Moog Drummer From Another Mother (DFAM) Percussion Synthesizer

If this can't light the creative fire you need then nothing will. Real deal AUTHENTIC ANALOGUE DRUM CREATION. From the outer limits of Pluto to the abstract of your wildest starting point. This thing is truly limitless. But it won't save hours of design. TRUE analogue, is alive, active, unstable and organic. Find your bliss, then capture it. Chances are you'll never create the same thing twice from scratch… Which is why we buy these things. It's alive. For true analogue sounds, rhythm and cycles, no one does it better. You won't regret this one, unless you don't know what you're looking for. Enjoy enjoy enjoy!! I loose myself in this thing every time within ten minutes…. I'm somewhere I love to be, but had no idea I'd end up there before I started. All I know is it's amazing every time and never the same.

This DFAM is the coolest instrument I've ever bought. I'm a guitarist by nature and just dove into electronic music and let me tell you. This thing is AMAZING. I recommend to anyone who is even thinking about getting one to just do it. I haven't regretted one bit of my decision. Analog is simply the best

Great MOOG sound - immense sound design capabilities with the patch cables and other kit!

Works great in my synth worklab

I bought this particularly for adding some dirt to my techno productions. I use it with the Roland TR-09 and TR-08, boutique versions of the 909 & 808. After playing around with it I was pleasantly surprised that it can do more than one may think. You can get some magnificently weird and spacey sounds, including some similar to the TB-303 acid resonance. It does seem to produce harmonic content when using it for sounds other than percussion. The only downfall is that you won't know what key it is by looking at the unit itself. You would have to figure it out by ear or using a plugin. You also can't store your sounds or patterns, though they have a downloadable PDF on there Moog site that allows you to draw in your settings. There is also no midi control. You can sync the DFAM's clock to another midi-capable device via a 3/8" mono cable and control tempo that way. When I'm recording I just record the whole audio while I'm jamming around, then go back and chop it up. All in all, if midi playback isn't a must for you, it's a great addition. Definitely not a recommendation as your first piece of gear.

I took this out of my Eurorack because it takes up too much space for the features offered. Sounds ok, but limited, and dialing in specific sounds is more complex than with some other modules. It definitely has a certain character that may also not offer as much tweakability as one would expect in a unit this large and expensive. Compared to usual Moog build quality, they skimped out a fair amount on the sequencer pots, which was disappointing.
