Related Controls
Release Switch:
The release time of the envelopes is set by their respective
RELEASE
control knob, but this control can also
be switched OFF. On the Voyager OS , there’s a dedicated
RELEASE
switch located in the left-hand control
panel for this.
NOTE: The Release function is actually a divider for the release time, so if the
RELEASE control knob is set to 10, the release of the envelopes will not be
absolutely abrupt with the RELEASE ON/OFF function switched off.
Additional CV Connections:
Gate (Envelope Gate Input):
The
GATE
jack 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’, any input on the
GATE
jack will be ignored.
Release:
The
RELEASE
jack 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
RELEASE
switch.
Rate (Rate Control Input):
The
RATE
jack is a CV input for external control of the Voyager’s envelope time constants, using either a
CV or expression pedal. The effective input range is -5V to +5V and effects both envelopes. A positive
voltage applied to the
RATE
jack 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
as shown.
The envelope AD&R parameters
will expand and contract based on
the voltage at the RATE jack.
