Ultra basic question -- categories
Just got my Voyager Performer ed, already LOVE it... I used to have an original MiniMoog Model D, and it really feels great to have a Moog again. One basic question: The patches are "categorized", but I can't figure out, nor can I find anywhere, any reference to how you might search or browse through patches within a single category. Is this even possible on the Voyager ? If so, I'm sure it's easy--once you know the trick of course.

Hi Marc,
Congrats on the Vger Performer, and welcome to the club!
Regarding your question, the Voyager offers no way to browse through the patches of a single sound category.
If you have the software Editor, however, you can easily dump all six sound banks and sort them by category, giving you the same functionality (albeit with a computer attached).
Sorry I can't give you a better answer. FWIW, the categories feature was just implemented in version 3.2 of the OS, which was released just a few months ago. Amongst other things, OS3.2 incorporates some user-requested features. Perhaps a single category browse feature could be added in a future revision.
