Moog reveals MINITAUR analog synthesizer


Moog Music inc. Have revealed the new addition to the Taurus family. The MINITAUR is a standalone analog synth, it looks perfect as a desktop synth.

"Minitaur is a powerful, compact Analog Bass Synthesizer that features a classic one knob per function design. It is the first instrument in the Taurus family that does not have foot pedals. At only 8.5" x 5.25" and less than 3lbs, the Minitaur puts legendary analog Moog bass into a package designed to fit seamlessly into today's performance and production environments. There are no confusing or convoluted menus to dig through. Plug in a MIDI controller or hook it up to your computer and start playing immediately.

Don't be fooled by it's size. Minitaur delivers all the growl, snarl and low end assosiciated with the Taurus family of Bass Synthesizers in a rugged performance package that is small enough to take with you anywhere."


This thing looks and sounds incredible. It’s stated on the Moog website that it will be sold for just $679.00 (Roughly £440) which is a pretty fair price. I can just imagine this thing sitting on my desk next to my laptop. Looks like I’m going to have to save up some money for its launch at winter NAMM.
