Will Voyager RME and VX351 work as a MIDI to CV convertor

Will Voyager RME and VX351 work as a MIDI to CV convertor when a MIDI keyboard is plugged in to it?

I already own a Doepfer MIDI to CV for my older analog synths, a Voyager RME and the VX352. However an additional MIDI to VC/Gate convertor would be useful if this would work with the VX351.

Thanks Dave

Yes, an RME and VX-351 can be used for this - in fact, it may be the most expensive MIDI/CV converter on the planet.

yeah I use it w/ my RME and MF-107 for a 4 osc synth. You can also mix pitch bend settings w/ a cp-251 so that when you pitch bend your RME from your midi controller, the mf-107 osc will pitch bend the same amount!

I use my Voyager as a MIDI to CV converter alot. I use the Nord G2 as a crazy sequencer, because it has Multiplexers with X-fade. Using that CV to control other things like the moogers is great!

If you have the MF-102 Ring Modulator, you can do the same thing. Although the oscillator in the '107 is more versatile, the carrier oscillator in the '102 will also provide a 4th osc for an RME or Voyager keyboard.

I do this alot with the 102. Actually, it is one of my favorite features of the RM.
It sounds awasome.

aye, i have one!

the 102 doesn't seem to track as well though, unless i get a cp-251 involved; even then usually it falls apart after an octave max. not bad for bass, though.

the 102 tracks just fine, just remember its linear (hz/v) not exponential (oct/v) so you have to compensate with an attenuator.
The 'lord of the ring mod' document on moogspace has all the gory details. in a nutshell: pitch through attenuator set at about 7 then experement going up and down octaves until it pitch tracks properly.

i use my 102 as a 4th oscillator all the time and its pretty nice even though it only outputs one waveform (triangle)
would be nice to get a freq box for the extra waveforms, sync, fm, etc..... maybe santas elves will make me one next xmas

Check out the "Lord of the Ring (Modulator)" article for more on setting up and using the RM as a fourth oscillator or a tracking modulator. Find it here:

You don't need a CP-251 for this.

Man that is a fabulous article!
