DESIGNED BY MUSICIANS FOR MUSICIANS
The TAURUS Slim Line bass amp is designed with special
regards towards the most important features for musicians in mind −
perfect sound, wide range possibilities of tone creation, good
monitoring on stage, reliability and easyhandling.
The TS−series is equipped with all essential tools to obtain complete
control over selective bass sound, suitable middle as well as treble
tones. In order to find appropriate sound of the instrument and (what is
extremely important in bass sound) appropriate middle band
proportion theTaurus is equipped with special tone control system
called MLO**. The MLO assures finding desired sound easily and quickly
using only 2 potentiometers − BASS and TREBLE . If needed, additional
precise control over middle frequency is provided by parametric
equalizer and switchable filters.
The Slime Line Series consists of three combo models with different
speaker configurations: 1 x10", 2 x 10 and 1 x 12. All share the same
preamps and power amps. They differ only in weight and dimensions.

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER
The PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER is based on 2 potentiometers − LEVEL and
FREQUENCY. TheEQ isset to work in range between 120Hz and 4KHz .
The LEVEL potentiometer is responsible for amplifying or cutting out selected
frequences chosen by FREQUENCY pot. When LEVEL pot. is set in 12 O’clock
position the EQ is “flat” and does not change the sound. The EQUALIZER’S
operation is illustrated below.

MLO − SYSTEM Middle−range Level Optimization
The Taurus' proprietary MLO system provides exceptional sound
creation flexibility, ease of use and intuitive tailored sound using
two tone knobs only.
The MLO automatically integrates optimal tuning of mid
frequencies using only bass and treble potentiometers. Logical
and effective tone adjustment greatly benefit musicians.
Furthermore, MLO keeps the volume level unchanged while low
frequencies are added to the original sound, changing only tone
characteristic, not it's volume.
