Matriarch - Pitch Bend not affecting Keyboard CV Out

Post by moogy_j » Sat May 09, 2020 9:18 am

Hi all,

When i use my Matriarch to control other modules via CV - Pitch Bend does not seem to be affecting KB CV Out. However, it does change the pitch for the internal Matriarch Oscillators. I also just realized that there is no Pitch Bend CV out on the Matriarch...

Could someone confirm this or is there a setting that I am missing?

Confirmed and I'm not surprised - same thing with the Voyager and I believe the Matriarch follows very similar architecture to the Voyager. I was able to easily modify the Voyager to connect the KB CV at the point that combines all of the pitch modulations. Hopefully this is true for the Matriarch as well.

I'm just not quite ready to go there yet.

Thanks for the reply - that is what I guessed. My Model D reissue acts the same also and my Voyager has a PB CV out which helps.

Oh well, at least the glide affects the CV out. Looks like a potential future mod...

The Grandmother has a KB out that correctly incorporates the pitch wheel as well. Seems a bit of an oversight to not include it on the KB CV out on the Matriarch as well..
