I loved looking in the booklet from *The Police Live* and seeing *2* Taurus synths at Sting’s feet in one of the pictures. I later learned that during the 1979 tour, he attached one of them to his Minimoog and triggered a tone with long attack, Osc. 2 tuned to a fifth and high filter resonance.
Yes The Police used the Taurus and Taurus 2.
Y tambien Rush
I wonder if there were more musicians that played these pedals that aren’t given recognition for it.
@@Shred_The_WeaponRex Brown from Pantera would overdub long sustained low notes with a Taurus.

👌
Such a classic sound, my dream would to be playing a set of these in an arena through giant subs.
the big sound. Thank you
SUBDIVISIONS! Awesome.
Thank you for your comment
@@retrosound72 You're welcome! "Xanadu" was really cool, too.
What a synth! my personal favourite use is on Sqounk by Genesis, especially the live version. Arena shaking!
a wonderful song. Genesis coming soon.
@@retrosound72incredible thanks
not forgetting the closing section of suppers ready ..
@@bepitan ooh yes, good shout
@@bepitanyear late so apologize but Supper’s Ready was originally a Dewtron “Mr. bassman”
I have 4 of them. 1975, 1978, 1980, 1981. I put them through 4 18’s.
:)
You, sir, rock.
Nothing compares to this day since Moog came out with the Taurus Bass Pedals
Agree with you 👍
My early music imagination was fired by this pedal, always gives me the goose bumps. Was great to hear xanadu, though i mostly associate it with genesis and steve hackett especially clocks! Cheers for the videos.
Thank you for your comment
Moog Taurus aka The Building Static Tester ;)
haha yes agreed
Truly an innovative piece of gear…very unique.
I hope to find one at a garage sale in Ohio for around $20.00. 😂
good luck :))
I've heard it's a place where dreams can come true.
I remember watching my friends band, covering a Rush song. The sound guy had them too loud in the mix. They rattled my teeth! That inspired me to by my own. Back in the day I bought them for $600.00 dollars Canadian. And I would never sell them. The sound is so identifiable, you know when you hear them. Great video as always.
Agree with you. Thank you Bruce.
Don't EVEN think about selling them! The only thing I would do to them is maybe mod them with a MIDI interface.
Many thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for your time
a big part of Rush and Genesis sound
thank you
if i have one of these my life will be complete...
:)
I never seen one of these before. Very interesting tool, never knew they was used so much. Always thought it was advanced affects pedal lol. Thanks for showing this off, now I learn something new today. As always love your channel and love what you do. Oh by the way nice shoes lol.
Vintage Synth. Vintage shoes. 🙌😅
The bass bull. Love these old beast.
Thank you Michael.
So many great tracks feature the mighty Taurus. Absolute tooth rattling bass on those things and it raises the heart rate when I hear it. A modern prog band who use it well is Big Big Train. Their bass player (and composer of many of their tracks) features the modern day equivalent of the pedals plus Moog bass synth in many of their tracks.
Thank you for your time
Didn't even know about Marillion till watching this...being a Genesis fan and listening to Marillion now...they have a VERY similar sound to Peter Gabriel era Genesis!! Love their music and what I have heard so far! Awesome video dude
Thank you for the kind words. Yes Marillion is fantastic. Love the old songs with Fish as singer. Next video is Genesis with the Taurus.
Oh ja!!! Marillion... Live, Garden Party... gute alte Zeit im Logo Koblenz. ...neben dem Moog ist da noch der Jupiter 8. So g... Sounds! Danke! Viele Grüße, Stephan
Danke für`reinhören :))
Erinnerst Du dich noch an das Video von U2? Auf dem Dach und es gab einen riesen Menschenauflauf, da, wo die Straßen keine Namen haben. Habe eine Konzert-DVD aufgenommen in Slane Castle. 100k Leute flippen völlig aus. Irre. Sorry, das musste ich gerade einfach mal erzählen. 😊
I think even Judas Priest might have used it in their song "Turbo Lover", from the second verse you can hear a big fat low synth note kicking in, and I think it might be the Taurus
Yes I think too
Ian Hill had a Taurus 3 in his rig rundown and said something about that.
It hasn't been until fairly recently have I realized just how special the Taurus is. Sure, you can take most any subtractive synthesizer, hardware or software, and make low notes but there had to have been some aesthetic judgements made with the Taurus about just what waveform the oscillators make, their relative levels, and the coloration of the filter that makes these things *crush you* once you've got them properly amplified.
Nothing sounds like the original Taurus. I had all here. Taurus 2, Taurus3, Behringer Clone. No one can beats that beast.
@@retrosound72 I am making do with the Cherry Audio Lowdown plugin but I love it
Ich hab es als VST-PlugIn, macht mega Spaß.
Have fun
Hier fliegt heut die Kuh, äh der Stier 😎
Du weißt ja was mir Spass macht. :D
I've got a Taurus 3 and it pumps out low end like nothing else. Lots of other analogs get clicky or farty that low.
The downside is that programming it is tedious, and awkward being down on the floor.
I used to sprawl over a footstool because sitting in front of it is too low, and leaning over you get light headed after 15-20 minutes.
And my knees, well they don't like being a load bearing structure that way.
Yes, it is not ergonomically perfect. But the sound makes you forget all the pain.....
This is a non-standard method, but very cool.
Спасибо большое 🙌🎧
🎉🎉🎉

where is yngwie
😉
I don't need bass synth... affiliate link me to some trainers damn it!!
😁
Police and U2 is Prog Rock?
not really
Progressive rock huh?
And Rock.
@@retrosound72 I just found out about dewtron mrbassman.
I've allways asking why the progressive bass players were playing this thing. I mean why it's a tipical thing to do if you're a prog rock bass player, when the prog keyboard players in your band can play the same or even better with their hands and their eyes closed. I've seen playing it Mike Rutherford, Chris Squire, John Wetton, Doug Ferguson..........Geddy Lee ( well they have not a keyboard player ) and Roger Waters, well to be honest he can't do it just beacouse he was not able to walk and fart at the same time (Floyd is my all time favorite band but let's be realistic on Roger)😅😂😊
A good question. 👍
Keyboard players started standing up more as keys were added to rock bands and they could generally do an agile synth bass with a Minimoog or something of that nature. The main appeal of the Taurus for bass players is for fat drones, to free up the keyboard’s left hand and because bassists don’t often operate effects pedals like a guitarist or even a keyboard player.
