Yet Another Voyager Mod

After 23 + years this mod makes that useless FM switch taking up valuable front panel real state useful. The stock Voyager (yours) FM switch brings a new type of FM.; Linear? Exponential? No... it's Bilevel FM - on or off. And it sounds like CRAP! No control over the VCO3 modulator which is half the ...

Voyager Gold Edition II

Thought I'd share my version of the Voyager "Gold" edition that offers additional functions
and improved sound over its predecessor's gaudy glitter.

Re: Minimoog Model D Reissue Sticky Key Issue

Hi-

Ummagumma just emailed me stating he’s currently locked out of the forum (login issue). He will get back to you once the issue is resolved.

Re: Matriarch as MIDI controller - Sustain Pedal Issues

Also, whether using a pedal via midi or one connected directly, sustaining a Matriarch sound only works with Keyboard Local On.

As an aside you still can't control the MW CV via MIDI.

Re: Voyager Filter Spacing double LP mode

Yow - a lot of confusion and bad info here, but for a good reason.

This left/right channel nomenclature is not helping so lets start with...

Filter A: Right channel
Filter B: Left channel

This is per the user manual and matches the schematics. It assumes that your Voyager is wired correctly. I ...

Another Voyager Modification; Waveform Modulation Independence

I just completed another Voyager modification that separates out the waveform modulation and allows for selection of which VCO waveform is modulated and which is not. There are 3 modulation source signals (Mod Wheel Bus, Pedal Bus and external CV jack) connected to all 3 VCO waveform circuits. The ...

Voyager Mod Bus Programmable Shaping Question

The user manual indicates that the Hi & Low Offset parameters work with any programmable source.


The Fixed Value parameter is an offset voltage that can be used by itself or added to one of the shaping sources. Fixed Value has a course adjustment labeled ‘HIGH’ and a fine adjustment labeled ‘LOW ...

Re: Can't get support from Moog

Admittedly I’m totally reaching here but Moog’s near silence for better than a year smells like a change of ownership in progress. Perhaps a hiring freeze is in place with explicit direction by the potential parent company to not disclose any information that may influence the value of the company ...

Re: Voyager HP FIlter? I Think Not!

I've made a couple more revisions (now up to rev C) with my "HP filter" modification. Hopefully this demo video is a bit clearer as to what this is all about.

Re: Voyager Bug?


I would not say it's a bug - it is a function:
in category mode you can jump to the next preset with the same category when you hit ENTER two times.
You can step backwards when you press and hold ENTER and hit the CURSOR. You can see right arrows for forewards jumps and the left arrows for ...

Voyager Bug?

18 years in and I believe I have uncovered a bug. Under Panel edit mode If you select "Category" instead of "Help" and then exit panel edit mode pressing ENTER multiple times changes bank and or program locally (non-midi). I don't see any logical pattern to it but it is consistent.

I think I must ...

Re: Voyager HP FIlter? I Think Not!

Thanks again Umma. I did have to go back in and re calibrate this morning after noticing the modified HP/LP mode was much lower in overall amplitude than the other 3 modes. I had gone a bit overboard with attempting to squelch those lower frequencies calibrating at a very high resonance setting ...

Re: Voyager HP FIlter? I Think Not!

Some of us were led to believe it was Bob Moog who was "responsible" for the sound engine, i.e the analog circuitry. If you know differently I'd love to know who that was. Or better yet send him a link to this thread.

Attempting to contain my geek enthusiasm I'll just give a quick update.
