I’m getting a Voyager at last! Beside myself with excitement. I’d like to know the best way to connect a delay. The Voyager has a left and a right output, but the MF104 has only 1 input. That seems disappointing.
Do I connect just L out to the delay? Seems odd to me…
I use the left out, but the right out has a different characteristic.
One of the nice things about the vx351 is that you can mess with the delay time with the touchpad. It’s nice.
Congrats on your purchase!

Congrats for your new baby 
I’d use the left out since the right is modified by the SPACING parameter. Chek the manual out for details
It you’re using a stereo mixer, you may be able to use an auxiliary send and return to use both channels with the MF104.
Many people use the insert jack on the Voyager to send and return pre-filter.
I run my 104 as well as the entire line of Foogers in this way.
A second way I’ve been doing recently is to run an Aux out of my mixer to the input on the string of Foogers. This allows me to run several different instruments through this FX unit. I can also run both sides of the Voyager output in this way, varying the balance to whatever sounds best.

Hey Stephen, I’m curious to hear what you obtain this way. I’ve always though putting a delay between the Voyager’s mixer and filter set a high constraint on the envelope release parameter, hence not even trying it. Stupid me, should have.
That sounds interesting. I’ll check the manual of the Voyager when it arrives. I was wondering on a slightly different tack - is the Moog Voyager stereo or 2 lots of mono outputs?
What do you mean?
Are outputs 1 and 2 identical?
It is true stereo as long as the filter is in dual lowpass mode.
Actually the signal path duplicates before the filters. Hence -when in dual Lowpass mode- the left output has its filter cutoff set by the knob while the right one has it’s filter cutoff set by the cutoff knob + the spacing knob. The later is kind of a “delta” setting between the two filters.
Consequently, using the left output allows to be sure the spacing parameter won’t bother you.
I tried to hook the 104 up through the mix out/filter in jack before and I didn’t notice anything special about it. I think the limitation there comes from the fact that the oscillators are constantly vibrating and delays shine when you can actually hear the delayed signal. Maybe this method will help fatten up the sound a bit, but a two oscillator patch is still pretty dense on it’s own.
Once I let a buddy of mine try out the 104 and he played these long fast lead phrases on the guitar and the delays were unnoticeable. So I think that delays work best when you include rests to let the echoes do their thing.
This is the actual reason why I haven’t tried, just remembered.
But I will, just to hear it myself.
just get a second 104 
then you can have quadraphonic voyager
Exactly what I did
i wish i could afford to have (at least) one for every instrument, but unfortunately im not Hans Zimmer or Deadmau5 
I was wrong.
Actually, if you use only the left output, you will get both channels summed, meaning that the SPACING knob will allow you to have a second cut off frequency (This can be fun for double resonance peaks). Thus you have to care about this knob, no matter which output-s you use.
