Moogs New Drummer From Another Mother DFAM

Moog today announced the DFAM - the second in Mother in the series - its a semi modular analog percussion synthesizer. Although it does feature two analog oscialltors and a Hpass.lowpass ladder filter.

Initially introduced as the VIP DIY workshop from 2017's Moogfest workshops, as with the Werkstat, it has now become a thing.
