UPPER PANEL TOUR:
From right to left, the CV OUTPUT section provides 20 Control Voltage and Gate outputs generated
by the Voyager XL components. Next to that is the MULT (Multiple) section that provides three 4-way
multiples. Each 4-way Mult is powered, meaning that the top-most jack (the jack with the white ring) will
power a standard Expression Pedal like the Moog EP-2. Directly beneath the MULT section are the Ribbon
Controller CV and GATE output jacks. To the right of that is the CV INPUT section that provides 14
Control Voltage and Gate inputs to the Voyager XL.
LOWER PANEL TOUR:
From right to left, the ATTENATORS section provides 2 Attenuators with AMOUNT and OFFSET controls.
Next to that is a FOUR-INPUT MIXER that provides four CV inputs (two powered/two unpowered) with
normal and inverted outputs. To the right of that is the LAG PROCESSOR, which provides controls for
slowing down rapidly changing waveforms. Next to that is LFO 2, which provides a secondary LFO function
featuring a selection of waveforms, adjustable rate control, normal and inverted outputs, and expanded
operation via MIDI.
K – Modular Patch Panel
Located on the far left of the Voy-
ager XL , the Modular Patch Panel
is the functional equivalent of what
you might find on a modular synthe-
sizer, with patch points conveniently
grouped to keep all the related input
and output functions neatly together.
The upper panel features jacks
for specific Voyager XL CV inputs
and outputs, while the lower panel
provides general CV processing
functions. Together, the two sections
provide a wealth of CV real-time
performance options that allow you
to treat the Voyager XL just like a
modular synth.
Two important principles to keep in mind as you create routings with the
Patch Panel:
1. A source (output) always goes to a destination (input).
2. The MULT should not be used as a mixer - never apply more than one CV
source (output) to a Mult. Combining two or more CV’s in a Mult can cause
them to add together in a way that can be damaging! If you wish to combine
several CV’s, use the CV Mixer.
