Yeah true!! Also the fact that it’s clockable and the way it behaves in sync mode when modulated is bonkers. I really love it.

I wouldn’t replace the GM but add the Matriarch to it. I personally have two Matriarchs but could of easily went with a GM and Matriarch combo.

Yes, the GM is different enough that it’s worth having both. And then you have both delay and reverb!

I don’t have the skills for this but know a very talented wood worker. Before I hit him up I just wanted to gauge any interest to convince him it would be worth the effort 
. If a few more people were even remotely interested I’m sure he could be convinced to spend the time on it.

I would be super duper interested. But I’m in Europe, if that’s a problem.
New soft case, which Moog markets as a dust protector:
Personally I’m leaning towards a Decksaver for dust protection but maybe someone else…
I just ordered one from Stardust covers instead. Mostly for consistency … also ordered Rev2 and Pro2 covers from them.
I get a “Product couldn’t be found” when I go here https://www.stardustcovers.com/product-page/moog-matriarch
The Decksaver appears to leave room for connected patch cables - not a super generous amount of room, but just enough, just like the one I got for my MS-20 Mini

I got that case last year for free when they did a promo where you got a case with a grandmother or matriarch purchase. Didn’t realize it had a red lining lol. I never really opened mine up.
Hahahaha ! If they don’t fix the bugs then I’ll buy this instead
I just use an old white pillowcase on mine, and the original box if I have to move it. I’m a sucker for decksavers otherwise, though.
Seriously guys, how is it even possible that they don’t fix the staccato bug ?
This synth is UNPLAYABLE in paraphonic mode, it’s driving me insane.

What’s this?
Notes are “sticky” in paraphonic mode : when you release a key, the gate is not closed immediately, but a delay is added. So in a nutshell, you can’t play fast. And the feeling is so weird.

Ahh ok, I’ve never noticed it… I rarely use paraphonic mode for para/poly playing, more for round robin sounds for me. I’m going to try it out later so I can join in being annoyed.

It’s really hard to play "traditionally’.

Sadly moog was never good at fixing bugs in firmware. But they getting better in raising prices…so

Just tested. Can repeat the bug. Yeah, that’s annoying. I don’t often play like that, but will watch out for it now…

Ah thanks !
I’m not usually a rumbler, but come on, a synth that you can’t play fast…
Also the bug was introduced in the latest firmware. So it’s not a hardware problem.
I currently have mine in its box, just to keep dust off until its time to power it up again.
Once I get a Jaspers multi-keyboard stand, it will live there, and the decksaver would be more convenient for that setup than box storage.
