    Informative! This is my first real synth, I’m still learning. You can’t do much on a volca so I stepped my game up. It’s a different world with a Moog.

    Nice work! Moogs don't always have to sound vintage. I especially like it when you get a bit more abstract towards the end.

    You could probably get a 4th note/voice with keyboard tracking the filter and tuning the resonance!

    is there a way you can route to the attenuator so you can use it to change between minor/major thirds?

    Just tune to 5 chords. Then you don’t have to decide if it’s major or minor.

    What I do is tune Oscillator 1 to the root note, Oscillator 2 to the minor third, and the Noise Oscillator to the fifth. That makes a minor chord, but you can hit "sync" on Oscillator 2 which changes the minor third to an octave of the root note. Technically a major chord, but there isn't a major third in there. However, it works really well do switch back and forth when you want the chord to be minor or major just by pushing that sync button.

    I love mine but its frustrating. It would help if there was a book of just patches. They give you a handful in the book provided but at least 100 or more would be so useful to me :)

    I agree. It's fun to experiment but trying to get musical tones from it is difficult for me. Another hundred patches would be great, even 50!

    I've wondered if it's possible to hack Grandmother to play (presumably two-voice) paraphonically. I know basically nothing at all about electronics, but couldn't you just somehow allow each oscillator to be tracked by different notes?

    no. here's a read to learn how complex the issue of duophony can be: www.soundonsound.com/techniques/duophony . everything discussed here implies underlying circuitry (being able to register multiple keyboard presses, deciding which press goes to which oscillator etc.). so the rework needed to "hack" something like this would be completely unreasonable. if it were easy to implement there'd be no reason not to include it as an option on every analog synth.

    You can do it with an arduino, but it wouldn’t be easy. The easiest solution would be a eurorack duophonic midi module. Midi from keyboard, out from module as cv, into oscillators. You could then maybe modify the module to accept the voltage from the grandmother and build it into the case. So it would require some drilling/modifications

    Yes, but I use it only for short experiments, because you lose those two sources for modulation... Better include external additional oscillators.

    Grandmother does have a cool reverb and the simplicity and immediacy does allow for faster patching. And it's enough to make the most useful practical patches while being less than half the price, so I would go for the Grandmother I think. The Round Robin mode, aftertouch, better (not ridiculously limited) arp, cv controllable attenuators and the fact that it has a delay would be big selling points for me to get the matriarch. It does have a lot more features. Just not features I would use every day.
