Moog Matriarch may end up being one of the greatest synths of all time. Too early to tell and too controversial to say, but it’s definitely my favorite synth. It’s a semi modular 4-5 oscillators on a paraphonic 2-4 voice synth through stereo filters and an analog delay. It’s not true poly and that’s part of its charm because chords are unique on this synth and can be further tweaked through options like round robin mode, oscillator manipulation, and modular wiring. I’ve read false claims that it’s a suped Grandmother. I be;over to be false. It’s based upon similar circuits, but the sound is completely different got through stereo filters and Analog delay vs spring reverb. Even the knobs are calibrated and respond differently. But, together they are a dream. Lastly I believe the Matriarch has a longevity to it that most synths have trouble finding. It’s unconventional and versatile so much that you can go beyond normal synth sounds and spend you whole existence experimenting on it.
Modular synthesis has been reserved for hardcore purists up until Semi-modular Synthesizers hit the scene over the past couple years. The amount of creativity you can find with the grandmother is pretty intense and you start to get an idea amount about sound and exploration.
A vst intended for sound design, but it redefines what that means as it can be laced into almost any genre. Quality large sound that truly makes it worth the purchase
