Behringer TORO Classic Analog Bass Synthesizer

Get ready to run with the bulls because a venerable classic synth is now back and made more accessible and affordable to everyone! Introducing the Behringer TORO, an authentic recreation of the legendary Taurus I made popular by Rush, Genesis, Dream Theater and Yes to name a few. Now all those iconic tones can be yours.

Faithful to the Original
Being able to deliver massive detuned sounds thanks to its 2 VCOs allows the TORO to instantly produce that classic earth-shaking rumble of the original. The TORO isn't just great for getting great bass sounds. Thanks to its 5-octave range, you can also get some nice searing lead sounds.

Modulation
The TORO comes with 4 sound presets starting with the classic Toro, Tuba and Bass presets which have been carefully recreated to sound just like the original as well as Variable, which gives you access to all controls so you can shape and fine tune your sound.

Made for Your Setup
Each of the front panel controls on the TORO have remained faithful to the original such as Filter and Loudness knobs, a Tune control and the classic Beat knob. Also included are individual CV, Filter and Gate inputs as well as full MIDI implementation.

Eurorack Ready
The TORO is designed to fit into a standard Eurorack case. Just connect the power cables to the power supply and mount the module using the included screws. This allows for the TORO to be mixed with other synth modules for a truly unique set up.

An Amazing Value
Get that massive-as-a-bull sound that only the TORO from Behringer can deliver. It's an amazing synth that opens up so many possibilities!
