In my opinion this is the best synth Moog has released in many many years. Easily tops anything in the Sub series and in the end will sit up there right next to the MiniMoog. I remember 5-6 years ago thinking Moog was done with any new ideas. Then the Mother-32, DFAM, and Grandmother came along and Moog is back in peak form.

This was a very clear and easy tutorial. It should be the first or one of the first videos that a new user watches. It would have saved me a lot of time and trouble trying to figure out how to make my first sequence. Thanks!

My grandmother arrived a couple of days ago and I'm loving it! Thanks for this helpful video.

Thank you for doing these videos. These were really helpful with learning the Subsequent, I definitely appreciate them happening for the GM and I am sure others will as well.

You have a talent for explaining this. I'm waiting on the Grandmother (dark) I just ordered to be delivered, and I've been devouring tour/tutorial videos here on KZread for the past 2 hours. As someone who is new to synthesis, most of them are completely leaving me in the dust due to heavy use of jargon and theory. This was the first video I've found which really explained (and demonstrated) a functionality in a way that was really useful and enlightening for me. Great post, thanks!

Easily my new favorite synth that I got! Great job Moog!

We picked up a Grandmother about 3 months ago and about one month ago we picked up the Dfam. Wanting to return the Dfam but definitely keeping the Grandmother! I’ve been learning the sequencer and after this video I feel more qualified. Many thanks!!

Such a cool guitar!

Excellent, excellent demo!

Wow. I had no idea it had this functionality. I was pretty much done with the idea of semi-modular stuff as I loathe the patching, but this give a lot of power to the synth for arps and sequences without even being patched. Thanks!

Thanks, for making this video Moog! Super helpful.....!

How do you like the GM/DFAM combo? What else are you pairing them with? I’m considering getting the DFAM myself to pair with my MS20/GM. But I’ve yet to decide.

I’m sure I’m not the first to catch this BUT I believe you’re the “VOICE OF SYNTORIAL” is this so???!!! Dammit I want answers!!!!! 🤣! Thank you for the instruction 👍🏾

Moog-tastic!

THATS the way, to make a tutorial ! Thanx a bunch, and please let them keep on coming - and i would not have a problem, if you could get Lisa Bella Donna, to make a HEAP of tutorials :-)

Dream Park by Niven and Barnes with the original paperback cover. Sweet!

Grandmother Funker! Wow!

Really great tutorial. Can we get a demo video of this unit controlling the Korg ARP odessy module with CV/Midi?

that was badass

Love the way the sequencer is on this thing. My most popular vid is Grandmother Seq Jam where I put it through its paces. Would love the option to play in reverse not forward/reverse, next update.

Haut Strange. The sequencer plays forward, forward/reverse, or random. The only thing usable in a song out of those is forward. I would use reverse all the time if available.

Hi Moog. I see you guys sometimes have other colors for your patch cables. This video has yellow (I think) to the left of the Grandmother. Are they available for purchase?

Dope.

What an awesome sequencer! Is there a way to clock it with Ableton?

Does it record changes made to the sound itself during recording for the arpregiator?

Unfortunately, no. You'll need to rely on your brain or your iPhone camera to record any automation. Same with patches. I find it a very fair trade off in order to maintain the analogacity of the old dame.

Any of you guys feel free to send me one Great. Thanks!

Can't we clock it with a moog sub37 via midi?

Hi! Anyone have any ideas why my Grandmother isn't arpeggiating when I follow the steps to hold the certain notes that I wan to arpeggiate? I click play and hold, then press the notes I want to arpeggiate, in the order I want them arpeggiated then it ends up only repeating a single note and not the other notes I wanted?

@dylanjones2475

same here

Very good boop beeps.

Does the sequencer have swing?

Whenever I press the hold button to latch the arpeggiator, I press the keys I want but as soon as I release my fingers from the keys only the first note of the sequence repeats rather then the whole sequence. Any idea why this is happening?

Also make sure the vca isn't set to envelope

well that's a promising interface for arp and sequencer but no time divisions for the arp???

Is the Sound from the Intro also a moog grandmother Sound?

I have a really weird problem with my grandmother.... Right out of the box everything worked just fine, the arpeggiator, sequencer, etc. But for some odd reason, suddenly this section doesn't seem to work anymore.... When I enter the Arp mode and press down some keys I hear....nothing..... Even the red LED doesn't seem to respond if I turn up the BPM, it just constantly lights red. Is my synth broken???

If the second note is different from the first, indeed, it would be a legato. But if it is the same note, then it's a tie

'Ties' means the note will glide from first to the second, like legato. If both notes are the same, then the note will simply sustain. I hope this makes it clear

Great description of the features but it would be nice to have a more musical demo, especially being an official Moog video. Playing chopsticks on it doesn't do it justice.
