I have been sequencing my EB with my motif es6. Everything has worked out fine until tonight. The moog was drifting in and out of tune with the rest of the song. It was out inconsistently about a quarter turn on the fine tune knob depending on the section of the song. I’m trying to figure out if I’m doing something wrong because I would like set it and forget it. Usually the voyager takes a few minutes to stabilize, that’s, fine, but this is a bit ridiculous. I’m very content to accomodate some tuning here and there because the sound is perfect. It just needs to be in tune. Anyone have any suggestions? Oh yeah, I registered months ago and never got my free sticker as promised or any affirmation of the registry, anyone?..? sorry about the bitch session, I just want it to work so I’m not worried mid-set.

Maybe some unwanted CCs are detuning the Moog?
try this:

play your track and stop the sequencer when the Voyager is out off tune.
Then disconect the Midi from the Moog.
Play a note. Is if off or not?
If yes, then switch the Moog off and on again after 3 secs.
Is it now in tune?

If yes, then it is just some unwanted data detuning the Moog. Check the controller and pitchbend on the Midi port to the Moog.

Thanks for the suggestion till. I’ll try that as soon as I can.

Yes and bear in mind you might have pot mapping set to modulate pitch in some way.
I’m sure you already thought of this but if not check it out.
