It has been about a year now since I created this website and YouTube Channel so I decided to compile all the Moog Matriarch patches I’ve posted into a patch book.

Over 50 patches!

There are 5 exclusive patches (+ 4 variations of those patches) included for those who buy the patch book (plus links to private walkthrough/demo videos for the patches).

In this video I demo a few of the “exclusive” patch book patches and revisit one of the very first patches i posted for the channel.
