Looking for ideas on creating a Jaw Harp patch for the Voyager, ala PT's Join Together.

Thanks in advance.

IMHO, in order to produce a semi-convincing Jaw Harp sound on a Voyager, you need a single oscillator with relatively narrow pulse waveform, with a sharp attack, short decay to lower sustain level, and medium-long release VCA envelope.
The key to the sound would be to use both of Voyagers filters in series, but in the Highpass/Lowpass mode, creating a bandpass filter and adjusting it for relatively high resonance, that will modulate the harmonics content either by hand (moving the cutoff knob) or some other controller (mod wheel or better yet a foot pedal) and keep the cutoff frequency in the 500Hz to 3KHz range. It won't be a perfect emulation, since you'd need more than simply a bandpass filter for that, which the Voyager doesn't offer.

My two cents on it...
