Re: Panel Settings and preset 000

Thanks for confirming MFL, I was afraid of that. I can see that it would be handy for people who like to program on the fly and then save to another preset, but to someone who wants to line up all the patches in their synths for live shows it's an oddity and a PITA. Yep, I'll just shift everything u...

Panel Settings and preset 000

A simple question that I hope has a simple solution. I have my Minitaur's MIDI In connected to my Roland Juno-G's MIDI Out so that when I change patches on the Juno-G then the presets on the Mintaur change correspondingly via program change. I connected a USB cable to my Mac and used the Minitaur's ...

Re: Preset change automation “help please”

Hi Kendall, I see your reply was posted last October, but I had a further question about program changes and the presets. The manual does not seem to be clear about the difference between the Factory Presets and User presets and how they respond to program change messages. I have tested sending prog...

Re: Minitaur Note Range vs Taurus I

Well I'm happy to say that I found a Minitaur and picked it up yesterday! Once I got it connected to my Korg MPK-130 midi pedals and set the midi channel, I was able to start creating some patches and I can confirm myself, that C4 is as high as it goes. I was also also able to confirm that, with the...

Re: Minitaur Note Range vs Taurus I

Hi MC, Thanks for confirming that they have the same note range :) Last night I played along with Hemispheres with one of my synths, and the highest note that I heard Geddy's Taurus pedals hit was an (EDITED) B3 just before they go into the slower middle part at around 11:28. I checked out Xanadu an...

Re: Minitaur Note Range vs Taurus I

Wow, thanks for sharing the audio samples. The tunes are great! That lead in the 1st tune is amazing, very velvety as you put it :) I think I'm sold, just shopping around now, so thanks for your insight. I saw a lot of bar bands in the 80's and 90's in London, what was the name of your band(s)? I pl...

Re: Minitaur Note Range vs Taurus I

Hi DigitalMan, Thanks for the reply! I read some of your posts here about Rush sounds before I posted. Very informative, so thank-you for posting that info! I know the Minitaur is more for bass pedal use, so I looked at the Sirin which has a much wider note range, but the price and the rarity of the...

Minitaur Note Range vs Taurus I

Hi, I am considering buying a Minitaur for my Rush tribute band, but I am wondering if the Minitaur has the same note range as the original Taurus I pedals that Rush used in the 70's and 80's? There are several older Rush songs (Xanadu, Hemispheres, La Villa Strangiato) that have higher notes using ...
