Moog Matriarch KB CV OUT to Use Chromatically

Post by dennis1710 » Thu Jun 01, 2023 9:39 am

Hi,

When I connect the KB CV OUT to a Cutoff while the Resonance is wide open, I'm expecting to be able to play the filter chromatically, but it doesn't.

Is this normal behaviour? If yes, how is it possible to accomplish an output resulting into a chromatic signal?

Thanks and regards,
Dennis

The filter cutoff input is summed with the internal CV sources (envelope and tracking). You should be able to play chromatically without an external patch cord. Just set the envelope amount to zero and adjust the keyboard tracking amount near full. This should allow filter pitch tracking over a couple octaves. The exponential CV circuits in filters are usually not as precise as those in VCOs.
