- Headphone Volume
The Fixed Value can be used by itself or added to one of the Shaping sources. It has a
course adjustment, called “High” and a Fine adjustment, called “Low”. Both the High
and Low values are adjustable from -64 to +64. The CURSOR button moves the cursor
between the Shaping Source, the High fixed value and the low fixed value.
3.3 KEYBOARD MODES
KEYBOARD MODES allows the user to select 1 of 4 types of keyboard priority for a
preset. Keyboard priority for a monophonic instrument determines what happens when
more than one key is depressed. Enter EDIT mode and use the +1 or –1 button to
highlight KEYBOARD MODES. Press ENTER and the current Keyboard Mode appears. Use
the +/-1 buttons to choose from one of the following options.
Lower Key (the lowest key pressed sounds)
Higher Key (the highest key pressed sounds)
Last Key (the most recent key pressed sounds)
1 Key Only (the first key pressed sounds)
3.4 TRIGGER MODES
TRIGGER MODES allows the user to select how the envelopes are triggered when
more than one key is pressed on the keyboard. Enter EDIT mode and use the +1 or –1
button to highlight TRIGGER MODES. Press ENTER – the screen will display the current
Trigger Mode. The +/- 1 button chooses a different option. The choices are:
Single Trigger (legato, envelopes aren’t retriggered until keys are fully released)
Multi Trigger (each time a new note sounds, the envelopes are triggered)
4.1 FIL. A POLE SEL.
This allows the configuration of the cutoff slope of Filter A. Filter A is the Filter that is
controlled only by the cutoff control. In Dual lowpass it is the RIGHT output. In
Highpass/Lowpass, it is the Lowpass filter. Use the +/-1 buttons to select 1, 2, 3, or 4
poles. A pole = 6dB/ octave cutoff slope – as the poles increase, so does the cutoff
slope of the filter. a 1 pole filter has a 6 dB/ octave cutoff slope (when it’s a lowpass filter
you hear it as very bright) and a 4 pole filter has a 24 dB/ octave cutoff slope (when it’s
a lowpass filter you hear it as smooth, dark, yet warm).
4.2 FIL. B POLE SEL.
This allows the configuration of the cutoff slope of Filter B. Filter B is the Filter that is
controlled by the Cutoff control and the Spacing control. In Dual lowpass it is the Left
output (using both outputs). In Highpass/Lowpass, it is the Highpass filter. Use the +/-1
buttons to select 1, 2, 3, or 4 poles.
4.3 FILTER ENVELOPE GATE SOURCE
4.4 VOLUME ENVELOPE GATE SOURCE
With these two functions, gate sources other than the keyboard and the External
Gate Input jack can be programmed to trigger the Voyager’s two Envelope Generators
when the Envelope Gate switch is in the On/External Position. Possibilities include:
− Envelope Gate Input (default – this is “On” with nothing plugged into this jack)
− Touch Gate (The gate signal from the touch surface)
− S&H Gate (This is the LFO square wave with nothing plugged into the S&H Gate
jack)
− MIDI Clock
− Keyboard Gate
− Gate is ON
