MiniMoog Voyager Rack

The Minimoog Voyager Rack Mount Edition is perhaps the ultimate monophonic analog performance synth. It incorporates virtually all of the sound resources and functions of the original Model D Minimoog, which was produced by Moog Music, Inc. from 1970 to 1982. The Voyager Rack has many new additional features, including MIDI IN and MIDI OUT implementation, extensive patching facilities, and a large number of new panel features. Its backlit front panel includes all of the front panel controls of the Voyager (with the exception of the touch surface). All presets from the Voyager are useable in the Rack Mount Edition.

MiniMoog Voyager Synth Features:

* Three wide-range, high stability VCOs with continuously-variable waveforms.
* Five-input mixer for combining the audio sources prior to filtering
* Two wide-range ADSR (Attack Decay Sustain Release) envelopes
* Filter Envelope sweeps the filter and is available for modulation shaping
* Volume Envelope shapes the overall volume
