"Zon" Preset Help

Grey Rocker · Post by **Grey Rocker** » Thu Aug 05, 2004 12:03 pm

Hello fellow users, Could I get some help for a new Voyager rookie. I just bought an Anniversary Voyager and was trying to locate the "Zon" presets. I'm not sure I understand if they are on my machine, or if they need to be downloaded? Could someone help me out? Thanks........

Hello fellow rookie. The AE has a different bank of presets to the performer.
check your manual's list against the manual on this site, which, last time I looked, had Zon's stuff on it.

Downloads are not something I've tried, but I think that the Zon stuff should be downloadable from this site.Other topics in this forum cover the pleasures and perils of downloading, Sysex, preferred freeware etc. Almost every contributor here knows more than me!!

Good Luck.

The "Zon" presets can be downloaded from the Moog site. Look under either Signature or Performer Edition and they are in the Software section associated with each.

Thanks for the help. I did verify with Moog that the Zon presets are on the AE. If you reset to factory settings, the Zon's will be loaded and you will lose the AE presets. I might try some downloading later when I become more familiar with the Voyager......Mike

Does this mean the AE is holding 256 presets ie two banks of 128 ? If you reset to Zon can you reset again to restore the AE presets?

Does the OS revert to an earlier version when you reset to Zon?

I know that maybe Moog didn't give you the answers, if not, please post how you get on if you choose to go Zon.Thanks.

Here is what Steve Dunnington from Moog wrote me: So as I understand this, yes there must be 2 banks of presets in the AE. Hope this helps........Mike

Michael -
If you read in the AE user's manual p.42 - it describes the process to get Zon's sounds in your instrument without MIDI - It will erase the AE bank in your Voyager. if you want the AE bank back in the Voyager you have to load it through MIDI (SysEx) -
(p.40 Receive Presets) - Go to the AE Voyager page and click on the "Software" link next to the picture of the AE Voyager. You'll see files for download...

Thanks Mike. So going Zon is easy , going back you need pc, Sysex etc....I thought that I had read the manual!!!!!
Early days for me, I don't have Sysex etc, but will review matters once the library software is available and there is some feedback on this site.
