Moog Music announces a new way to store, organize, compile and create Voyager presets — the Minimoog Voyager Editor-Librarian Software. This amazing new software includes all the functions contained in a Voyager preset on one screen. The Editor’s multi-functional easy-to-use interfaces allow users to create and interact with their Voyager like never before.


Designed to be the ultimate tool for managing and creating presets for the Minimoog Voyager, functions include: high resolution controls for creating precise adjustments to your presets, a radical GENETICS function for mutation and morphing of presets, and the LIBRARIAN function which allows the storing of a virtually unlimited number of presets, in user defined categories. Through a MIDI connection, you can pull or replace single presets or the entire bank of presets from the Voyager to your computer for storage or editing. Writing presets to your Voyager’s memory from your computer is as easy as a click of your mouse.
