OK. the Voyager showed up today and has some issues.
First the right output has a spitty noise in it like a bad transistor.
The real issue is using the triangle waveform. Some notes have a hiss that jumps up 20-30 db. This can't be right can it? All three oscillators do the same thing.
I guess a call to Moog service is in order to figure out if the synth will have to be returned.
Crap!

Well, I am embarrassed but relieved to say the Voyager is fine.
It turns out the noise was not coming from the Moog, but from my Wavedrum. The Moog was making the head vibrate on certain notes and it was triggering a white noise kind of patch.
I didn't realize anything was active in the mixer other than the Moog, but figured it out after checking with headphones and not hearing the noise.
Sheesh...what a loser!

I am happy for you that it turned out positive.....nothing worrying then buying a new synth and thinking that it's already broken...

Beautiful setup! And that Voyager looks really nice! Is that a ribbon controller on the Voyager?

Yes. It is part of the Kurzweil Expression Mate, no longer in production. It includes the ribbon, three arpeggiators, a breath control interface and inputs for a couple of pedals and outputs all as assignable MIDI controllers-very nice!
I have to admit, after 35 years of playing, I have my dream studio.
