Enjoy! Whenever you decide to do it
Recently got one and Iām happy to say itās really managed to live up to my expectations (which I thought were too high). Almost too easy getting great and interesting sounds off it.
Anyway, I find the arp a bit confusing as it only uses one of the VCOs if itās not set to four voice unison? The manual seemed to hint at it being possible using all four in parallel but I didnāt find how to do it. Any ideas?
Check all the volumes are up, then check the manual on page 68 - Global Parameters Group 4. The behaviour can be changed to how ever you prefer. Round Robin mode is also particular nice when using the ARP.
Nice little web based editor? Thatās handy
I am super happy with my matriarch. Nice to play with, Amazing sounds, and 0 menu diving, Nothing to store or to prepare, just play.
But: what to add? Pulsar 23 might have similar feeling but i am not digging the sound
Add something like the Waldorf M.
B 2600 maybe?
Congrats!
After enough time exploring your Matriarch, the answer of what to add to it might reveal itself to you.
Or you will discover a need that is missing from your current rig overall
Thought of it too
But i need beats, si dfam or pulsar?
After 1 Year with matriarch, i know i need much more time to master the matriarch
But my A4 feels so heavy to my brain, especially next to my matriarch.
Oh sorry, didnāt realize it youāve had yours for a year already.
I have a Roland TR-06 that I will eventually partner with my Matriarch, because itās got the CV trigger outs.
Iām not sure it will beat my M8 Tracker or Roland MC-101 as a primary beat provider though - ignoring the CV interfacing aspect (neither have it built in). Especially the M8 because in the short time Iāve had it, itās quickly proving to have a satisfyingly fast workflow for structuring an entire song together.
i would say, only got it one year now
Has anyone here had issues that involve not being able to change the incoming midi channel?
My unit was recently updated and is stuck on midi channel 1. I never tried to send midi notes before today, so am not sure if the update is the cause or not.
I had a problem once. I canāt remember the whole situation, but I was trying USB and had no luck, ran a midi cable instead to test and all worked well - then tried the usb again and it had fixed it self. I figured Iād done something wrong, but your problem sounds very familiar. Iād just updated too. Got to be worth a try?
Edit, I didnāt try to change channels, just couldnāt get it working at all - then tried midi cable and back to usb
Thanks for the reply. So, I connected a USB cable and used the web app, mentioned previously, to change the incoming channel. That has worked, but I still donāt know why I couldnāt change it using the Global Settings, on the keyboard itself.
I tried entering stuff via the keyboard once. Never again lol. Web editor is so nice to use by comparison.
Unfortunately the OS is still a bit buggy. If we all write a polite request to Moog, they might change that.
Unfortunately I never managed to reach the support.
They now have a contact form on their website.
Precisely. Never ever got an answer.
