I wanted to share my latest Max for Live creation, the Voyager XL MIDI Controller. This is a derivative work of MOSCO Moog Voyager (Max for Live Voyager MIDI controller) adapted to work with the Voyager XL.
This extends the original device as follows:
- All LFO2 parameters for the XL, many of which are only available through MIDI
- Full Push 2 mapping
- Moog-styled XL interface
- Minor bugfixes in parameter names
I also updated the patcher layout for easier debugging and reverse engineering.
TESTED ONLY IN LIVE 10.0.6 WITH MAX 8.0.2! This may not work with Live 9 or Max 7.
The Voyager XL MIDI Controller can be found for free at maxforlive.com at the link below.

that is pretty cool!
thx for posting…I do not use any of that yet, but who knows I may in the future
cheers
I just updated this to version 1.1 to fix some bugs. I also added more documentation on the M4L page for the setup.
Tested:
- 10.1.1 with Max 8.0.4
- Not compatible with Live 8, may not work with Live 9
V1.1 Updates:
- Fixed CC values for some controls
- Cleaned up patchers to ensure portability/compatibility
I will create more videos towards the end of the year, but here are some ways I’m using the controller now:
- Chords via automation of OSC2 and OSC3 pitch
- More LFOs (or any other modulation, especially multi-stage function generators) [subject to MIDI bus saturation]
- Sequenced Sync/FM on/off and modulator pitch
- Panning automation
- MIDI-to-CV via the patch panel
wicked, thanks!
still not using MIDI with the XL, but I like the access to all the LFO2 modes
quick question: if you are not actually modulating LFO2 via MIDI, then there is no issue of saturating MIDI bus, when running multiple LFO2’s as simultaneous modulators, correct?
