Ooh la la Taurus

Cheers Antti

Nice

Beta 3 seems to be an noticable improvement over Beta 1 and 2! It is now possible to fully open the filter when running at 44 kHz.

Also, I had a peek at the upcoming GUI in german Keyboards forum...

keep it going

I really like this. Great sound.

[ouroboros]

This is great: really solid

This sounds excellent, and keeps getting better. One thing though, is there any way I can get hold of beta 2? One of my presets works more nicely with it.

[tryptychuk]

Someone should make a GUI for this thing!

I have made a GUI soecifucally for this job, but it seems Antii isn't interested. Some people just can't be pleased.

I'm pretty sure it was stated here that someone is already making a GUI for him.

Your picture is fun, but is enormous given how few controls Taurus has. Unlike a real Taurus, a plugin need not be big enough to accommodate your foot.

[jmh]

Yeah, kinda big for such a small plugin

guys.... that's a large hi-res rendering; it would not be that large once applied.

tryptychuck: really nice work there; but as shaman says, N-Beat was already doing it.

Gee, no kidding.

Shrink it down to a reasonable size, and look at all that unused grey space and the super-sized sliders and the space between those front controls. Also worth noting that the programming functions are buried away in that little middle panel.

It looks cool, and shows the guy's talent for graphics rendering. And that kind of a layout makes sense for gear you need to kick on stage, but as a software user interface, it isn't necessary or applicable.

I have a BSc in redundancy and a Masters in bloody obvious

I love this synth.

[tryptychuk]

I am well aware its a big image, that's how you make it accurate. Chances are they would only use the control panel and a few bits. I just thought it might be a nice exercise to create an authentic illustration, as it's a bit of a labour of love for me. The Taurus was always on my wishlist.
As for the other guy doing it, I had asked Antii some time back, and not had any response, so I just went ahead and did it for the fun. Nevertheless, an email reply would have been a simple courtesy.
Oh, and one last thing, it's not a 3D render, it's entirely Photoshop, and no photographic textures used.
