Moog Music Forum

Hello everyone,
Thanks for welcoming me to the forum. I'm a proud owner of a Taurus 3 and, more recently, a Taurus 2 (Serial 1222). After cleaning it, it's working as it should again. Unfortunately, I don't have a rod for the control panel and foot pedal. I'm not sure what thread size was used. I read in a forum that a microphone stand should fit, but I can only find smaller threads here. Can someone help me and give me the measurements in inches? I'm from Germany and not very familiar with inch measurements (since we have metric threads here). Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Holger

Welcome to this forum!

Microphone stands typical use 5/8″ with 27 TPI (threats per inch). But you may find 1/2″ and 3/8″ too. You can measure them by converting the measured centimeters to inches by dividing by 0.39.

Greetings from Tübingen/Germany.

I bought a used Taurus II pedal set without the synth module. I wanted to MIDIfy the pedals to play Minitaur and have it double as a mic stand. I bought the Atlas MS-10CE mic stand - I removed the floor base and the 7/8" 27 threads per inch (TPI) tubing fit the pedal set. I've never seen the synth module so I don't know if it fits the other end, but it's a safe bet that it has a mount for the 5/8" 27 TPI tubing. The stand comes in either chrome or ebony finish - I ordered the ebony and I like it with the pedal set.

It is a 5/8″ with 27 TPI (threats per inch) for sure. The size is in the service manual in the Mechanical Replacement Part list as "Flange, Stand, 5/8-27 (AD-11)"
