Welcome! Thanks for purchasing the Moog Voyager PlugSE™ Editor plug-in, developed by SoundTower Inc. This proprietary plug-in is installed in your audio software as a Virtual Instrument (VST Instrument or AudioUnits) and will control all of the functions found on the Voyager. Stunning graphics, intuitive functions and easy-to-use menus make tweaking the Voyager hardware with the Voyager PlugSE™ Editor fun and easy.
Installation VST/Audio Units Download the version of the Moog Voyager PlugSE™ Editor for your computer platform (PC or MAC) and audio workstation (VST or AU). Downloads are available from: www.moogmusic.com/products/apps/voyager-plug-se Once you’ve download and decompressed the .zip file, you will either have a .dll file for PC VST, a .vst file for Mac VST or .component file for Mac AudioUnits. Various DAWs have different requirements for the installation of plug-ins.
Configure MIDI It isn’t practical to provide specific instructions covering all the possible MIDI interfaces or configurations that are available. Instead, we will provide an example of a typical MIDI configuration using a MIDISport 2x2 MIDI interface. Make sure the Voyager’s MIDI In and MIDI Out are connected to the MIDISport interface. Returning to the PlugSE™ Editor, click the MIDI button at the top of the Editor window.
Voyager PlugSE™ Operation The Voyager PlugSE™ allows to you ‘reach inside’ the Moog Voyager with total control of all the functions built into the instrument – not only the front panel controls, but also the ‘hidden’ functions found in the Voyager menus. The following is a description of the Voyager PlugSE™’s panels and functions. Parameter Panel The Voyager PlugSE™ Editor displays a faithful reproduction of the Voyager’s front panel.
The yellow CATEGORY button will present you with a list of 32 categories from which to select a specific type of sound program. This method makes it easy to quickly identify a desired program. Simply select a category from the list and a specific group of the available sounds from all banks will appear. If you wish to change the category of any sound, right click on the Category name (beside the Program name) and select a new category from the displayed list.
MIDI Although the main function of the MIDI button was covered above in the MIDI Configuration section, there are more features that can be adjusted in the MIDI Configuration panel: When enabled, the Clock ON/OFF button synchronizes the EDITOR with the host MIDI clock. When enabled, the THRU button allows the host (DAW) to transmit thru the Voyager PlugSE™ during playback.
Receive The Receive button gets the currently selected Program from the Voyager. WRITE The WRITE button opens a dialog box that allows you to send the current Program to the Voyager and to be written into the Voyager’s memory. You can change the Program name prior to saving it by right clicking in the Name field and entering a new Program name. You can also save the Program to a differnet location using the Bank and Program location buttons.
Additional features of the Parameter Panel Keyboard The keyboard window duplicates the Voyager’s 44-note (F to C) keyboard with Pitchbend and Modulation controls and Glide and Release switches. A drop down menu on the far right selects the velocity of the notes played from this keyboard. LCD Screen The LCD screen on the Interface Panel has two hot spots to assist in selecting a desired program.
