t1 is so much better sounding here. im sick of moog making claims that the new stuff is true to the original sounds. vintage will always sound better, cos its more nature, rough and free.
@retrosound72 yeah, i was considering purchasing the minitaur but after i listened to this then listened to the macbeth minimac on sonicstate, im so getting a minimac, i think it sounds better than both and therfore worth the extra cost. BOOOOM, i cant wait!
Well I took the plunge and bought myself a set of T3's after stupidly selling a set of T1's back in the late 1980's. I have run these new ones through a decent sized PA and have to say they still have the same ground shaking effect of the T1's........ When you listen to them on a small studio amp they dont sound quite as "dirty" as the T1's but racked through a few K's of PA they "feel" lovely...... and that is the point with the Taurus....... you have to feel them!!........ and you can..
This is a great demo and the original Taurus 1 wins. I tried the 3 when it came out and returned it immediately, it's just a Phatty rehash and sounds like it has pillows in front of its output. Got a proper Taurus 1 and can't be happier: Nothing beats up the real thing. Plug it into one of the new light GK bass amps and the rumble will sound so clear it's unbelievable.
I think Cyril Lance (Moog Music's chief engineer) should have both his ears examined. There may be some wax in there. I've heard him say that he and his team have worked for days in the studio to try to replicate faithfully the sound of the original Taurus 1. I must say that it's a FAIL. Nothing else sounds like a T1: punchy, aggressive, defined, sizzling. The T3 is mellowed, thinner, blurry, muffled.
@AlainHubert I absolutely concur. Back in the days when the T3 was released, there was so much hype that this opinion was trashed by anybody supporting the T3 project. None of the new Moogs sound defined, they are all muffled. I own an original Musonics Minimoog and it destroyed a Voyager sonicwise in a second. Even a Taurus II/Rogue sounds better than any Phatty - I was a long time Taurus II user. The current Moog company is so based in hype it's sickening.
@drkam6 A couple of weeks ago, I went to my best friend's house with my 1975 Minimoog. We directly compared it to his Voyager Old School. We came to the same conclusion. The Minimoog's waveforms are much crispier, more defined in the high frequency range. The Voyager's continuously variable waveforms are its downfall. Even the simple triangle wave is sharper on the Mini. Even the filter has more character, tending to sync to the input signal when slightly overdriven. The OS filters are bland.
@AlainHubert I think it also has to do with the availability of components as time passed by. It is interesting to notice how quality of sound degrades listening to the three Tauruses, Probably they sacrificed sound in order to keep oscillator stability. What I criticize is that these T3 pedals bear the name "Taurus", which they're not. Moog could have called it Aries, Capricorn - whatever, but they knew it wouldn't sell. On top of that, they added the "faithful replica" hype.. scammy?
I have a T3 and love it. Tweak the eq a bit and they sound the same. It works, it stays in tune and is reliable, Midi and all are the perks. Mine is serial # 3000 the last one made. I feel lucky to have it. I will keep it till I die period. Punching it through my old venerable Acoustic 371 I can neuter cats at 50 meters. ....... enough said
Both good, but my vote is still the T1. The T3 reminds me more of the T2. Cripser but wimpier. The T1 just has a very full and satisfying bass, like gravity on Jupiter pulling you to the floor. The T2 and T3 are more like regular moog synths you play with your feet. They should have copied the exact original T1 circuits and then added some bells and whistles over it.
Instead it sounds like they tried to modernize it and of course ended up watering down it's bass magic.
The good thing about the T3, is that it will finally drive down the price of over-inflated T1's found on EBay and elsewhere. But the bad news for the T1 is that; replacement parts are hard to find I'll most likely grab the T3, and 'scope' it with a comparison to the T1 via high-end 1/3 octave graphic. The T3 can be software updated as well, if enough buyers scream loud enough.
This is a well-done comparison, especially if you go to 'Moog's' youtube vid with the engineer tweaking one in his lab. Unlike the Moog vid, your sound quality, through expensive earbuds via laptop is more correct for playing moog pedals. How could Moog screw up their own video!? Anywho, They both sound pretty close to me. If one ran the T3 through a Klark-Technik eq, I bet one could get even closer to the T!. Well done.
One thing I noticed during the "reso bass" demonstration is that on the T3, Oscillator A was set an octave above Oscillator B. When "reso bass" is played on the T1, both oscillators are set to the same octave.
It is not really a very true comparison as the Filter on your Taurus 1 is fully open and not on the Taurus 3. You should have tried to match the filter settings as it is giving the T1 a 'cutting edge' over the T3. I own a set of T3's and have also owned 2 sets of T1's, the T1 is slighly more 'mean' sounding, there is a subtle difference between the 2 synths, the T3 is possibly a bit smoother sounding?
T1's sound better by a hair. T3's can do more (obviously). I have the T1's but I'd still like a set of T3's. If you never had a set of T1's and want that sound the T3's do a fantastic job of delivering the Moog bass sound. T3's look good but I love the way the backside of the T1's look with the classic Moog logo.
I agree. The T1 does sound a little warmer and juicy! I had a heck of a time keeping the contacts clean back in the 80's. It would also drift sharp a bit. It made sound men tremble with fear when I walked into a club with that monster.
@leftygeezer Not this soundman! I own a set of 4 LABhorn subwoofers. I would just die to get a chance to hear some Taurus (I,II or III) pedals through my PA. I have a ton of synth plug-ins but they never have that fullness the real analog stuff has. Maybe when the plugs get up to 192k at 64bit.....
I happily own a Taurus III... I wonder if this was a fair enough comparison??? The Taurus I is sounding fatter than the Taurus III almost all the time, almost as if the Taurus III has had some cuts on the very low-end frequencies... Especially on Reso Bass, at 1:37, it's very noticeable there.
@retrosound72 thanks for info dude.... I guess they DO sound quite different.... I wonder if the T3 can be tweaked to get that extra low end like the T1? Have you tried?
the sound is really different, but no better or worst. the T3 sound is more modern like the Voyager and Little Phatty, the T1 sound is more raw like the Vintage Moog synths.
the biggest difference is , the T1 has linear VCO´s and the T3 exponential VCO´s
@retrosound72 The main thing I wonder is whether or not the Taurus 3 might end up sounding like a Taurus 1, after it has had 30 years to age...like the Taurus 1 already has! I'd love to own a Taurus 3 so I can find out after a few years.
I would assume there are more factors than just the units respective engines... the output on the T3 could be different and more modern... which could be an issue with impedance differences or gain differences, etc.
Question, what output are you using on the T3? the Hi or Lo impedance?
noticed that the filter pedal is all the way up on your Taurus 1 and only about 1/3 up on the Taurus 3. that definitely effects the presets. how do you feel about the two? i am currently selling my 1 to buy a 3. as painful as it is, i'm a touring musician and need a reliable instrument.
I have tested both over 2 weeks. I think it is a matter of taste what sound you like. The Taurus 3 sound more clean and modern with Midi , a cool Arpeggiator and more presets, the T1 sound more raw and and more deep. I like the T1 more.
too bad my garbage can doesn't make those sounds when i use the foot lever. do you do any trashcan modifications? moog-bin cross-breeding? maybe make the knob/handle on top to control freq env :)
The only diff I hear is the original has a wee bit more phasing between finely tuned unison oscillators, that discrete mixing tends to bring out.
However, your Taurus 3 appears to have some kind of droning higher pitched sound mixed in pre-filter. Dunno if that was intentional. They both sound great!
I have to say the T1 sounds bigger deeper and more analog, especially with the Reso Bass. It almost sounds like they are filtering the sub 20ish HZ on the new T3. Yes the T3 sounds more transient but it does have that modern day sterile sound in my opinion.
From this short demo, I have to say Moog did a great job! The Taurus 3 has al the fatness and warmth of the original. The sound is a little different from the Taurus 1, but certainly not less great.
Seems like the T1 has less higher frequencies in the sound, not quite as bright. That or Moog didn't do such a great job of replicating presets? Good job, hope to see more comparisons.
This may be the only video where someone actually played it with there feet I've seen . For my vote the T3 sounds the best , but they both sound pretty close and obviously the T! may suffer from age .
I think this needs to be a bit more rigorous to be a fair comparision:
1. Has the T1 been serviced/recapped/calibrated (some sound change will occur due to age anyway)?
2. Did you use the stock factory presets? Moog are tweaking these as they shipped with the wrong Beat settings on the classic sounds. You can tweak them closer yourselves though.
3. Reso Bass is a variable preset on the T1, the T3 does not have the same parameter access so it's difficult to know how well you matched them.
This is no competition, which Taurus is better. Yes, the T1 is calibrated and serviced.
The sound is a bit different, not only the presets. The sound of the old T1 is more raw and the T3 more clean. Its a matter of taste what sound any like more.
It's remarkable how well the Taurus 3 captures the essence of the original. They did a really good job. Is it the same? better? worse? Who knows, it's a youtube video. it's on your computer speakers. how can you tell? All I can tell is that they both sound great in the video, and I KNOW what Taurus 1 sounds like. Thanks Marko for the post! Now I have to buy one, and it's all your fault! ; )
The TONE is nearly identical to both synths. However, the Taurus I has a different analog grit than the Taurus III in my opinion. It boils down to this: Both are made by the same company with the same components and circuitry. The difference between the I and III would probably be the same between two III's or two I's! GOOD video!
This kinda reminds me of the whole "Minimoog vs the Moog Voyager" debate: Both sound very similar and the newer synth is almost identical--but the original has that "phat" sound you can't 100% emulate!
Tolles Video! Wie immer! Auch hier werde ich den Eindruck nicht los das das Filter des T1 weiter geschlossen ist als das des T3 (Siehe mein Amazona Kommentar).
Hi Dennis, das Filter beim Taurus 1 ist voll auf. Der Filter-Fußregler (rechts) ist ganz oben (siehe Video). Die Presets im T3 wurden nicht manuell angepaßt.
@031doolittle jeah man der taurus wird ab sofort zum nachbarnschreck nr 1 erkoren :-D auf das alle musikerhassenden nachbarn schon mal ihre besen zücken :-DD
Man kann mit dem Teil auch prima die Statik des Hauses überprüfen. Volume-Regler voll aufziehen und dann beherzt auf das Pedal treten. Wenn man danach nicht im Freien steht , ist die Bausubstanz noch in Ordnung.
Du hast die Presets genommen? Die elektronischen Einstellungen sind sicher nicht gleich bei T1 und T3, sondern da schlägt der Geschmack des "Creators" durch. Interessant wäre, bei gleichen Einstellungen zu vergleichen. Und, der T3 kann halt auch mehr als der T1. Auf jeden Fall vielen Dank für die Mühen sowie
Ja ich weiß, aber ich habe bewußt die 3 festgelegten Taurus1 Presets TAURUS, BASS und TUBA genommen da gerade diese hier sehr wichtig für den Benutzer sind. Die Taurus Presets sind legendär und extrem oft eingesetzt wurden. Man kann kann sich zwar annähern, aber es klingt nie identisch da der Klangcharakter etwas anders ist.
Hmm, das ist auch so. Der T3 klingt feiner und einfach sauberer, der T3 unberechenbarer und etwas druckvoller im Sustain. Muss jeder halt schauen, welche Klangcharakteristik man bevorzugt. Beide Geräte sind auf ihre Art super.
Well I have to say I prefer the T1 by a country mile

T3 is a joke. Nothing can beat the T1's clarity, and this video proves it.

They could have called it instead Aries, Scorpio, Libra - whatever, except Taurus. But hey - the Taurus name sells! Isn't it?

Hi Dennis, das Filter beim Taurus 1 ist voll auf. Der Filter-Fußregler (rechts) ist ganz oben (siehe Video). Die Presets im T3 wurden nicht manuell angepaßt.

Is it just me, or does the Taurus 1 sound better?

Man kann mit dem Teil auch prima die Statik des Hauses überprüfen. Volume-Regler voll aufziehen und dann beherzt auf das Pedal treten. Wenn man danach nicht im Freien steht , ist die Bausubstanz noch in Ordnung.

In the first preset it sounds like the Taurus 3 oscillators are more detuned than the Taurus 1.

Du hast die Presets genommen? Die elektronischen Einstellungen sind sicher nicht gleich bei T1 und T3, sondern da schlägt der Geschmack des "Creators" durch. Interessant wäre, bei gleichen Einstellungen zu vergleichen. Und, der T3 kann halt auch mehr als der T1. Auf jeden Fall vielen Dank für die Mühen sowie
den Ein- und Überblick :-)))

Ja ich weiß, aber ich habe bewußt die 3 festgelegten Taurus1 Presets TAURUS, BASS und TUBA genommen da gerade diese hier sehr wichtig für den Benutzer sind. Die Taurus Presets sind legendär und extrem oft eingesetzt wurden. Man kann kann sich zwar annähern, aber es klingt nie identisch da der Klangcharakter etwas anders ist.

Der Taurus III scheint den Sound nach oben hin besser aufzulösen, allerdings klingt der Taurus I wesentlich fetter - es ist eben der "alte" Sound.

Hmm, das ist auch so. Der T3 klingt feiner und einfach sauberer, der T3 unberechenbarer und etwas druckvoller im Sustain. Muss jeder halt schauen, welche Klangcharakteristik man bevorzugt. Beide Geräte sind auf ihre Art super.
