DUST - Cinematic Ambient Improvisation #27 // Moog Matriarch, Sequential Take 5

video upload by David Falcon

"Yesterday I got home and had half an hour free, so I turned on the camera and just improvised whatever came to mind in the spot. I set up a quick patch on the Matriarch based on the one from last video and held an Am arpeggio.
Then I improvised some chords on top with the Sequential Take 5. Hope what came out was enjoyable to listen and not too chaotic."

Serendipity L-Thing vs D-Thing+: Upgrades for Moog DFAM & Labyrinth

video upload by Noisegate and Sam Stosuur

"We patch both modules together, sync them via Mother-32, and explore how they interact with DFAM, Labyrinth, and Teenage Engineering Rhythm for a wild semi-modular jam.

The D-Thing+ transforms the Moog DFAM, adding reset, swing, step control, micro-timing, shuffle, reverse, random modes, and MIDI/CV clocking — turning a brilliant but limited sequencer into a powerful performance instrument.

The L-Thing is built to pair with Moog’s Labyrinth, providing dual clocks, polymeter and polyrhythm modes, Euclidean rhythm options, and generative sequencing that pushes Labyrinth far beyond its stock behavior — while still working with any CV-capable synth.

TIMESTAMPS

0:00 — Intro: Serendipity + what we’re testing
0:23 — Why DFAM needs this (no reset, studio workflow)
2:23 — D-Thing+ reset explained (DFAM’s biggest quirk)
2:52 — Step length control (1–8 steps)
3:43 — Multi menu: step loops beyond 8 steps
4:58 — Micro menu: per-step microtiming / swing feel
5:02 — Sequencer modes overview (normal, reverse, bounce, odd/even, shuffle)
6:34 — Random mode + MIDI/CV modes
8:35 — L-Thing intro + what it unlocks on Labyrinth
10:03 — Patching L-Thing to Labyrinth (clock + bit flip)
11:06 — Sync setup: D-Thing+ clocking L-Thing + reset in sync
11:34 — LFOs + using it with other Moog (Grandmother/Matriarch)
12:44 — Polymeter setup: beats/bar + length tricks
13:42 — Polyrhythm mode (firmware note + chaos)
14:59 — Fast performance tweaks / weirdness
17:56 — Wrap-up: who these are for + closing

👉 Check out Serendipity Synths for more: https://thewessens.net/Serendipity/ma..."

The D-Thing is a device that adds significant capabilities to the DFAM (or Edge) sequencer, such as:

MIDI integration — clocking and individual step play,
Reset — manual, via CV or via MIDI,
Variations in the step order — Forward, Reverse, Bounce, Odds & Evens, Shuffle, Random and Custom,
Changing the sequence length — 1 to 8 steps (up to 16 steps for a custom step order),
Step repeat — assign a play count of up to 8 times to any step,
Off-grid timing — swing beat as well as arbitrary shifts away from the beat.

Moog Matriarch 50 Dark Noisy Modular Patches. Sound Demo Jam

video upload by Anton Anru

"Dark Side Of The M" is a collection of 50 patches for the semi-modular synthesizer Moog Matriarch. It includes: 12 Arps, 10 Leads, 11 Basses, 8 Drones, 9 Chords.
🌌 In this soundset, I aimed to create dark timbres on the edge between experimental and usable. The Matriarch offers excellent possibilities for this: gritty delay tones, the ability to modulate parameters with audio‑rate sources, filter and amplifier overdrive and distortion, FM and AM, and of course, flexible, complex patching.
This also allowed me to explore new preset categories I hadn’t used before—dark, deep Drones and Chords, where a single held key produces intervals.

📦 Get these patches: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/matr...

🧿 The bank covers a wide range of tones: warm, deep, bright, metallic, expressive, dark, evolving, detuned, inharmonic, noisy, distorted, and others.
The presets vary in complexity: some are simpler and will work in any track or genre, while others are experimental and will make your tracks sound unique.

💎 The soundset is suitable for all genres of electronic music, including Techno, House, Trance, Lounge, Downtempo, Funk, Disco, Pop, Acid, Hardcore, IDM, Drum'n'Bass, Breaks, Breakbeat, Trap, Electro, Ambient, Dubstep, EDM, Synth-Pop and others.

📔 The soundset is presented in PDF format. Each page contains notes explaining how the patch works, which parameters are worth tweaking during playback, and how to develop the timbre during a performance. By following these notes and making conscious adjustments, you can explore the depth of the synth.

💽 Each patch includes an audio example, demonstrating how it's supposed to sound. These examples use only the Matriarch Delay without external effects.

🪩 To recreate these presets, you'll need up to 16 patch cords, including long ones.
Make sure your firmware is v1.2.3 or higher for full compatibility with my presets."

Subharmonicon SN 14722
4-Channel Summing Mixer SN 4245

"This bundle of three of Moog's semi-modular synths, DFAM (Drummer From Another Mother), MOTHER32, SUBHARMONICON was specially packaged by the company as a great starter for beginners and professional musicians wanting to get into the modular synth world. This set is beautifully boxed, and shows the love that Moog puts into its products. I have used the synths, but never used or pinned up the posters, sticker or cut outs. They are all untouched. I did play with the patch exploration cards that helped me to learn modular patching to a better extent (Still a full deck).

Moog has discontinued this package, much to the disappointment of many Moog fans. You can still buy the modules separately, but without all the extras that make this set so much fun.

CONTENTS: Moog Sound Studio’s full bundle comes with a three tiered rack with a cable rack that can be attached to store patch cables, custom dust cover, audio mixer, patch book and cables. Other items in the package contain a synth exploration card game and custom artwork by Moog, a Moog screwdriver and Moog pouch for the cables, MIDI patch cable to patch to outboard midi keyboards. I'm adding extra patch cables that weren't in the original purchase" + "'skins' or layovers mimicking the original Moog Matriarch colors which I'm including in the package."

Skybound - full album | rhythmic dark ambient performance with analog synthesizers

video upload by Caught In Joy

"Skybound drifts into a darker side of analog ambient — long shadows, slow-moving bass clouds, quiet tension, and melodic fragments floating through the darkness. It’s deeper, heavier, and more atmospheric than my usual bright, drifting releases… but still gentle, still spacious, still grounded in the warmth of live analog instruments.

If you enjoy immersive night listening, dim-light focus, or slow emotional reset sessions, this one should land well.

Fender Rhodes through nanobox | lemondrop

video upload by Benjamin Dehli

"Signal-processing chain built around a Fender Rhodes piano and a 1010music nanobox | lemondrop.

The Rhodes piano's pickup output is blended with a contact microphone attached inside the instrument to capture mechanical key noise. The combined signal is routed into the lemondrop and used as a live input granular oscillator source. Granular parameters are adjusted in real time to reshape the incoming audio.

Both the processed signal from the lemondrop and the direct Rhodes signal are then sent through the stereo BBD delay on a Moog Matriarch. I also added some reverb from a Chase Bliss Audio & Meris CXM 1978 to create a bit more space and depth.

Nervy jam w/ Torso T-1, Moog Matriarch, Micromonsta 2, Drumbrute Impact

video upload by Jay Hosking

"Please support my work on Patreon: / jayhosking
A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on hardware.

After my recent work with the S-4, Torso reached out to see if I'd like to borrow the T-1 for a couple of months, with no expectations on me making a video or doing anything publicly with it. I found the T-1 to be an exceptional sequencer for noodling around, for both better and worse. Better: you quickly start writing song ideas you wouldn't otherwise come up with, and arranging multiple parts across different instruments is extremely fast. Worse: it was challenging for me to shape the output into a finished song; to get to the finish line, I had to work against (or ignore) some of the T-1's best features.

Together, it makes me think the T-1 would shine most as an idea generator with another sequencer (e.g. the DAW), where you could take output from the T-1 and then further refine it. Really enjoyed my time with it, though.

This also marks the return of the Moog Matriarch. I had sold off the Matriarch because it was too large for my smaller studio, or maybe too large to justify keeping around as a mono device for the table. Then I got a larger studio and immediately missed it. Happy to have it back, even if it still feels too big for what it does.

As for the rest, well, they do what they do well. The Micromonsta 2 is a great synth for filling in the gaps, and is bitimbral; the Arturia Drumbrute Impact is a superb drum machine for live performance; and the Chroma Console is a perfect little sweetener, here taking a mono instrument into the stereo space.

Performed and recorded live to a multitrack output, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.

Thanks for listening.

Mother Global Settings Editor for the Moog Grandmother and Matriarch by DIRE Studio

via DIRE Studio

"The proper Grandmother and Matriarch editor has landed.

Mother Global Settings is an intuitive editor for Moog's Grandmother and Matriarch synthesizers. Sporting a 500-series rack inspired control-per-function interface, it's a huge improvement over the quirky global settings editing method of these instruments.
For Mac and iPad.

Supports the creative flow.

Each setting is accessible with two clicks/taps at maximum, allowing you to concentrate on creating your music. Actual values are instantly visible on the screen, which may also prevent a disaster by letting you see output voltage levels. And we have added octave buttons to easily set and check keyboard transposition, as well as a sequence selector override for the Matriarch, letting you quickly switch to any sequence — not just adjacent ones.

Expanded control panel.

Separate items for oscillator frequency ranges on the Matriarch. Fine grained control over MIDI output and local control. Extra glide toggle and arp/seq gate length settings managed by the app. And a panic button in case the synth goes rebel.

Presets.

Save all global settings, as well as our extra settings, into files that you can archive with other project material or share with others. Quickly recall them when needed. And of course you can reset all settings to factory defaults.

Keyboard control.

Keyboard shortcuts for settings affecting synthesizer parameters that you may wish to change during live performance or recording: Gate Length, Swing, FW/BW End Note Repeat, Allow Seq Random Repeat, Delay Seq Change, Pitch Variance, Gated Glide, Legato Glide, Paraphonic Unison, Update Unison on Note-Off, Noise Filter Cutoff, Delay Filter Brightness and Multi Trig.

Equally at home on stage and in the studio.

Direct USB connection for the fastest operation and complete auto-detection — perfect for live performance. 5-pin MIDI support for connecting via MIDI interfaces — and even through MIDI routers — allows you to integrate the app into complex studio setups."
