This video is designed to give a basic and thorough overview of the Moog DFAM (Drummer from another Mother). The DFAM is a complex, yet simple, percussive synth that can be very hard to get the hang of. This series breaks down the complexities of the DFAM into small and manageable chunks. By the end of the series, you'll have a strong understanding of each part of the DFAM and how it contributes to the overall sound as well as how it interacts with the other parts. Additionally, the videos will cover how to use the patchbay and give helpful pairing tips so you can build your own DFAM patches.
As a bonus - there are some videos on building patches from scratch and videos covering completed patches for you to use.
There are more resources on my Patreon Page including a full color eBook of DFAM patches with links to tutorial videos. The eBook will be updated regularly with new patches and tips.

DFAM was the first addition to the Mother-32 family of synthesizers and presents an expressive hands-on approach to percussive pattern creation. It requires no patching, and absolutely no experience is needed for human-beings of any age to quickly begin synthesizing new and unique rhythmic compositions.
Moog Sound Studio: Mother-32 & DFAM & Subharmonicon are semi-modular synthesizers and accessories created to provide users with all the equipment, cables, accessories, and educational tools needed to enter the world of analog synthesis for the first time or to continue to explore sound in an immersive new way. All you need is your own headphones or personal speaker and you’re ready to get started!
The development of this complete sonic exploration station that is Moog Sound Studio is a direct response to years of feedback from the growing synthesizer community. The all-in-one solution for beginning or continuing a journey in professional sound design includes everything the creator needs for an immersive, self-guided experience from any home or studio.
This powerful trio of semi-modular synths are perfect for your first foray into modular or your next steps into professional sound design and production. Moog Sound Studio offers the ultimate experience of sonic power and versatility via all three Mother ecosystem semi-modular analog synthesizers. Along with the included Mother-32, DFAM, and Subharmonicon synthesizers, this Moog Sound Studio bundle includes an audio mixer and power distribution hub, a three-tier rack mount kit with matching protective cover, patch cables, a patch cable organizer, guided exercises and patches, a unique card game for generating novel patches, custom artwork designed exclusively for Moog Sound Studio owners, and plenty of creative inspiration.
Mother-32 Analog Synthesizer

Man, explaining the cutoff’s apparent absence was super helpful. Just got the DFAM and was like, “oh no. You’re kidding me. There’s no patching into the cutoff?!” Whew. Makes sense now.

@@braintree56 I have the most fun with the DFAM. Because of your video with Pamela's Pro, I hooked up my keystep to it, making it a synth voice + perc. AMAZING! Adding my TR-8, and it has been super fun. Pamela's is on my list now. At the top.

The M32 patchbay is what got me hooked for life on modular, so I was looking forward to this segment of the DFAM tutorial :) to me it feels like one could spend a lifetime simply trying to master these 24 patchpoints and their interactions, to say nothing of the infinite connections with a larger Eurorack system so grateful you took the time to make this videos!

I feel like the run/stop input could do with its own video. It is like a latch control and only runs the sequencer when getting a high gate. If I remember correctly feeding ext clock to the adv/clock input and then feeding a gate to start/stop makes it change from internal to external clock (or something like that) I messed around with it a few months ago and got some cool timing stuff going on
@braintree56
@braintree56 Год назад
I think you're right. Future video idea! :) Since I put these videos out, I keep thinking about topics that could use their own video. Run/Stop isn't one that I've explored too much. I'm going to have to do some exploring. Thanks for the tip.

Long shot question: Do you know if its possible to sequence DFAMs two VCOs independently and have one as a kick and one as a snare or high hat, using an external sequencer (i.e., I have a steppy)?
@braintree56
@braintree56 8 месяцев назад
Not really because they share the same envelopes... So you wouldn't be able to trigger them separately...
@aenamabag
@aenamabag 8 месяцев назад
@@braintree56 I've yet to try it, but I have been told of a clever way to do something similar - "The DFAM has direct audio outputs for oscillator 1 and 2, and also the main output at the back. Turn down the volume for oscillator 1 and 2, and turn up the noise volume. Turn up the volume for the main output. The main output will now only have noise (going through envelope, filter and modulation), whereas the 2 individual oscillator outputs will be "pure" outputs, bypassing all modulation etc.The noise osc can still be shaped with the filter & envelope, while not affecting the direct outputs of VCOs 1 & 2 (which is where you need a VCA or whatever to shape the sound separately)". I'll be giving this a shot tomorrow.
@braintree56
@braintree56 8 месяцев назад
Oh yeah - you could definitely do that! It might be a bit of an inefficient workaround though. You're bypassing everything so you would need to set up an entire voice separate. You would need at least three additional envelopes (VCO, FILTER, VCA), a filter, and something to trigger everything with. If you're going to go that route, I would go the other way around and add noise to all those modules (either by using the Mother's noise or adding a noise module) and use the DFAM for the bass. That way you'd need one less envelope. Alternatively - you could just get a Snare or Hi-Hat module and free up those modules. But this is the fun of modular!!! Have at it - you never know what will happen. Let me know how it goes. @@aenamabag

@braintree56
@braintree56 6 месяцев назад
@@avefuqua I think I was doing that because I didn't want the sequencer to move so I could explain things. If you want it to trigger without having the sequencer move, then you can patch into the Trigger in. If you want to use the sequencer, then the Adv is correct! I've got tons of videos on all three! :) and patchbooks on my Patreon page. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-lGB2UxenKMg.html
