Can I use the Voyager XL to control other synths?

Post by ahagerty » Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:44 am

Hi

I am keen to get into modular synths and are pondering buying the XL. (I saved long and hard for a Select and now have just enough for the XL!).

I was wondering if someone can tell me what control the Voyager XL would give me over some of my older analogue synths with CV inputs.
For example, I have a Pro One, which has Filter CV IN and CV IN. Does this mean I could use the XL's LFOs to modulate the filter on the Pro One, or even do something more interesting than that?

Would the XLs modulation panel allow me to make sounds on the Pro One I couldnt normaly make?

Thanks in advance.

Andy

The answer to your questions is YES.

The XL has all kinds of voltage sources and destinations as well. THe only thing to check is to make sure your voltages are compatible with those that the Voyager is capable of sending and receiving.
