buy the synth, love the filter
Nicola L. 04.05.2015
There is no hype behind the Moog brand: what they produce are nothing but outstanding products.

This is probably the cheapest Moog synth you can buy, and I feel like saying that, if you can afford buying only one synth, make it this one. Its biggest, and in my opinion, only limitation is the number of octaves it covers (it is a bass synth, after all).

You may want to try some of the built-in factory presets, but honestly after 30 minutes of playing with it, you will forget about presets, plugins, and any digital witchcraft (that the Minitaur supports anyway): you will just want to turn knobs! It will be at this point that you understand what they mean when they talk about 'shaping the sound with your hands'. All the controls are so intuitive and responsive, that you just know what to do.

And it because of its great responsiveness and intuitiveness, that I also use it a lot as a modulation filter on practically anything. This is probably not as complete and featured like the Moogerfooger MF-101, but until I can afford buying one, the Minitaur will act as an excellent stopgap.

One last note: with the latest firmware revision, the Minitaur can also work as a MIDI2CV converter. This is not listed among the feature in the product description at the time I wrote this review.

Nice
pros:
the sound is nice, the built is sturdy, integration with editor is neat.
cons:
probably me, I hear some low (in volume) white/pink noise type of sound over any sound I play (using headphones). will try to hunt it down, but could come from my lack of experience with analog synths. Seems to be in all of the editor patches tho, it is modulated too, with no apparent link to the modulation rate on the synth itself.

Will edit if I find my fault

Great bass synth
Tyler Crash 01.03.2023
Really, really great bass synthesizer with some very deep tones. The synth comes to life when you use the PC editor, but even without it you can create some amazing Moog bass tones. There is a reason why a lot of people consider Moog to be the gold standard.

For bass, it can't be beat
circuitghost 03.06.2019
While still a Moog, it has its own unique take on bass. Nothing cuts through like this one.

Simply amazing product!
Highly Recommended. 14.03.2022
Moog synths are - in my opinion - the best on the market, alongside some made by Korg. This particular synth is amazing for bases.

If your workflow requires a solid base like mine does, then I highly recommend the minitaur.

Small in Size. but a Beast in Sound
SJS 14.02.2021
This was the first Moog product i bought ever - and as soon as i got it i knew i was hooked! Having used a Taurus in a studio before, i was hoping for something similar - well, i was wrong - to my ears (and to the Taurus owner) it's spot-on!

Pros: Moog quality, Taurus history - at an affordable price!

Cons: I do have to read the manual for some functions

Analogue Rules
Robert W. 394 15.04.2015
If you can hear the difference between numbers and electricity this is for you. Hands on tweaking wilst also having digital patch storing gives you best of both worlds. Friends of mine have a little Phatty and this sounds as good as a bass but gives you more access to parameters so crazy sounds come easier. as well as performances to tweak the sound as it happens. Very happy with the purchase. been ordering from tHomann for years.
