Patch Panel CV Inputs - Description
The following is a functional description of the Modular Patch Panel CV Inputs. Jacks with white rings
indicate inputs that can accept either a CV or an Expression Pedal. Jacks with left/right arrows indicate
inputs that can accept either a CV Gate input or a footswitch.
ENV
This group of inputs allows you to apply an external signal to control the Envelope parameters for Rate,
Release and Gate. Both Envelopes (Filter and Volume) are affected.
GATE: This input allows you to connect a footswitch or input a CV gate signal to remotely
trigger both Envelope Generators. This input triggers the EG’s only when the front panel
ENV GATE switch is set to ‘ON/EXT’. If the ENV GATE switch is set to ‘KEYB’, an input on
the GATE jack is ignored.
RELEASE: This input allows you to connect a footswitch or input a CV gate signal. Pressing the
footswitch or applying a gate signal (+5V) enables the Release phase of both Envelope
Generators regardless of the setting of the software RELEASE function.
RATE: This input allows you to control of the Voyager’s envelope time constants with either a CV or
expression pedal. A positive CV will decrease the attack, decay and release times from the
envelope panel knob settings, and a negative voltage will increase the attack, decay and release
times from the panel knob settings.
OSC
This group of inputs allows you to connect an external CV or Expression Pedal to control the Voyager XL
Pitch and Wave parameters
PITCH: This input affects the pitch all three oscillators. A positive CV will add to the oscillator dial
settings, and a negative CV will subtract from the settings.
WAVE: This input affects the waveform of all three oscillators. A positive CV will add to the wave
dial settings.
FILTER
This input allows you to connect an external CV or Expression Pedal to control the Voyager’s Filter Cutoff
parameter
CUTOFF: This input affects the frequency cutoff of both filters. A positive CV will add to the cutoff dial
setting, while a negative CV will subtract from the setting.
VCA
This group of inputs allows you to connect an external CV or Expression Pedal to control the Voyager XL
Volume and Pan parameters.
VOLUME: This input affects the volume of both VCA’s. The Voyager’s MASTER VOLUME control sets
the absolute maximum value. A positive CV will then adjust the volume up or down within the
range set by the MASTER VOLUME control.
PAN: This input affects the panning between the left and right outputs. A positive control voltage will
pan right while a negative voltage will pan left.
