Announcing a new web site catering to all Moog Voyager owners. It’s called SquareWave: The Voyager Resource. SquareWave is designed to help you get the most out of your Voyager by providing space to exchange patches, organize and share information, and post links.
NOT ANOTHER YAHOO GROUPS WEB SITE!
Actually, it is a Yahoo Groups web site, but SquareWave is different. It’s been customized to meet the needs and interests of Voyager owners. But what really makes it different is that the content is already there. Unlike other Yahoo Group sites, SquareWave is already brimming with content right now, and more is planned.
SquareWave features Voyager patches by Qwave, LWG, Cruel Hoax, BrianG, Monads, and GregAE. Some of these patches also include MP3 sound examples to help place the patch into a sonic context. Most have descriptions of how the Voyager controllers affect the sound, along with suggestions on processing the patch further. And, of course, everyone is welcome to add their own patches as well (Note: Please read the UPLOAD document carefully before you post!).
SquareWave also includes helpful, downloadable information to assist you with sound programming and sound development, troubleshooting, and provide answers to frequently asked Voyager questions. Additionally, you’ll find lists of reference texts, videos and other materials to further enhance the Voyager experience. You’ll also find organized web links to point you to sources of information covering all aspects of Electronic Music.
And there’s also a surprise or two…
NO COMPETITION
SquareWave is not intended to compete with the Moog Music Forums. Instead, its purpose is to compliment the forums by providing capabilities currently not available, namely patch uploads and information consolidation. We expect that all discussion will stay here, with SquareWave adding a few of the missing pieces.
OKAY, SO WHERE IS IT?
You’ll find it here:
http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/Squarewave/
