G – Input/Output Panel

The Side Panel provides all of the input and
output connections. In addition to two Audio
Output jacks, there are CV and Gate inputs,
and connections for MIDI and power.

Power Connector:
This is a standard AC power inlet, Use only a power cord designed to mate with this receptacle. The Taurus
3’s built-in universal power supply is designed to work with power inputs of 90-250 Volts AC, 50/60 Hz.

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE – Do not alter the power connector in any way. Doing so can
result in the risk of shock, injury or death. Be familiar with the safety instructions printed at the
beginning of this manual. If the connector is damaged, refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Audio Out:
The Audio Out jack provides two unbalanced line-level signals for connecting to an amplifier or mixer. Use
the ‘HI-Z’ output when connecting to the instrument inputs of an amplifier. This is the classic Taurus output
stage. Use the ‘LO-Z’ output for connecting to a line-level input on a mixer or amplifier.

CV Inputs:
The Pitch, Filter and Volume CV jacks supply power and will accept an expression pedal such as the
Moogerfooger EP-2 (ring = +5.5 supply to the pedal, tip = variable CV return), or a control voltage from
0 to +5 Volts. The Gate Input accepts a +5 Volt Gate trigger signal.

MIDI Connectors (DIN and USB):
These are connections for MIDI In/Out. MIDI I/O is user configurable for either connection type. For more
information on configuring MIDI options, see MIDI Setups, page 38.
