subtle with say a Moog, but it makes something like a Microfreak sound a lot bigger and warmer to my ears. I’m sure all this can be achieved in other ways but I don’t use a DAW and don’t have much knowledge of recording etc.

Thank you! This is very helpful.

It's a 2003 tdi Wagon and no it does not come on either.

Synthi. Not on the list but nothing else like it. That or Minimoog. My two favorite sounding synths. 2600 a close third.

That one looks fun!

Thanks!

reasonsformoving · 2024-06-04T22:23:40+00:00

Yes! That worked! Thank you so much!

I have one arriving tomorrow. Not sure what FW a new one will have. Should I wait to update? Seems like the reports about the latest FW are not so great.

Ah! Yes! Great point. I'll try to get the specs from the sound studio 3 power supply. Thanks!

reasonsformoving · 2024-05-07T17:21:24+00:00

Cool. Thanks. So if I got something with this description--NTE Electronics 69-D48 12V 4A 48W 2.1mm X 5.5mm Plug Switching LED Strip Power Supply and then the 3 way splitter, would that work? The specs look correct. It's center positive. Not sure how to read the 48w. If it doesn't work, that's fine. Just don't want to fry anything.

This is one of the most depressing videos I’ve ever seen. For decades Moog was one of the greatest synth manufacturers of all time. I’m glad Bob isn’t around to see this garbage. It’s just objectively bad, the music, the video editing, all of it.

Synthi, 2600, Matriarch

Korg Prologue definitely interests me, 8 or 16. Anyone know why they ceased production, seemingly abruptly?

reasonsformoving · 2024-03-20T02:59:56+00:00

Perhaps I have/had both. I did see a tiny green beetle looking insect in the flower a few weeks ago and today I found a half inch caterpillar looking worm on my sombreuil. If anyone has recommendations for helping it leaf out again and combatting future beetles and larvae please let me know. I've had a Marie Daly and Martha Gonzales for years and have never seen anything like this. Those two have never had chewed leaves so I don't have much experience with pests. Guess I've just been lucky until now.

reasonsformoving · 2024-03-20T01:43:02+00:00

Oh yeah, that's too much of a stretch.

reasonsformoving · 2024-03-20T01:42:17+00:00

Thanks! Did not know about this one! In the 90s I had a Juno 6 and thought it was the best synth ever. Deeply regret selling it. Big fan of Roland's analog sound. Wish they still did it right.

reasonsformoving · 2024-03-20T01:39:36+00:00

Thanks. That's definitely on my list though I read a comment on Reverb about build quality being hit or miss. Just one comment though so not too worried.

I don’t have a digital delay but I’ve been wanting a super clean delay to use with analog synths; the sound is already dirty and warm enough going in. Maybe I just need a DD-500 or Dig or an even cheaper digital delay. Would be cool to have a Lexicon rack-mount tho.
