The Matriarch from Moog takes the semi-modular analog synthesis platform to uncharted territory. As the new flagship of Moog's legendary lineup, the Matriarch delivers the raw power and infinite sonic potential of a classic modular synth in a streamlined, performance-ready package. Its circuits and spirit are directly inspired by the iconic Moog modulars that shaped electronic music. Yet the Matriarch brings those same fat, gritty textures and endless modulation possibilities into the modern age with smart design choices aimed at serious musicians.

Uncompromising Analog Signal Path

At its core, the Matriarch is an all-analog semi-modular synthesizer engine capable of producing everything from thunderous basses to evolving paraphonic plucks. Its sound generation starts with four analog VCOs that can be stacked for a ridiculously powerful monophonic voice or split into four individual notes of polyphony. Dual Moog ladder filters and stereo analog delay provide shaping and time-based effects. The dual envelopes and modulation matrix let you dial in expressive contours and complex modulations. Everything about the Matriarch's signal path is purely analog for raw, visceral tones.

Tap Into Your Modular Creativity

While the Matriarch can be played right out of the box with no patching required, the real fun begins when you dive into its semi-modular architecture. Easily accessible patch points on the front and rear panels allow you to rewire the signal flow and modulation routing in countless ways. Unlock the full palette of intermodulating oscillators, filters, envelopes and effects. You can even integrate the Matriarch with other Eurorack or Moog modular gear for a hybrid modular synth system of epic proportions.

Sequence and Arpeggiate With Ease

Built-in arpeggiator and sequencing tools turn the Matriarch into a potent songwriting machine. The arpeggiator can be used to craft evolving melodic patterns and basslines, while the 256-step sequencer with 12 pattern storage slots lets you develop full arrangements. Up to four notes per step enable intricate chord progressions and harmonies. Both the arp and sequencer can be synced to external MIDI clock for integration with your DAW or other studio gear.

Stage-Ready Bundle With All the Essentials

This complete stage bundle equips you with everything needed to command the Matriarch from behind your keys. The included Moog EP-3 expression pedal unlocks dynamic filter sweeps and wah effects. A X-style bench provides the perfect seated position and an adjustable keyboard stand lets you dial in the perfect playing height whether sitting or standing. With its massive analog voice and endless creative potential, the Matriarch is a powerhouse synth that will inspire you to reach new heights in your performances and productions.
