Moog DFAM Drummer From Another Mother Analogue Percussion Synthesizer

Rhythmic Creation Without Rules

Utilising a unique, hands-on approach to rhythmic generation, DFAM (Drummer From Another Mother) offers up a semi-modular platform for complete sonic experimentation, irrespective of previous synthesizer knowledge. 

Employing an easy-to-use analog sequencer, DFAM features a white noise generator alongside two wide-range analog oscillators, allowing for a wide range of rhythmically focused textures and sounds, spanning the breadth of bass, bells, and deep rhythmic pulsations. A classic Moog ladder filter is present with two selectable modes. Low pass and High pass modes allow for an accentuation and refinement to each sound generated. 

Designed to behave and respond to the individual user, DFAM is an endlessly dynamic and organic rhythm generating experience, and when used with its 24-point modular patchbay, provides exciting and experimental sonic possibilities.
