OBERHEIM MATRIX-1000 / MATRIX-6 | NEW CUSTOM PATCHES | Analog Synthesizer HD DEMO

(c) 2015-2023 by AnalogAudio1
You can buy these patches for your Matrix-1000/6/6R - read the description for further details (scroll down).
Synthesizer demo of the OBERHEIM MATRIX-1000 (1988) and MATRIX-6/R (1986). In the video you hear a single Matrix-6R, but the Matrix-1000 has the same sound engine and it sounds identical. My Oberheims are in original state with the original firmware from the eighties.
In this movie I play my own sounds - on some sounds I used a little amount of reverb from a Lexicon MPX-500 or a delay effect from a Korg SDD-3000 (right channel only), but no further effects. Drums and bass sequencing by Akai MPC 1000 (but no multitrack recordings, no eq, no compression).
_______________________________________________
THE SOUND PROGRAMS IN THIS MOVIE:
As an owner of a Matrix-1000, Matrix-6/R: would you like to use these sounds for your music?
AnalogAudio1 is proud to present the professional "ANALOGAUDIO1 MATRIX PATCH BANK" featuring 76 highly useful patches for your Oberheim. This soundset contains classic/warm/misterious pads, punchy basses, string machines, synth brass, leads, but also some very interesting ambient sounds and modular-like FX (all the sounds you hear in the video and more). These patches are completely different from the numerous ROM presets found in the Matrix-1000.
The AnalogAudio1 patches have been programmed with various controller assigned to the modulation wheel and aftertouch pressure for further performance expressiveness and various real time motion and tonal effects. Included is a patch list (PDF), which helps you find the right sound quickly.
This bank will load into Oberheim Matrix-1000, Matrix-6 and Matrix-6R. (Of course this bank will not load into Oberheim Matrix-12 or Xpander).
This unique sound package will inspire you and add more character to your music - which is essential to be successful!
The ANALOGAUDIO1 MATRIX PATCH BANK costs 18 Euros (payment via PayPal) and includes:
* 76 new patches for the Oberheim Matrix-1000/6/R in syx format
* Patch list: All patch names numbered and listed (PDF)

[@thesearethesuns]

I absolutely love my Matrix 6r--it's honestly my "secret sauce" synth. So many great sounds can be designed with this, and a little bit of patience. ;)

[@CharlieYoung-nn4dy]

I have a Matrix-6. Wanted to sell it. Found these patches. Got the patches. Installed the patches. Didn't sell my matrix-6. Long story short: If you have a Matrix-6/1000/6R...Get. Those. Patches.

[@powerdx7383]

A great demo of Matrix 6 synth. I remember when I played around with the Matrix 6 back in 1987. Back then, it didn't really impressed me, but now when I listen to its sound, I wish I had foresight to get one and keep it.......

[@AnalogAudio1]

thanks! Well, most people judge a synth by its factory presets... but when I was new to synths, I also did

[@powerdx7383]

Oberheim synths have such a great character. I don't own any Oberheim synths, but I use my DX7 to emulate some Oberheim sounds and some of them are pretty good. I would love to own Matrix synths one day.....

[@Cincinnatijames]

It probably cost more than it does now

[@snuppssynthchannel]

My father own a Matrix 12, never have i heard a fatter and warmer synth. Its matrix modulation capabilities are insane! And its light, and portable. The last true Oberheim.

[@snuppssynthchannel]

This is a great synth by the way.

[@TantuBeats]

Got myself a M1000 a couple of months ago, so in love with the sound. I'm mailing you now about the patches!

aside from 4:14 sounds nostalgic without sounding dated, pure class

[@fjfrancois]

I don’t know is true, but I heard that the Matrix 1000 has a slightly difference on sound to the Matrix 6R.

Excellent work on the patches. Is there any chance you would make a version available for the Kiwi-1000 upgrade of the M-1000? The patch parameters are quite different from the factory scheme.

[@AnalogAudio1]

Thanks! The problem is, very few Matrix owners have that upgrade installed...

[@S0und0racle]

Cool Synth...

[@naturecollision]

sounds so 80's great synths for everything retro, or boards of canada?

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Each time I imagine getting one of these modules, I also find myself lusting after the Roland MKS-70. Have you ever used or owned one of those? Is comparing it with a Matrix model a question of apples and oranges? Your programming of the drumbeats cries out Commodore 64/Elektron SID Station (in a real positive way). I also dig (what sound like) momentary references to Real Life and The Alan Parsons Project.

[@AnalogAudio1]

the MKS-70 is the rack version of the JX8P, right? I never had a MKS70, but I can say that the Matrix sounds much warmer than the JX8p. Maybe it helps ;-) Well the drums are actually drums from a cheap small casio keyboard, which I sampled with the MPC 1000.

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

AnalogAudio1 Aw, I was so sure it was a multitimbral application of the Matrix synths. Those sounds fit so well with the analog ones. Thanks for your two cents' worth about the Oberheim-v-Roland comparison..

[@maximiliandigregorio]

nice

i hate when analogaudio uploads a video of a synth i sold off... makes me want them back :((

lol

[@sP33DyEd]

😁 This time I bought my matrix 6 before seeing his video 😉

[@redpillqueer8303]

I want to buy your patches, but I think a lot of us would like to know what effects you used!

[@AnalogAudio1]

See video description for details - just a little amount of reverb and delay on some patches. To contact me, see email address in the video description.

[@RyanParkerTV]

Did you record the demo on a Matrix 1000 or a Matrix 6?

[@AnalogAudio1]

Matrix-6R

[@ish233]

Very cool

[@jpboo24]

How did you achieve the ensemble effect on some sounds? Was that programmed, or using the delay?

[@AnalogAudio1]

It's part of the sound design. it sounds that way without any additional effect.

[@jpboo24]

Are there split layers involved? ;)

[@AnalogAudio1]

@@jpboo24 No, just single sounds.

[@joachim595]

Sometimes I don’t even know if I find the older VCO synths with tree panels sounding better because of the dignity of their furniture design look. I just don’t trust my ears sometimes.

[@AnalogAudio1]

the Matrix-6 with DCOs sounds much fatter than many VCO synths. Finally the sound is relevant...

[@joachim595]

AnalogAudio1 How you mean finally? That a rack synth isn’t too good looking to begin with so it all comes down to sound? If so, I agree.

[@AnalogAudio1]

What I wanted to say is, it's not relevent if VCO or DCO. For my ears, the Matrix-6 DCOs sound much fatter than the VCOs of a Prophet-6. It's a matter of electronic engineering.

[@joachim595]

AnalogAudio1 Ok! I trust you ☺️ I haven’t played that many VCO’s to know.

[@carmafons.a.3403]

Can anyone tell me the differences between the Matrix 1000 model and the Matrix 6R model?

[@SacSynths_Jack_Z]

Same sound engine

[@Musical.Maze.1]

Do you have the original 1000 patches and any new ones, in multi-sample WAV files?

[@AnalogAudio1]

no, sorry. These are sound settings which can be loaded into an Oberheim Matrix synth. It's for people who have the actual synth.

[@Musical.Maze.1]

Thank you for your reply!

[@KurtFuller]

Sounds very similar to Korg DW8000

[@AnalogAudio1]

both have an analog 24dB lowpass filter... but the oscillator sound is completelly different

[@gibafilm]

the DW8000 is a great synth which can sound a little bit like an Oberheim, but it has it's own unique character. Both underrated. Fantastic demo, great patches.

[@gjc82071]

Giba Film - Yes, the DW8000 does have it's own character. I've got a lot of synths, and qiote a few effects processors. (I love effects processors) Some synths need effects processors, some don't, & some sound great when you add effects processing. IMO the DW8000 is one of those synths that doesn't need much processing. Actually....I've found that adding effect processing kind of diminishes the DW8000s "character". I think the DW8000 sounds best, totally raw....or w/slight hint of delay or reverb.

[@johnnyapostal]

Hey loving the sounds... I have a matrix1000 which is mono so I guess these sounds wouldn't sound as good in comparison to the matrix 6 apart from basses of course... have u tried these out on the matrix1000 ?

[@AnalogAudio1]

of course, the sound is identical

[@fabiocuccu6086]

I have a Matrix 6 and it's also mono. Stereo is only for splits, basically.

[@M80-]

@@fabiocuccu6086 Hi! Planning to buy one. Is it alone enough to sound big, fat or makes it first "stereo" with some delay, reverb? What is your opinion, is it worth the money?

[@fabiocuccu3689]

@@M80- yeah absolutely. stereo in synths is overrated IMO. Even the Prophet 5 is mono. You're gonna have that stereo spread when you put some reverb, chorus etc. Soundwise, the M6 has a HUGE bottom end, when I use it in recording I have to cut some of the low end most of the times.

[@M80-]

@@fabiocuccu3689 Amazing, thanks. Planning to buy a Matrix 6R first and later a Matrix 1000 in Poly Chain. Do you recommend an analog chorus, reverb pedal or VST like Vallhalla?

[@daveogarf]

I have what might be an odd question, if you'd be so kind... What font style did you use for the names? Thanks.

[@AnalogAudio1]

+daveogarf I don't know anymore, but not the original Oberheim ones - just similar ones, which were heavily edited to look right.

[@joachim595]

How would you say the Matrix 1000 compares to the Xpander/Matrix 12? And why are the latter two so much better?

[@derekbaker3279]

They are very different beasts. The Expander & the Matrix are both 6-voice, but the routing options are much much more fexible, so one can be creative & produce much more sophisticated sounds. The 12 has the extensive routing options of the Expander, but twice the polyphony & includes the keyboard. IMHO, while the Matrix 6r sounds great (and even better with subtle chorus & reverb), the other two have more depth & a more expressive character. But YMMV... 🙂 There are some very good demos on YT for each of the synths I mentioned. Listen to them with the YT video settings set at 720p or 1080i to guarantee the least compressed sound, and make sure to listen with the best quality headphones you have.

[@AbsurdTV1]

What is the difference between the matrix 1000 and matrix 6r? Also, what's the difference between the matrix 12 and the matrix 6?

[@yongamusic]

The 1000 can store 1000 patches, whereas the 6r only stores 100. You can edit sounds on the 6r using the buttons. The 1000 has no on-board editing capabilities; you'll need an external device for that.

[@heitorfialho6762]

what program that you used to program? and how you set with the record program?

[@AnalogAudio1]

I created the sounds on the Matrix-6R, without computer, without software

[@heitorfialho6762]

do you think thar 6r sounds fatter and better or this is a myth?

[@AnalogAudio1]

fatter than what?

[@heitorfialho6762]

than the 1000

[@AnalogAudio1]

I did not notice any differences. But I did not compare them side to side. I just loaded my patches and they seem to sound identical. What you hear in this video, is always the Matrix-6R

[@SilasJohnEgan]

These patches work with Standard Matrix 6 also right?

[@AnalogAudio1]

Yes, of course, as the video description says.

+AnalogAudio1 Hi AnalogAudio1. Can I ask which program you used to edit these awesome patches? Also, how would I install these patches on a Matrix 1000? (what would I need to do it?) I'm not very familiar w/SysEx dumps. I did a few little back in the 1990s using a Korg O/1Wfd, but the O/1W had functions to receive & dump SysEx. I have no idea how to do it w/o a device like the O/1W.

[@AnalogAudio1]

+gjc82071 Hi, I created the whole bank on the Matrix-6R without editor. With the patches I deliver exact instructions how to load the bank via sysex - even for beginners easy to understand. You need a computer with MIDI interface and a MIDI cable.

Is it possible to pan the voices in the matrix 6 r ?

[@AnalogAudio1]

In the SPLIT mode yes, you have two outputs. But in general use (one sound) you have a mono output.

[@mrcgeraldes]

Anyone agrees that this synth is not versatile? I mean all demos and most patches I hear are very similar to each other. It's a pad machine mosnter tho but I don't hear doing anything else but this. It excels at pads and thats it. Or anyone has a opposite opinion? Thx

[@AnalogAudio1]

Oberheims are especially known for their excellent brass and pad sounds, that's why you hear these eveywhere. But the Matrix-6/1000 synths are very well equipped analog synths and very versatile. They can do all sorts of analog sounds, it depends on you, what you do with them. You hear in this vid, how different they can be. You hear pads, basses, FX, leads, sequencer-sounds... you can't tell me you only hear pads.

[@Rhythmattica]

So, A year later.... In what contact do you mean by "Not Versatile" ? If its only because of the content audio here, I can assure you... Its tottaly can Kick freckle in the lows, and bite though with leads I this your only reference? Im interested in what is your base line (little pun, well orally , not in text)

[@RoofLight00]

[@reginaldjean-louis6103]

Why would you spend 800+ USD and not learn to use it inside out and use it to it's full extent. If you have to buy creations by someone else when the device gives you the possibility to create you have more money than musical aptitude. Find a new hobby.

[@AnalogAudio1]

The answer is simple. Some musicians buy it for the great basic sound and for making music, not to learn how to program it :-) apart from that, it takes long to come up with really good sounds. If you already have usable sounds, you can concentrate on your music.

[@reginaldjean-louis6103]

@@AnalogAudio1 That's like saying some people buy a guitar to "make music" not for learning how to place your fingers and strummimg correctly to get the sounds you want. It's an electonic intrument but intrument none the less.

[@AnalogAudio1]

@@reginaldjean-louis6103 A complex synth is not a guitar... building your own guitar and creating your own sounds would be the more appropiate comparison. Both need more than playing skills. Apart from that, you can use these sounds as starting points for your own creations. Some buy the Matrix for creating sounds, some for making music and others for both (like me). Let people decide theirselves how far they want to go with it and respect other opinions than yours - peace :-)

[@MikeWright99]

There are some who don't know how to program a particular sound that they like or exactly what the synth they own is capable of. So they can purchase patch packs like this one and using a PC editor can look at them extensively to understand how they were put together. Matrix editors on computers are great for this...you can see how the whole thing is done and understand how to do it on your own. By the way these patches sound great, nice job!
