The front panel features a knob-per-function design, for maximum real-time tweakability. There are no internally stored presets, but presets can be created and managed via MIDI. The MINITAUR™ has several new features added to the classic Taurus synth engine, including an external audio input, that expands the basic synthesis and sound design capability of the instrument. And at only 8.5"(21.6cm) x 5.25"(13.3cm) and less than 3 pounds (1.36Kg), MINITAUR™ fits right into the today's computer based music production rig.
