Strange to say that out of the box it sounds better than any of my elektrons. At least for the sound im always after. Might have to look more into semi-modular stuff like 0-coast etc. No sure about Mother 32 as all the demos ive found on youtube all sound to fluffy and deep. No very techno/industrial-ish.

Received them today. The last 4 hours were extremely fun and impressive.
The sound is just as awesome as I imagined it to be.
And the build quality is outstanding

Last week I built myself a 3 tier rack stand at work for the 2 Mothers and the DFAM. Missus says Iâm looking like mad scientist when noodling on that wall of knobs ha ha.
Have fun with moogâŚ

So aphexy. Great job. Assignable random to tempo?

Thanks man, aphexy has to be good
No the assignable output is not used. The velocity of the dfam is patched into the hold of the mother.
And the dfam advance clock is triggered by gates from the A4 sequencer. Thatâs pretty fun. If you set uneven steps on the A4 the dfam sequence always shifts and never really repeats

Yeah this is super fun with the TR-8S. Changing the active gate steps in the sequencer is a bit like playing with the arpeggiator on the Monomachine.

I realised most of the time I use the DFAM as a sort of complex oscillator/cool sequencer combo to create FM/Bells/Acid tones but yesterday I needed toms and remembered how great it is at it. I love the sound of the noise in this thing, very punchy and it makes for a great tribal feeling when you combine it with other percussion. So hereâs the result : DFAM, Lyra 8 and Modular burned in the Analog Heat :

Nice, but a bit overpriced at 200?
Whenever I see âfamily toolâ Iâm vaguely reminded of âfamily clothâ 
looks interesting
Hi! I have set A4 to send CV clock to DFAM but I can´t get it to restart the seq from step 1 as A4 naturally does. If i push stop in step 5, then when restarted it will start from step 6.
Is this happening to anyone else? i would like it to restart on every play. Any help? Thanks!
The dfam doesnât reset.
you have to set it manually to step 8 before you start the A4.
Many complained about this behaviourâŚ
Maybe there are patching workarounds but I donât know them. In the muffwiggler dfam thread this is discussed a lot

The DFAM sequencer is analogue, it doesnt know where â1â is. It only knows âthe next stepâ. It does not understand the start and stop transport controls of the A4 sequencer that tells the A4 to start at step 1. It requires a control voltage/pulse to tell the sequencer to advance to the next step.
So if you want the DFAM sequencer to play from step 1, first you must manually place the sequencer on step 8, then when it recieves a signal, it will advance to the next step, being step 1.
