It’s inspiring when tutorials are approached from a musician’s point of view versus ticking off boxes on a marketing checklist.

Rarely do we hear “fun” in a tutorial as we do here, but when you said “ Now we’re learning something, right?” I fell off my chair. The mark of a great teacher is the combination of these two elements. Thank you for being such a gentle and patient soul. My Matriarch will now become a great partner.

Bro is using a mirror. He is so analog I love it. Never change!

I love the special vibe you had at the beginning of the video when introducing this synth, as if you were talking about a very distinguished family member, that's a great feeling you shared!

Mr Cuckoo - I just wanted to say thank you for the years of teaching you've provided. Every new synth I get, your vids are the gospel. Everything from Octatrack to Matriarch I feel I owe you some beers. Cheers! Best KZreadr ever.

I'm so glad I fired off this video! Excellent tutorial, plus your passion for the instrument was evident from that incredible intro! I've got the Matriarch and Grandmother on the way now, dark version. Gonna be my first hardware synths, so you can imagine the excitement! I've been waiting a long time for this. Thanks so much for all the amazing info, I know I'll be back for more!

Probably the best synth on the market right now. I love the layout and color scheme, it is really easy to understand what's going on soundwise.

Thank you for this joyous romp! So many cool sounds! I hope you will come back with even more videos as you explore sound creation with the Matriarch.

Far and away the best Matriarch video. I have one of these beautiful instruments and watching this has enabled me to get so much more from it, fabulous stuff Mr Cuckoo

Man thank you so much for taking the time to go all the way on this !

You did it! You showed how to independently use each oscillator on the Matriarch! Great use of the Zoia Euroburo, as well! Very happy with this share!

Such a great video! I cannot get over those sounds!

Always a fabulous adventure watching Cuckoo, and such clear explanation, served up with deep and genuine enthusiasm. Wonderful!!! ❤️

This is a wonderful tutorial I come from guitar and have had a long time interest to explore Moog especially since I recently lost a friend who has had a 70’s miniMoog D. For decades. When he passed away I helped his wife liquidate his collection of instruments and in so doing I made a commitment to myself to learn. About synthesizers. I started with a Moog Grandmother and within a few months I realized I needed a polysynth as I am just too used to chords as well as single notes and patching takes much time and experimentation. I am very grateful for videos like this as it keeps me going and wanting to learn more. The Matriarch is new to me, it arrived only a few days ago and I am ready to start the journey this is really helpful and makes it easy to grasp from a music point of view. Thanks for your time and insight.

We can feel the love you feel with this synth. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for such a joy. ❤️🌻

Thanks a lot for truly entertaining and insightful video! I love the metroid homage and will make an effort trying to recreate your patch/performance as it was EPIC!

Now this is the way to demo a synth. Done with love and interest too. That makes a lot of difference.

I’ve acquired this synth for my studio and I love it 😻 thanks for inspiring me

You have a very natural way of exploring and getting some amazing sounds from this synth. Thanks for the extended video!

Really really nice creative demo. You explained so many things that weren't covered in the manual. My understanding of this synth was improved in magnitude like putting Krell IQ boosting contacts on my brainpan. The lack of stereo outs and pans on the mixer really bummed me out. Although Matriarch is jam packed with features so I shouldn't complain. And the sound is like going back to the Electronic Music Lab at at San Fransisco State. What an awesome synth. Mine is parked right below my Euro synths. Nice expansion with the patch point interfacing. Thanks Cuckoo!

I'm really loving your vibes. Excellent showcase and props for using a mirror to show your face, that's really smart

So enjoyable watching you do all this. Modular even makes sense to me more now.

Amazing MOOG Matriarch, thank you so much. HAPPY NEW YEAR dear Cuckoo. I like watching your videos. GOOD LUCK, many new ideas and TAKE CARE.

Excellent as always. Will be getting one this week :) loving the Spring colors too

I keep going back to this for inspiration and tips! Thank you

I agree. I have had one for a week and can't leave it alone. Gorgeous gorgeous sound.

This is going to end up being the most expensive one your tutorials talk me into adding to my set up... you've never steered me wrong, you always turn me onto the best gear

My all time favourite synth

Originally spurred on by Loopop's video last year, and now yours taking it even deeper and in different directions - not only did I learn some general synthesis things, you've reaffirmed my choice for the Matriarch to be my first big synth. The matrixbrute is lovely and technical; and The Minibrute 2S/microfreak I have from Arturia already are lovely - but there is just something about that Moog warmth and friendly sound. The DFAM and Mother 32 (and totally subharmonicon perhaps even first) will be best friends with this. I've got enough saved up, just no space right now, ah! Thanks again for this!

I wonder if my MIDI-synced grandmother and mother-32 can make a similar effect. 20:41 great choice of timbres. sounds amazing; like an 80s video game church organ from Castlevania. 36:15 live changes to the recorded sequence is very cool.

Absolute dream synth and (relatively speaking) fairly affordable for what you get. I'm thinking of getting a Minilogue XD but tempted to save up for another 6-12 months and get this. Amazing sounding synth with such great creative potential. Thanks for doing this video, really whet appetite!

Just got a matriarch. This video has been teaching me so much about it!

I think this is my 10th time watching this video and I pick up something new every time, and I own the god damn synth 😂😂😂

Yesss! Thank you for this!!

Thank you very much! That’s so cool!

I swapped out my GM (which I was only starting to get to grips with) for a Matriarch. Now I'm totally lost. I went from every other patching attempt being usable to 1 in a dozen being semi listenable. I intend to watch this video 50 times at least. Hopefully I'll be up to speed in a year.

Crazy good demonstration. Love 47:18. Stunning

Calming and delightful

I've had my Matriarch for a few months and couldn't understand what the 4 Voice Paraphony was doing. You have made it so clear now. It dos take a little getting use to it but now at least I understand what is happening

Hey Cuckoo very nice review. Thank you ! Very completed. Can you do one for the Moog Sub 37?

no one else, tuts the various 'moves' you can make with the synth. most just show what the knobs are. granted the last piece was hard for me to follow. but I need more instruction like "so you want to make the thing chime like a bell?" or "so you need a bit more attack" or lots of things. i'm a bit tired of just wanging on the dials and see what happens. I have goals and sounds in my head, and I want to get there. Like I want a tangerine dream kind of klang. i am past the what does an oscillator do. now I want to do things with it. I immensely appreciate the cuckoo style and methods. they are taking me where i want to go.

Pulling out the Euroburo… you're just showing off now. 😅
