Wanted to say thanks to everyone who have watched the video and left so much important, valuable feedback and truly kind comments! So appreciate you all! As for the Moog One not being included: It is a very large and expensive synthesizer to fly with and I was just recovering from pneumonia when I did this shoot. So it had to stay at my studio this time. Also, the Moog One is so beautifully feature rich and deep that it would have made this video twice as long. I’m sure sometime in the near future I’ll return to focus on just the amazing depth of the Moog One and show you just how unique and expansive it truly is. Not to mention the beautiful support that Moog Music is providing for it. I have fallen in love with it and it’s sound. It is an entire electronic music lab in one beautiful package. It’s also a beautiful and creative inducing contrast to the other synthesizers covered in this video. I consider it a large modular system with full polyphonic capabilities, along with film score quality sound. It’s worth it... I’m working hard to really master my accuracy and speed of developing a fast moving and fun tutorial for the Moog One. Until then, here’s a nice introductory feature of the Moog One I conducted at the Factory... kzread.info/dash/bejne/nn9hrMxmpM7Zfag.html Thanks again for all your kind enthusiasm and have fun patching & creating your own music! Love to all, LBD ❤️☕️

I first watched this 3 years ago and today I finally bought the grandmother and as a guitar player who has no idea how to play anything with a keyboard .. I can’t wait to learn !! So excited

Auntie Moog!

I love the performance aspect of a true synthesist, as opposed to a piano player playing a synth. I like how a true synthesist "plays" the filter, LFO, etc. controls live. They're really a "playable" part of the instruments that makes is so much more expressive.

But don't overlook the fact that Lisa is also a very capable keyboardist, which all synthesists are not. True, you can create, and in real-time, mold and change sound, even if you have no keyboard background. But adding a player's technical keyboard playing ability is another tool in one's toolbox, and releases limitations a less-experienced or capable player has in being able to make choices and express themselves when playing.

ken gruz The point is: you don’t have to permanently use one or even both hands for knob-twiddling in order to do a synth justice, i.e. to not play it like a kind of static organ. I love to *play* with both hands *and* simultaneously change the sound. The magic word is *aftertouch*. I mostly have 4 to 6 parameters routed to it resulting in either subtle nuances or completely different patches. My choice was the Subsequent 37, btw, because it’s the only one which can store such a mod matrix setting in a preset.

@@RayyMusik I understood the point. Let's just call keyboards, pedals and such- Controllers. And like any controller, the more skilled you are to use them- even a knob, or a keyboard- the better advantage you have.

@@RayyMusik Yes on an fronts. Craft a melody by tickling the ivories and caress it into mind boggling worlds by playing the knobs. The other secret to doing both simultaneously is to use an expression pedal, which not only gives you another appendage for direct control, it also naturally leads to getting your whole body physically into the rhythm as you expressively pump the pedal with your performance. The Subsequent 37 is my desert island synth. The sequencing, patch memory, amazing total DAW integration, complex modulation options, and obviously the stunning sound quality. I would buy a second Subsequent before buying a Minimoog or Grandmother. The Matriarch is tempting for the 4 voice paraphony, hi-pass and stereo low pass filters, but the lack of patch memory, hidden configuration parameters and simplified envelopes seem like painful compromises when compared to the Subsequent. And I'm very curious if any of the Moogs discussed here other than the Subsequent output MIDI CC on every knob.

Lisa, you need your own channel with a weekly show. Would watch every single one. Brilliant.

She is the Matriarch, amazing work Ms Bella Donna.

One of the best synth demos I've came across on KZread!

I’m always blown away by Lisa’s pure skill

That first demonstration on the Matriarch made me misty eyed. You’re a real sorceress of sound on these beautiful instruments, Lisa!

I legitimately cried at 16:00 the way Lisa works with the matriarch is a thing of beauty

I found myself forgeting this was about choosing a synth and got totally wrapped in your jams. I'll be looking for more of your work. Really inspiring Lisa, thanks.

Lisa is such a great spirit and sophisticated musician. For me one of the best ambassadors for Moog they could get. My personal actual favourite after lots of testing is the matriarch - no model d though but much more flexible.

Lisa is very easy to listen to and I always love her enthusiasm.

This video is great. It's not just the best Reverb demo I've seen but it's the best synth tutorial and explanation as well. Crazy good. Crazy.

Lisa Bella needs to do a master class

Wonderful work as usual, Ms Bella Donna! 🥰 Just got the Matriarch in my studio and wow I’m in love with it already!!

What a talented woman!

I know the feeling. Just got my grandmother today, and I was dreaming about the FedEx guy last night waiting on that knock on the door.

The only thing cooler than these synths is Lisa herself.

I’m glade to see that reverb has LBD doing their synth stuff. This synth goddess hasn’t had half of the attention she deserves.

Sometimes i just come back and re watch this video... Such an amazing performer

I'm a guitarist/bassist who has always loved synth sounds. Bought a Mother-32 a few years ago and I loved it so much that I went all in on a Matriarch this year. Oh my gosh, it sounds phenomenal! Such a rich and satisfying instrument.

I first saw Lisa on a Mellotron video, and was impressed enough to search out her name. I think she always brings excellence.

Wow. She’s great. I could watch and listen to Lisa all day.

Moog is lucky to have you! All of your videos are so informative and inspiring, and you're truly tapping into the full potential of these amazing machines!

Whatever Lisa Belladonna plays, it's a joy to listent to. When a Moog is in her hands... it's heaven!!

So clear , fully easy understanding in so little time used Moog teacher of the year !!!

More videos with Lisa Bella Donna please.

Great vid/product review format! Well done, Reverb & Lisa!

This is such an inspiring video! This showcases how amazing of an instrument the synthesizer is in the hands of a talented synthesist!

"I have 9 of them...." I expected like 3 tops

I actually first dipped my toe into the semi modular/modular world w/ the Moog apps for iPad. Well worth checking them out to understand the basics of synthesis, which can then be applied to the real deal

Lisa, you Rock! Your musicality and ability to explain just how to make these wonderful beasties do their magic is beyond reproach. Great stuff!

Thank you Lisa. Hope you are feeling better. I so enjoy your playing and programming. Great to hear you talk about the Moog stuff, which I love as well!

That Matriarch pfff blew my mind away

Great work Lisa... I love the way you set arpeggios, then glide up and down the keyboard playing.. Its very you and your playing style, which I love ! Great video

She knows her stuff...this video blew me away...very helpful indeed...only problem is now I want them all now!

I've always loved the sound of the Moog, watching your fingers fly over those keys is magic!

Loving the sound quality in this video. You did a great job displaying its abilities. Thank you.

wow. She's pretty incredible.

This is just an incredible demo. It’s awesome to see someone utilizing these gorgeous machines, who has the knowledge of synthesis, and applies it, as opposed to so many other demos, where the person showing the synthesizer treats it almost like a keyboard with effects knobs. This was a treat to watch. I got my Grandmother this past weekend, and after a month of research, getting to play with one at guitar center, one of the deciding factors in buying one was watching another video that Reverb did , comparing it to the Korg Minilogue (which I have as well) , along with all my other research, and the fact the the semi modular capability allows me to use other modular synths like the DFAM or Mother 32, any kind of module that could be used in modular setup... since it arrived, it’s easily the synth I play the most, over the Minilogue or my OP-1 . I love using all my synths to create layered pieces, but there is nothing like a Moog, or I should say the Grandmother, since it’s the only Moog I own, after wanting a Moog since the 90s. As a guitarist, nearing 3 decades of playing guitar, I’m completely entranced with synthesis, learning more about it, and couldn’t be happier with the GM. Even the very cool, yet simple box the Grandmother comes in, is awesome .

Very informative - The presenter shows true mastery of these instruments.

Lisa this was so great. Did a deep dive and have become a huge fan. Thanks so much, I hope you keep doing demos.

Beautiful demo. It's clear you work with the magic through these machines.

Lisa's demos are sooooo freaking good.

Generous, thorough, educational, artistic. Thanks for this thorough and well explained guided tour.

I wish Lisa Bella Donna could give me music lessons. That would be a dream come true. The work on all the synths is sublime but there bits on the Matriarch that made my hair stand on end. That never happens! Absolutely incredible musician, I love you!

Even though I only understand maybe like half of how Moog synthesizers work, I still love that there’s so much I don’t understand. It keeps the fascination stoked! Amazing job Lisa🤘

Great video! My band uses a Sub 37 and a Matriarch as our main bass, lead, and ambient pad synths. They’re the core of our sound. Classic and irreplaceable ❤️

The matriarch is what pushed me over the edge. What a piece of hardware!

Thank you so much Lisa! You're the only one who actually broke down the many possibilities of the Moog synth. You made it look so easy. Thanks. I'll look into it and find ways to improve my music projects.🤗❤️🌙

I appreciate at the end of the demo of the Mother 32 and DFAM Lisa told the non-keyboard players out there to buy! Sold!

Gorgeous! And what a spectacular display of talent, artist workshop from Lisa - our Moog Goddess!

Thank-you so much !

I came here to get a bit of info on Moog. This girl knows her stuff. It’s great seeing someone with this much talent and enthusiasm.

Yeah, that bit at 15:00 on the Matriarch is such a mix of cartoon, bliss, and joy: well done!

Best analog synth demo ever. Thanks so much.

The Minimoog basslines on Ultravox songs are just awesome

Such a great video from a true master. Every single sound she creates is fantastic. I definitely need a Matriarch!

Sub 37. ‘Rich and delicious’. That was enough for me. Mine arrives tomorrow!

I loved this video. Keep teaching through video, this is going to be good for hundreds of years

One of the best Moog demos I've seen on KZread. Thanks Lisa. Such a fan of your music/passion, and mastery of these incredible instruments :)

I know those Moogs are great but you playing them, just INSPIRING!!!

Much better than the Moog videos out there. Nice information. For most of us working slobs cost is the defining factor on what to buy.

I have been a Moog fan for years and owned many. But the latest range of semi-modular synths are just awesome as amply shown here by Lisa Bella Donna. Great demo.

I love the fluid playing and the exciting melodic and harmonic as well as texture rich sounds Lisa Bella Donna coaxes out of the Moogs, Some great deep, gnarly left hand riffs too!

13:15 made me get a Matriarch. And I'm not kidding.

such a fascinating, and enjoyable demo film? I really didn't want it to end!? Thanks Lisa.

That Grandmother trick, feeding the filter output to the noise input really does add to the sound! Wow

Matriach is my fav. Thank you Lisa for this amazing performance

The matriarch in a class of its own, wonderful demo Lisa

Thanks for your expert opinions. Great instruments in talented hands. Loved how you broke down key points about the Moog's.

Incredible playing and creativity! Love the music so much!

I love that Matriarch patch! I added one additional mod where I send the Matriarch triangle LFO output through an attenuator, and into delay1 input, and then I can dial in some serious, floor shaking, low bass slowly increasing the triangle rate from low, and leaving the attenuator dialed full left!

What a funky player. Nice.

You have such a great talent. Thank you for sharing your incredible gift. The best!

I liked when you said the sky is the limit on this instrument; then you made a piece of art with that machine. I loved the video. Thank you.

Great vid. I have been researching for a week and thanks to this one I know which one I want to start with. Great playing too :) Thanks!

Fantastic video. Great sounds and a superb presentation. More from Lisa please!

Amazing video. I am so glad KZread lead me to you and your splendiphorous synth knowledge/skill. :) Thanks!

Fantastic and very informative video, thank you Lisa!
