Minimoog Voyager XL User’s Manual Addendum

Understanding the LFO2 Module and MIDI Implementation

Specifications subject to change without notice

NOTES:

The newly assigned MIDI CHANNEL is not preserved when you power-down your Voyager XL. If
you are not set up to use the default MIDI CHANNEL 1 for your LFO2 module, you will need to
remember to reassign this using CC110 every time you power-up your XL. For this reason, we
recommend always using MIDI CHANNEL 1 for communication with the LFO2 module.

Care must be taken that other MIDI devices on the chain are not also using CC110 for their own
uses. CC110 was chosen because it is a rarely used high number CC so it will not often create
conflicts. If you are having MIDI communication issues with your LFO2 module however and
have other MIDI instruments in the same chain, you may want to determine if this device is
sending CC110 messages.

You can also monitor this by looking at the SYNC on the LFO2 module which indicates MIDI
activity being accepted by the LFO2 module (including MIDI CLOCK). This LED should blink
briefly only when it is handling MIDI messages on the channel it is currently assigned to except
for MIDI CC110. If you are seeing this LED blink even when there are messages that aren’t sent
to the current MIDI channel, you should check to see if something else is sending a CC110
message.
