VCO 1 EG AMOUNT / VCO 2 EG AMOUNT
This pair of knobs determines how much effect the VCO Envelope Generator
will have on the Pitch of Oscillator 1 and Oscillator 2, respectively. All AMOUNT
knobs on DFAM are bipolar, meaning that they have both positive (+) and
negative () modulation values available.
CENTER POSITION
No Envelope is applied to the Pitch of the Oscillator and its Frequency
remains steady.
(+) AMOUNT
As the VCO EG AMOUNT knob is rotated to the right of center, more Envelope
Modulation is applied to the Pitch of the Oscillator. This results in larger
jumps or spikes in pitch as each note is played, creating sounds that may be
perceived as harder hitting, more aggressive or exaggerated.
NOTE: The VCO DECAY knob will determine how quickly the jump, or spike
in pitch falls back to its original note.
(-) AMOUNT
As the VCO EG AMOUNT knob is rotated to the left of center, negative Envelope Modulation is applied
to the Pitch of the Oscillator. This results in dips or large drops in pitch as each note is played, creating
sounds that may be perceived as boingy or somewhat videogame-esque in character.
NOTE: The VCO DECAY knob will determine how quickly the drop, or dip, in pitch rises back to its
original note.
TIP: Using lower VCO EG AMOUNT values will result in more natural percussion sounds, while larger
values will result in more exaggerated and extreme sounds.
MIXER
In addition to Level knobs for VCO 1 and VCO 2, your Drummer From Another Mothers Mixer also
includes a Level knob for its built-in White Noise Generator, which is useful for creating snare drums
and high-hats, and also for adding depth and attack to pitched percussion sounds.
NOTE: Your DFAM is an all-analog instrument. Varying levels in the Mixer section will have an effect on
the overall sound. Lower levels will result in increased headroom and dynamics, while higher levels will
produce a more aggressive and clipped sound.
VCO 1 LEVEL
Use this knob to set the level of Oscillator 1.
NOTE: The Square Wave will be perceived as louder than the Triangle Wave.
This is due to differences in harmonic content and is completely normal.
