Moog Sound Studio: DFAM+Subharmonicon+Mother-32 – DMS Generative (25 Patches)

Description

✋ Welcome to the soundset for the semi-modular system Moog Sound Studio: DFAM + Mother-32 + Subharmonicon.
DMS Generative is a collection of 25 patches. This genre of sound design is highly popular within modular culture, and the Moog Sound Studio offers an excellent feature set to explore it.

🎛 Controlled chaos and randomness, probability, non-repetitiveness, tempo shifts, pattern uniqueness, the alternation of short and long sounds, unexpected changes, silence and density, harmonic and FX-like tones, and glitchy bursts throughout sequences — all of these elements are part of the soundset.

🎚 Generative timbres can serve as a strong addition to, or the main element of, ambient or techno tracks, jams, and performances. You can also record fragments into your DAW or sampler, slice them into one-shots or loops, and obtain unique material for further processing.

📚 This soundset is included in the Moog Sound Studio GENERATIVE BUNDLE with a 25% discount.

🕹 The key idea behind the soundset is a high level of interconnection. In this patchbook, the timbres of the synths are intertwined — they cannot exist independently:

🔹 They modulate each other with LFOs and envelopes.
🔹 A sequence from one synth may change parameters on another.
🔹 Trigger interactions, clock/rhythm, and run/stop modulations break predictable patterns.
🔹 Audio signals from VCOs may be used as modulation sources to create harmonies, intervals, or wild experimental inharmonic tones.
🔹 Alternatively, they can be used as audio sources routed into another synth to be processed through its unique filter and envelope — giving the signal a “second life.”
DFAM, M32, and SUBH each play distinct and defined roles — it’s not a sound mess, but a tightly integrated system where the synths work in close cooperation.

📔 The soundset is presented in PDF format. Each page includes notes explaining how the patch works, which parameters are worth tweaking during playback, and how to develop the timbre during a performance.

If you carefully follow the settings and experiment with the suggestions in the notes, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the synths and uncover their full potential.

To recreate these patches, you’ll need up to 20 patch cables.
📻 Audio examples for all patches are included in the soundset folder, presented in four versions: DFAM only, Mother-32 only, Subharmonicon only, and all together.

💡 The soundset doesn’t contain Mother-32 patterns. There’s currently no way to export them, so it’s impossible to share the exact same sequences from my examples. However, this isn’t really a problem, as even simple sequences can evolve into complex ones through creative patching. You can pre-program your own patterns or use ones already saved on your synth.

I added pads to the video demo to place the presets in a musical context. These pads are not included in the soundset.
