Voyager: change banks and presets via MIDI

Post by joek1000 » Sun Oct 01, 2017 12:09 am

HI,

I want to change Banks and presets from an external keyboard.

What are the CC00 and CC32 values for changing banks? I don't see it in the MIDI charts.

Thanks,
Joe

I found the answer in some older posts. CC00 = 0. CC32=bank number.

My Nord Stage 2 is overriding the individual bank and program messages with its global bank and program values. Each Nord bank on the front panel selects a Voyager bank. Then individual programs in that Nord bank walk through the programs in the corresponding Voyager bank.

I can probably work around it by either blocking the global send or just putting all the Voyager patches that I want to use on one Bank. Then select that Bank on the Nord and name the programs on that Nord bank to identify the Voyager programs. I'm already controlling several other modules with the Nord and I don't want to make any drastic changes.

Bank A = B0 00 00 B0 20 00 (CC 00 00 CC 32 00)
Bank B = B0 00 00 B0 20 01 (CC 00 00 CC 32 01)
Bank C = B0 00 00 B0 20 02 (CC 00 00 CC 32 02)
Bank D = B0 00 00 B0 20 03 (CC 00 00 CC 32 03)
Bank E = B0 00 00 B0 20 04 (CC 00 00 CC 32 04)
Bank F = B0 00 00 B0 20 05 (CC 00 00 CC 32 05)
Bank G = B0 00 00 B0 20 06 (CC 00 00 CC 32 06)

I couldn't find any info on bank change in the manual and I don't quite understand how to do it with this info. I tried both CC0 and CC32 and chose different values but nothing happened. Could someone help me with it?

Only the part left of the "=" and the part in parentheses is used for non hexadecimal or straight MIDI message data.

Examples:

second line:
Sent CC #00 with value 00 and CC #32 with value 01 to get the first sound in Bank B.

last line:
Sent CC #00 with value 00 and CC #32 with value 06 to get the first sound in Bank G.


Sending CC #00 selects the sound.
Sending CC #32 selects the bank.

And as usual with MIDI and other digital stuff, the count does start with value zero.
keep on turning these Moog knobs

Sequence:
Prodigy * minimoog '79 * Voyager * MF102 * MF103 * MF104z * MP201 * Taurus 3 * Minitaur * Sub Phatty * MF105 * Minimoog 2017+ MUSE * One 16

Hmmmm. For some reason, it doesn't change banks when sending #32. I can control every parameter perfectly except for the banks. Probably, I need to contact Moog to find out what's wrong with the synth. Thank you for helping me!

How can I change banks and preset on Moog Voyager with MSB and LSB value ?
