Vintage, Voyager or Virtual - a comparison test

I fully intend on getting the expander and the cv processor. For now though I’m having fun just exploring all the programmable mod routing possibilities in the EDIT menu.

It’s good to know that CreamWare’s virtual minimoog is modeled after the D and not the Voyager.

By the way… are you a member of VS Planet? I ask because you used a VS2480, which I also own.

Yes, I’ve been on VS Planet since 2001ish.

In all, seven comparison tests were performed, plus a waveform test. You can hear all of the test audio clips here:

The audio files are gone… I would have loved to have heard these results..

The complete “Vintage, Voyager or Virtual” article and audio clips are posted on KnobTweak:

Any chance of getting the test files’? I would really love to hear them (that’s why I signed up :mrgreen: )

Got this error message “The Moog Space section of the site is not currently being supported.”

This is brilliant. I know I’m late to this thread, but bravo.

I’m wondering if you have some decent rules of thumb when it comes to voyager knob positions (or their respective MIDI values) in relation to the Model D. When I try to do similar tests with my voyager and Model D Soft synths, I find it’s really hard to match the Filter/volume attack, decay, etc.

Any tips ?

Thanks again!

My advice would be “use your ears” because the knob positions won’t line up.
Sometimes using visualisation helps, like oscilloscope, frequency analyser or recording into your daw or audio editor and comparing waveforms.

Nice work, Brian and Greg! I applaud your efforts! I also appreciate the additional info on making authentic Minimoog sounds with the Voyager . 19216811.bid
