Behringer Toro

I have always yearned for a Taurus. Behringer made it possible for my dream to come true. Sounds badass paired with a feet key controller. Easy to handle by feet. I play bass in a post-metal band. It is a really nice addition to my sound.

It reminds me to the Big Moog in a way. In the most used Variable modus, The contour sliders control kinda vintage envelope and have limited variation on the filter, not very usable in a musical context to my liking. The faders are inactive in any of the presets, kinda poor. Good to have CV/GATE input besides of MIDI, so it's very useful with my modular setup. The Beat is kinda fine detune but not equally set across all pitches like in the old Moog, which I find a real pity. What I miss is the overall punchy Big Moog fattyness. Other than that, a nice budget fun synth.

For the price I have to give it 5 stars. Sounds very much like the original Taurus.

Purchased to work with MIDI foot pedals to produce those classic prog rock sounds of the the 1970s. It does it easily and beautifully. Not hugely expensive - the price of a mid-range guitar pedal.

It is what it is. For me it sits well in the mix. A bit short on control and i can't get it to respond to velocity. Missing ADSR and front pannel midi connector is not where it should be. Soundwise... it's phatt and can resonate your windows...build like a tank though. It can deliver bass and sub rumble when you need it.

Easy to use and I think sounds very rich and good. I am happy with it and it’s an affordable way to get Moog sounds.
