Patching
Section titled “Patching”Connect your clock source or square LFO to din and connect cv1 to DFAM’s ADV/CLOCK input.
Optionally, connect a reset source to ain to automatically reset EuroPi and DFAM (e.g. a
clock-stop signal from Pam's Workout).
Preparing DFAM
Section titled “Preparing DFAM”Patch EuroPi and DFAM as described above.
Manually advance DFAM so the last sequence LED is illuminated. Then start DFAM by pressing the
Start/Stop button. DFAM will now automatically advance every time a pulse is sent from cv1 of
EuroPi.
A Note on DFAM’s Sequencer
Section titled “A Note on DFAM’s Sequencer”When using DFAM Controller with a pattern length that is not 8, DFAM will skip steps
between length - 1 and 7; this is to say, the last Velocity and Pitch knobs on DFAM’s
sequencer will always control the last element of the sequence.
For example, if you only want a 5-step sequence, you should set DFAM’s 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 knobs, not 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
