User Notes for Minimoog® Voyager® Software Update 3.0
I. CHANGES TO OPERATING SYSTEM
The Minimoog Voyager Operating System version 3.0 (V3.0) contains important
and powerful new functions for the instrument. This enhancement requires an
upgrade to both your Voyager hardware and to the V3.0 software.
Here is an overview of the modification and enhancements:
•
V3.0 extends the current single bank of 128 presets to 7 banks of 128
presets for a total of 896 user accessible presets. 768 of the 896 presets
are loaded with Voyager presets from the Rack Mount Edition, Electric
Blue, Anniversary Edition, Performer Edition, Signature Edition, and a bank
made by German synthesist Thomas Wolf. The remainder of the preset
locations are loaded with default presets – blank canvasses for your sonic
creations.
•
V3.0 comes with an enhanced feature that allows the player to transpose
the entire keyboard by up to 2 octaves up or down.
MIDI Enhancements:
•
Allows you to send either 7 or 14 bit resolution CC messages from the
Mod Wheel.
•
Optionally reduces the amount of MIDI data being sent from the Touch
Surface.
(These last two enhancements allow the Voyager to work better with older MIDI
equipment).
There have been a few changes in both the Panel Mode and Master Mode.
Please take note of the changes on the following pages.
