Now Power up
Turn the Voyager XL power ON. The LCD screen will light up and display an “XL” start-up message. After
a few seconds the start-up screen will disappear and the current preset will appear in the display. The name
of the current preset location (bank and preset number) will appear on the top line and the preset name
will be displayed on the middle line of the LCD screen:
Test for Sound and Set Levels
Play a few notes on the Voyager XL keyboard while turning up the volume of your amplification. Set the
volume to a comfortable listening level.
Start Playing
Use the -1/+1 buttons to scroll through the presets. All preset locations are loaded with sounds from the
factory (128 presets each in 8 banks). There are a total of 1024 preset locations in memory – 896 of which
are user programmable. Note that once a preset is called up, you can tweak the parameters to your liking
using the front panel controls. Any changes made to the current preset will cause the display to change as
shown, with asterisks added to the preset name indicating that the preset has been modified:
If you make changes to a preset and want to return to the original sound, simply press ENTER. You can
toggle between the stored preset and the current edited preset by pressing the EDIT button and selecting
the COMPARE TO PRESET function. This function will allow you to toggle back and forth between the
original preset and the edited preset using the CURSOR button (for more on the COMPARE TO PRESET
function, see page
51 ). If you wish to save your changes, press EDIT and select the SAVE PRESET function
(for more on the SAVE PRESET function, see page 64 ). Any changes made to a preset will be lost if they
are not saved once you change to a new preset.
