Rack Mount Edition by R.Stephen Dunnington
USER’s MANUAL for the Rack Mount Edition By R.Stephen Dunnington Here it is – the Minimoog Voyager Rack Mount Edition®. Moog Music has put more than 30 years of experience with analog synthesizer technology into the design of this instrument to bring you the fattest lead synthesizer since the minimoog was introduced in 1970. We’ve done away with the things that made 30-year- old analog synthesizers difficult – the tuning instability, the lack of patch memory, and the lack of compatibility with MIDI gear. We’ve kept the good parts – the rugged construction, the fun of changing a sound with knobs in real time, and the amazing, warm, fat, pleasing analog sound. The Voyager is our invitation to you to explore analog synthesis and express yourself. It doesn’t matter what style of music you play – the Voyager is here to help you tear it up in the studio, on stage, or in the privacy of your own home. Have fun! Acknowledgements – Thanks to Bob Moog for designing yet another fantastic music making machine! Thanks are also due to the Moog Music Team, Rudi Linhard of Lintronics for his amazing software, Brian Kehew, Nigel Hopkins, and all the great folks who contributed design ideas, and of course, you – the Moog Music customer.
