Couldn't load pickup availability
For sale: Moog DFAM Drummer From Another Mother analog percussion synthesizer in very good overall condition with a Sonoclast MAFD MIDI controller. These are a ton of fun to play with, and it is very easy to lose track of time while exploring. This one has the Sonoclast MAFD installed, which adds MIDI control of the DFAM's eight sequencer steps, opening up more ways to play and sequence it.
Sale includes DFAM, MAFD, DFAM PSU, MAFD USB power cable, 2 very short patch cables to connect the MAFD to the DFAM, 5 short patch cables, 4 longer (2 ft) patch cables, and the original DFAM side plates (if you want to remove the MAFD), and an extra Sonoclast sideplate.
Note: You must power the DFAM with the 12V power supply, and the MAFD needs USB bus power into the BOTTOM of the MAFD to power the unit (NOT the USB port on top, that is for MIDI if you want to use USB MIDI).
Details below:
MIDI notes select sequencer steps through the MAFD. The pitch of each step is set on the DFAM (the MIDI note just triggers a given step).
The DFAM is in very good condition overall, but has some minor blemishes in the finish (see photos). Please examine all photos carefully, as we have done our best to document the condition.
The Moog DFAM is a fully analog percussion synthesizer built around an 8-step analog sequencer and dual-oscillator voice architecture. It excels at kicks, metallic hits, noisy percussion, aggressive bass movement, and evolving rhythmic textures without presets or menu diving. The patchable layout makes it easy to use on its own or integrate into a larger semi-modular or modular setup.
Sale includes the synth, Sonoclast MAFD MIDI controller, and free shipping to the continental US.
