Many VST's out today are capable of creating great analog sounding bass (Sylenth1 for example) but after hearing the Moog Minitaur in person, the difference between digital recreations of analog circuitry and true analog are very clear. Sirin, The Analog Messenger Of Joy is a limited-production analog synthesizer module based on the legendary Moog Taurus Bass sound engine, and created in celebration of the 2019 Moog House of Electronicus experience in Los Angeles, California.

Hello colleagues,
I post this here since the Moog forum is almost dead and can't find a solution nor help from them.
I'm having the popular issue 'Disconnected' from the VST editors for the Minitaur and Sub 37, I'm using Windows 7 x64 + Ableton Live 10.
I've installed the latest firmware 2.2.1 and USB driver 4.35.0, also tried downgrading with other versions of firmware and using the generic USB composite driver from Windows too but I still get the disconnected message.
The standalone version of the editor works ok, so the issue is probably between windows and ableton 10. Was working ok in my old rig with Ableton 9.7.5. but not in this new PC and with the new Ableton Live. Minotaur moog vst drums

thank you in advance.

Getting the Minitaur to perform properly with Ableton wasn’t as self-explanatory as I would have hoped. For days I was convinced the Moog was actually broken on arrival.

After exhaustive Google searches, I contacted my Amazon seller and Moog Support to inform them of my issues: hardware glitches, Ableton’s external instrument failing, the whole project crashing sometimes, lack of MIDI automation, just about anything and everything. My audio interface was crashing, my USB ports were freaking out, the Minitaur would disconnect or drop from Ableton’s list of devices – my absolute nightmare. Al2223wd.

Now, it’s important to note I really wanted to be able to record MIDI automation using the Minitaur Editor, which is a VST that becomes available after you register the device. I knew it offered this functionality, and at this point, the best I could do was run the Moog as an external instrument. When it was NOT connected via USB, it was completely stable. So let me stop here for a moment.

This is how analog gear was originally made: as an instrument intended to be played, and captured as a live audio performance. And here I was, trying to get this thing to function like a VST.

I wanted to run it as a hardware interface to Ableton, whilst generating amazing deep bass. I wanted to capture that automation, with the ability to go back and modify those envelopes. And I thought it could, even Moog has three videos showing it in action.

And after two weeks, I finally found the fix online (screenshot below):

  1. In the Ableton Preferences, MIDI tab, be sure that IF the Minitaur is featured in the topmost list of connected devices, you remove it. Switch the Control Surface, Input and Output drop-downs to None. Yes, remove it.
  2. Down below, under MIDI ports, enable Track “On” for Input: Moog Minitaur and Output: Moog Minitaur, as well.
  3. Create a new MIDI track, add an External Instrument. For MIDI To, choose Moog Minitaur. For Audio From, choose whatever audio channel you are receiving via your audio interface – eg., Ch 1.
  4. At this point, your Minitaur should be connected via AC power, USB, and have a mono 1/4″ audio cable running from the Moog output to your audio interface’s direct input. You should also have a MIDI controller connected (keys / pads) ready to trigger sound.
  5. After a number of different setups, I found the Minitaur was most stable when it had its own dedicated USB port – you may need to secure a powered USB hub for your other devices.
  6. If you registered your Minitaur thru Moog, they should have sent an email with a link to download the Minitaur Editor (which is pretty sick, btw). Drag an instance from your plugins directory onto this same MIDI track.
  7. Click the wrench icon from the plugin device to open the Editor – and before you get too carried away flipping thru presets, make sure in the Editor Settings you have the MIDI Input and Output set to Moog Minitaur. I also have Echo MIDI enabled, which updates your physical knob tweaks to match the on-screen Editor.

After making this one change (step #1, above), all my problems were solved. It seems that, for some reason, if the Minitaur is listed in the top list of USB connected devices, AND the I/O MIDI ports are enabled down below, some sort of MIDI conflict occurs. It ultimately confuses the gear, the data, and the software. By simply disabling it from the device list, you’re golden.

Kinda wish I would’ve known this from the get-go. To learn more about the Moog Minitaur with Ableton, see my other post here.

    After catching a performance of Sylvan Esso on B Sides on Air, I was delighted to see Ableton and an APC40 in play. Unfortunately I missed their live show at SF's Bottom of the Hill, but it turns out Nick Sanborn integrates a Moog Minitaur live. After hearing some of their grooves, I knew this…
