Moog DFAM Jam

Moog's Drummer From Another Mother (DFAM) is one of the finest analog standalone drum machines. Below you'll find a bit of explanation what happens here...

The pitch is connected with the noise level (that's the white cable). You can see the knob position clearly around 1:19. The fifth pitch knob is in the highest position, that's why the noise is loudest at the fifth beat. Whether you hear that white noise of course depends on the low pass filter.

Furthermore the 8 pitch knobs affect VCO 2 which I bring in around 0:42. I then change the amount of the FM synthesis - meaning that instead of playing the "melody" it changes the tone of VCO 1.

Around 1:30 I change the VCO Decay and the VCO 1 EG Amount drastically - that's the funny sound that I use from time to time to make you smile.

Later I combine this with a shortening of the VCA Decay. Around 3:00 I change the tuning of VCO 1 - it's difficult to hit the right tones and I fail slightly, but you get the idea.

Around 3:50 I change one of the pitch knobs and you can hear the impact of this on the noise level.

At 4:20 I change the wave-form of VCO 2 from triangle to square. The rest is repeating these ideas in different combinations.

A last note: When I stop the machine on the first beat, I turn the VCA Decay up to have a nice final tone. I love that bass.
