Patch Panel CV Outputs - Description
The following is a functional description of the Patch Panel CV Output jacks:
TOUCH
This group of outputs is generated from the Voyager keyboard’s Touch Surface Controller. There are three
control voltages (X, Y, and A) and one gate signal.
X: This is the CV generated by left to right (horizontal) position of contact with the touch surface.
Y: This is the CV generated by up and down (vertical) position of contact with the touch surface.
A: This is the CV generated by the amount of area covered on the touch surface.
GATE: This is a gate signal generated by contact with the touch surface. When contact is made, the
Gate is ON and when no contact is made the Gate goes OFF.
NOISE
This output is the Voyager XL’s internal noise source.
KBD
This group of outputs is generated from the Voyager XL Keyboard. There are three control voltages (Pitch,
Velocity and Pressure) and a Gate signal.
PITCH: This is the CV generated by the note played on the keyboard. It is the same voltage
used for controlling the pitch of the Voyager XL Voltage Controlled Oscillators.
VEL: This is the CV determined by the velocity used to depress a key.
PRESS: This is the CV determined by how much pressure is exerted on a key after it is depressed.
GATE: This is the gate trigger signal that is generated when a key is pressed.
WHEELS
This group of outputs is generated from the Voyager XL Left Hand Controller Wheels.
PITCH: This is the CV generated from the Pitch Wheel.
MOD: This is the CV generated from the Mod Wheel.
PEDALS
This group of outputs is generated from the MOD1 and MOD2 jacks on the rear panel of the Voyager.
MOD1: This is the CV generated from the MOD1 input. The MOD1 Input is a CV input on the Voyager
that determines how much of the PEDAL/ON Mod Bus Source goes to the PEDAL/ON Mod
Bus Destination. With nothing plugged into the MOD1 jack, the voltage that’s present at the
MOD1 jack is +5V. When a CV is plugged in to the MOD1 input, that voltage replaces the +5
Volt signal at the MOD1Input. The voltage applied to the MOD1 Input is transformed into a
bi-directional signal (-5V to + 5V) at the MOD1 output.
MOD2: This is the CV generated from the MOD2 input. The MOD2 Input is a CV input on the
Voyager that is an external modulation source for the Mod Busses. With nothing plugged into
the MOD2 jack, the voltage that’s present at the MOD2 jack is +5V. When a CV is plugged
in to the MOD2 input, that voltage replaces the +5 Volt signal at the MOD2 Input. The voltage
applied to the MOD2 Input is transformed into a bi-directional signal (-5V to + 5V) at the
MOD2 output.
