The Voyager’s Analog Synthesis Engine
- The Oscillator section includes controls for choosing the octave, the tuning of the second and
third oscillators, the oscillators’ waveforms, and switches for oscillator sync, linear FM, and oscillator
3’s frequency range and keyboard control.
- The sound sources are selected and their levels are set in the Mixer section.
The output of the Mixer section goes to the Filter section. An effect can be inserted between the
Mixer and Filters by means of the Mix Out/ Filter In jack on the rear panel.
- The Filter section contains two filters that work together in two different modes. Dual Lowpass
mode features two lowpass filters in parallel and Highpass-Lowpass mode features a lowpass and
highpass filter in series. The Cutoff control affects both filters’ cutoff frequencies, and the Spacing
control sets a difference between the two filters’ cutoff frequencies. The outputs of the Filters are
passed on to the Output VCAs.
- The Envelopes section contains one ADSR envelope generator for the Filters, and one ADSR
envelope generator for the Output VCAs. The audio path is illustrated in figure 14.
