Moog Matriarch Dark Patchable Analogue Synthesizer

The Moog Matriarch Dark is a new colour variant for the original Moog Matriarch, giving you the same great features and sounds found in a stylish new take on this fantastic patchable 4-note paraphonic analogue synthesizer.

4-Note Paraphonic Analogue Synth

Offering the best of Moog's semi-modular synths, the Matriarch Dark has patchable architecture with classic Moog circuitry that is perfect for exploration and imagination.

Moog Matriarch Dark Patchable Analogue Synthesizer Key Features:

• Dual analog filters with parallel (HP/LP), stereo (LP/LP), and series (HP/LP) modes available
• Dual analog ADSR envelopes
• Dual analog VCAs
• 3x bipolar voltage controlled attenuators with ring mod capability
• 2x4 parallel wired unbuffered mults
• Additional simple analog LFO useful for adding modulation to delay, filters and VCAs
• 1/4" external audio input for processing guitars, drum machines, and more through
• Matriarch’s analog circuits
• Stereo ¼" and 3.5mm Eurorack level audio outputs
• Oscillators based on the Minimoog
• Mixer based on the classic CP3 module
• Filters based on the classic 904A module
• Envelopes based on the classic 911 module
• VCAs based on the classic 902 module
• Analog Delay based on the MF-104M and 500 Series effects

Fantastic Sonic Exploration

Create rich harmonies with ease using 4-note paraphony which you can sequence, shift and store using the Moog Matriarch Dark's intuitive 256 step sequencer. You can also make use of the the analogue VCOs, stacking them to deliver a huge 4 oscillator mono synth sound.

Based on Bob Moog's own original circuit designs, the Moog Matriarch Dark has a wide range of synthesis modules boasting a 100% analogue signal path.

Go from fat, overdriven monophonic bass to evolving paraphonic plucks, cycle through waveshapes into infinite delay trails and more.

Bringing together vintage-designed stereo ladder filters, dual Envelope Generators, stereo Analog Delays and stereo VCAs, the Moog Matriarch Dark is able to give you fantastic, multi-dimensional sound which you can explore through space and time.

Go Beyond

Sense the Moog Matriarch Dark is semi-modular, you can use it as a standalone piece of gear.

However, you can go beyond the Matriarch using the 90 modular patch points with the included 3.5mm patch cables.

This added versatility makes the Moog Matriarch incredibly powerful and a fantastic synth for the stage and studio.

In fact, you can use the Moog Matriarch as a processor of external sound sources and a front-end keyboard for expanding a DFAM, Mother-32, Grandmother or Eurorack modular system.
