Voyager OS User’s Manual - The Basics
Congratulations! You now own the Minimoog Voyager Old School, a successor to the synthesizer that Sonic State named the
number one synth of all time: the Minimoog Model D. A descendant of the original Minimoog, the Voyager Old School is an
‘instant classic’ that is destined to become another revered piece of synthesizer history, and it is truly yours!
We are so pleased to bring this product to you, and expect it to give you a lifetime of musical satisfaction. Of course, all
of the credit goes to Bob Moog, to whose specifi cations we still build instruments everyday. The release of the Voyager
Old School synthesizer pays homage to Bob as well as to the classic Model D Minimoog. The Old School has the analog
sound engine of the original Voyager, but without the digital elements of patch storage and MIDI control. It recaptures the
directness and simplicity of the Model D, but adds extended modulation and Control Voltage interface capabilities. If you
are a long time Minimoog player or have always wanted an original Model D, the Voyager Old School is the perfect solution
for you. For those looking for a full-featured centerpiece for their modular synth rig or for anyone craving a direct, hands-on
connection to their musical creativity, I believe you will fi nd all of that and more with this exciting new product.
Before you power up and start exploring your new Voyager Old School, let me offer two brief reminders. First, please
register your beautiful new instrument via the Moog Music web site www.moogmusic.com (alternatively you can mail in the
included warranty card), and let us know what you think in the ‘Comments’ section. We value every response that comes
to us through our warranty registration program. Second, start playing! And once you do, promise yourself you will go back
and read this User’s Manual. It was created to give you a complete understanding of how the Voyager Old School operates
and offers helpful suggestions for getting the most from the instrument.
Finally, thank you for sharing your hard earned dollars, euros, sterling, or rupiahs with us. We never take that for granted
and we want to encourage you to contact us for any reason - hopefully it will be to simply say “I love this machine.”
And, if you are ever near Asheville, N.C. USA, please come by the Moog factory. We’d love to see you!
Warm Regards,
Mike Adams
