Voyager User’s Manual - The Basics
In a perfect world, everyone would read the User’s Manual from cover to cover before connecting and
playing their new instrument. For those of you who don’t live in a perfect world and can’t wait to play your
new synthesizer (completely understandable!), the following should get you set up and running quickly.
We encourage you to read the entire manual at some point to learn more about the
instrument and gain a better understanding of what you can do with the Voyager.
Check the contents in the shipping carton
The Voyager is shipped with the following items:
1. The Voyager Synthesizer (Keyboard or RME)
2. Power cord
3. User’s Manual
4. Warranty registration card
5. Rack screws (RME only)
What you will need
In addition to the Voyager and provided accessories, you will need:
1. A stand or table sufficient to support the Voyager
2. A 1⁄4” instrument cable (for mono) or two 1/4” instrument cables (for stereo) and an
amplifier, or a pair of headphones
3. A properly wired AC outlet.
If you have the Voyager Rack Mount Edition (RME), you will also need:
1. A MIDI controller, or a computer with a MIDI interface and MIDI sequencing software.
2. A MIDI cable for connection to the MIDI Out of the MIDI controlling device that
will be used to play the RME.
Set up
Make sure you have an adequate place to set it up. You will need a sturdy keyboard stand or flat surface
that will provide the proper support (Voyager keyboard versions are 40 lbs, while the Voyager RME weighs
about 22 lbs.) and will not easily topple (mounting the RME into an equipment rack is highly recommended).
Use caution when lifting the Voyager out of the carton, and be sure to save the carton and all packing mate-
rial in case you need to ship the Voyager for any reason.
Connect to Power and Amplifier
Make the connections as shown below. Connect the Voyger’s power receptacle (on the back panel) to
a wall outlet using the supplied AC power cord.
The Voyager’s universal power supply will operate with
a power source from 90 to 250 Volts AC, 50/60Hz. Do not switch on the power yet. Set the Voyager’s
Master Volume control to minimum before making the connection to an amplifier or headphones.
