Matriarch modwheel acting weird all of a sudden

Post by sieppoz » Tue Feb 16, 2021 9:28 am

Hi guys, first post here and I just want to know your opinion before contacting Moog.

Yesterday I turn on my Matriarch and I notice that when I try to modulate something with the modwheel it doesn't make much difference. The modulation is barely audible so I try to modulate only the cutoff amount with a sine wave using the modwheel. That's when things starts to get weird. If I turn up the modwheel it doesn't do anything and if I try to lower it slowly it makes a lot of strange noises like if the cutoff amount is being modulated with S&H.

Today I tried to install an older firmware but it didn't do anything. I was thinking about taking it apart and see what's wrong with the modwheel. Do you guys think it's doable or is it better to send it to a repair shop?

Thanks
