NEW IN MINITAUR REV 2:
• Store 100 presets to Minitaur's internal memory.
• A new Decay/Release mode allows for independent control of Decay and Release times from Minitaur's front panel.
•Pitch, Volume and Gate Controller inputs can be re-mapped to other control parameters.
•Minitaur can now act as a CV to MIDI converter.
Front Panel Controls:
•VCO2 Frequency – Sets the frequency offset of VCO2 from VCO1 from -1 Octave to +1 Octave. Center is unison with VCO1.
•Oscillator 1 & 2 Saw/Square Waveform Selector – Selects a Sawtooth wave (LED OFF) or Square wave (LED ON) Signal for VCO1 and 2.
•VCO1 Level – Sets the level of VCO1
•VCO2 Level – Sets the level of VCO2
•VCF Cutoff – Sets the Cutoff Frequency of the 4-pole Moog Lowpass VCF from 20Hz to 20KHz
•VCF Resonance – This sets the gain for the amount of signal from the output of the VCF fed back to the input of the VCF. This creates a peak in Frequency response at the Cutoff Frequency that can be increased all the way to self-oscillation.
•VCF EG Amount – Bi-polar control sets the (+) or (-) Amount of Envelope Generator modulation of the VCF. Center is no Envelope Generator modulation.
•LFO Rate – Sets the frequency of the LFO. Range is from 0.01Hz to 100Hz
•LFO VCO Amount – Sets the Amount that the LFO modulates the VCO
•LFO VCF Amount – Sets the Amount that the LFO modulates VCF
•VCA EG Attack – Sets the attack Time of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCA. Time ranges from 1 msec to 30 seconds.
•VCA EG Decay/Release – Sets both the decay time to the sustain level and release time of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCA. Time ranges from 1 msec to 30 seconds. The Release segment of the EG is enabled by the Release On/Off switch.
•VCA EG Sustain – Sets the sustain level of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCA.
•VCF EG Attack – Sets the attack Time of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCF. Time ranges from 1 msec to 30 seconds.
•VCF EG Decay/Release – Sets both the decay Time to the sustain level and release time of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCF. Time ranges from 1 msec to 30 seconds. The Release segment of the EG is enabled by the Release On/Off switch.
•VCF EG Sustain – Sets the sustain level of a Minimoog-Style ADSR Envelope Generator used to modulate the VCF.
•Release On/Off Switch – Enables (LED On_ or Disables (LED Off) the Release segments of both Envelope Generators.
•Glide On/Off Switch – Enables/ Disables the Glide function
•Glide – Sets the rate of Glide when the note controlling the MINITAUR changes.
•Volume – The Master Volume of the MINITAUR’s synth Engine.
•Fine Tune – Adjusts the frequency of the VCOs +/- 1 semitone.
•MIDI Indicator LED – Indicates incoming MIDI activity
•LFO Rate Indicator LED – Indicates the rate of the LFO.
Back Panel:
•Audio Out – 1/4" Unbalanced jack.
•Headphones -- Jack for stereo headphone output.
•Audio In – 1/4" Unbalanced jack accepts line-level input.
Analog CV Inputs:
•Pitch CV – 1/4" TRS Jack accepts 0 to +5V signal (internally processed for 1 V/Octave) via passive Expression Pedals or CVs.
•Filter CV – 1/4" TRS Jack accepts 0 to +5Vsignal via passive Expression Pedals or CVs.
•Volume CV – 1/4" TRS Jack accepts 0 to +5Vsignal via passive Expression Pedals or CVs.
•Gate – 1/4" Jack accepts a 0 (Off)/ +5V(On) Gate signal to trigger the unit’s EGs.
MIDI:
•MIDI (DIN) – Standard DIN MIDI input for MIDI Control of the MINITAUR
•MIDI (USB) – Type B USB connector for connecting MINITAUR to host for USB MIDI.
