<< Hi everyone,
Here's a question for ya:
I use a Hammond XK-2 to control my V5. The mod wheel on the XK-2, when
pushed up, makes the V5 sound with all its drawbars out, irregardless of the
current drawbar setting. The mod wheel is set to controller #1 on the XK-2.
I know I can change that to another controller # to solve the problem, but I
need the mod wheel set to controller #1 for my synth, which is also midi'ed
into the XK-2. I CAN'T change that setting on the synth itself.

Is there any way to disable or change controller #1 on the V5, so it won't
respond to mod wheel data??

Take the MIDI cable off the Voce unit. Look inside the end of the cable at
the pins, turned so it's kinda like a smiley face. Now look for the pin which
would be the right eye in the face; it will be on your left at the top. Let's
call this pin "1." Let's call the smiley-face "Juan." Anyway, this is the pin
that goes back and forth when you wiggle the mod wheel. Just grab it with a
pair of needle-nose and break it off. Now Juan looks like a pirate, maybe.
That should take care of it. If it doesn't work right, your unit must be
broken.
