Moog DFAM
Semi Modular Analog Percussion Synthesizer
The Moog DFAM ‘Drummer from Another Mother' is a semi modular analogue percussion synthesizer. As the first extension of the Moog Eco system the DFAM presents itself as an expressive drum synthesizer for creative percussion patterns and rhythms. Thanks to intuitive operation, rhythmic compositions can be made by people of all ages with no previous experience.
Flexible Sound Generation
Driven by an analogue sequencer, DFAM´s sounds are based on a white noise generator and 2x analogue oscillators with a wide pitch range, which can be effortlessly faded between rhythmic beats, reverberant basses and lingering bell sounds. The enormous potential of this instrument was realised through research and space experimentation.
Classic Moog Low/High-Pass Filter
DFAM's distinctive voice is shaped by a classic Moog Ladder filter, in 2x selectable modes:
Low pass mode gives every sound a sonorous punch with spatial depth.
High pass mode opens the door to natural percussion sounds with sharp and sonorous accents.
3x Envelopes for Vivid Sound Design
DFAM behaves almost like a living organism that reacts differently to individual events. Three dedicated envelopes dynamically work with the sequencer to create breathing drums, evolving industrial sounds, total chaos or restrained sounds with a twist of a button.
Patch-Bay for Bizarre Sounds and for Eurorack Integration
New sounds or strange patterns can be created via the modular 24-point patchbay. DFAM can also be perfectly integrated into modular Eurorack synthesizers.
The main features of the Moog DFAM include:
Semi-Modular Analogue Percussion Synthesizer
Analogue Sound Generation
2x Oscillators with Triangle & Square Waveforms

Really fun to play and experiment with that thing! Moog build quality and sound due to among others their famous filter. And it is also a good introduction to modular system thanks to the modular patchbay.
I’m loving and also not loving it in equal measure. I bought this and the Mother 32 together. It’s strength seems to be in more industrial sounds and as you play around it almost leads you toward the grittier end of things . You can get really insane on it but I’m getting the best results using it in parallel with another drum machine and using it to add depth to the other machine rather than the DFAM as the primary drum source. You can sit and just at it tweak for hours without realising where the time has gone.
I won’t be following the commonly offered suggestion of having two of them working together but I won’t be getting rid of it either, it’s definitely something special.
If you are into harder techno and experimental stuff then trust me when I say you need this!
