Today we are back with the Moog DFAM. We also have the Arturia BeatStep Pro and Erica Synths Sample Drum to help us with the demo.
Other gear used:
Focusrite Saffire Pro 26
Logic Pro X (added a touch of SilverVerb)
Make Noise Rosie

This is great, I'd not thought about adding the multiple gate patterns between the DFAM sequencer steps. This unlocks some functionality that I'd hoped to gain but wasn't able to accomplish before, thanks!

So you can basically fit any rhythm of gates in between each step of the DFAM sequencer?

@@felix_ennui another thing you can do, if I may, is that you send the gate to ADV Clock instead of trigger. in place of filling, you can keep how the steps sounds as they are designed on the dfam, but you break the equal 1/8 sequence and you decide when they play ;) (p.s. amazing video BTW)

Adds a lot to the dfam. The snare is the weakest part of the DFAM if you ask me.

Cool video, i'm having a hard time making it work though. Everything is wired the same way (except for the erica) but as soon as i connect the BSP, the DFAM sequencer stops working I can get only the kick sound and the dfam red dot that usually goes through the step gets stuck in one position only and doesn't run. Any ideas? Does the Erica does anything besides de hh sound?

@felix_ennui Жыл бұрын
Hey hardminder, thanks for the comment. Yes, Erica is just making the hi hat sound. What do you have plugged into the ADV / CLOCK input on the DFAM? You need some sort of gate signal to advance the sequence to its next step.

@@felix_ennui First of al I really apreciate your reply. I forgot to mention that I copied your setup at 1:37 or so. So I assumed you had drum gate 1 going in your multi to the erica and to the dfam advance. I don't have a multi nor a erica but that shouldn't matter, I sent the gate 1 drectly into ADV/Clock. Am I doing something wrong?

You should be good. The DFAM needs to be armed, if you will. Advance it to step 8 and hit RUN. Nothing should happen. Hit play on the Beatstep Pro and it should start up.

@@felix_ennui Man, honestly, before I asked you this question, I worked on this setup for 3 evenings in a row. When I say my setup is the exact same as yours that's because it is. It's really not that complicated to replicate, there are 3 wires... But somehow it's not working, I really don't understand. I'm not a noob, I.ve been playing and working with wires and mics and amps and midi and everything for 17 years. This modular thing is new though, but still...

Hey, thanks for making this video! 👍🏼 I am thinking about getting the DFAM to use in this sort of setting and maybe even pushing into a few eurorack modules to take the place of the BSP. I did read in a DFAM forum that pairing it with the BSP (or in my case, it would be a BS). That the pitch range of the BS’s is different to the DFAM which has a wider range. Which means you can not trigger lower bass frequencies that the DFAM is capable of when sequencing with the BSP/BS. Just interested whether you found this to be a bummer? 🤔 Hopefully I’m making sense… I’m still learning this modular lingo as I go. Thanks 🤓

Hi Steven, thanks for the comment. I have no experience with the BS, but I've had no trouble triggering bass frequencies using the BSP. I even have another video focusing on such things. No bummers here. Well, I guess a reset in would be nice, perhaps a knob for the vca envelope instead of a switch...

@@felix_ennui If I may intervene here :D the issues with the keystep and the beatstep with moog stuff is related to moog choice for pitch intervals (-5 +5 v) compared to eurorack standard (0-10) , which beatstep also complies with. Basically, anytime you connect a betastep/keystep to DFAM (but I have the same issues with Subharmonicon) you are sending a 0 signal, which is already a +5 compared to the moog cv floor (-5). Concretely, it would be like playing with DFAM sequencer and being only able to tune the pitch knob from noon to the right. You don't have access to the lower frequencies. There is no workaround unless you have eurorack and you buy something like the pico mscaler, which is a voltage translator, so that you can turn BS signal from 0-10 v to -5+5. The only workaround you can apply on moog dfam if you want to control the pitches from BS, is to stay as low as possible with your VCO frequency as well as with your sequencer pitch knobs. Consider that if you turn the sequencer step all to the left and you connect the CV from beatstep, automatically it would be as you move that pitch knob to noon/middle. Hope this clarify

Still loving the DFAM. Recently upgraded to the KeyStep Pro, so that has been getting more use with my modular stuff. The BeatStep Pro is a great sequencer also, just be sure to attenuate them gates if using with the DFAM.
