Zodiak Taurus Mega Octavizer by Yonac Software (Released)

Zodiak Taurus is not your grandparents' octavizer.
Zodiak Taurus is a mammoth multi-voice beast that takes the puniest tone and turns it into full frontal sonic assault. Slap it on your guitars, drums, bass, vocals, or even your keyboards. Then let Taurus elevate your sound.
Taurus generates five independent voices - or reconstructions - of your input signal in realtime. These voices together span a whopping five octaves. With a few tweaks, you can double track your guitar, add a bass, a sub bass, and even a high frequency overtone. The result is a big, spacious sound that covers the whole stereo field.
But that's only the beginning, because this is a Zodiak effect. To sweeten the pot, each Taurus voice features its very own saturation stage (tuned specifically for it); a detune control for obtaining non-octave intervals or even natural chorus or ADT effects; a regenerative delay stage that can be used for staggering the voices, changing their timbre, or even causing them to self oscillate; an attack envelope that can have each voice fade in at different rates; a tuned EQ submodule, as well as stereo panning and other parameters - all collected in a familiar mixer-like interface.
Newly developed algorithms deliver crystal clear signal reconstruction, and operate so efficiently that Taurus is as responsive when playing live as it is well-behaved in the studio. A special post-FX module includes cabinet simulators, room emulation, variable EQ, and compression to produce an easy to use, all-in-one audio solution.
Zodiak Taurus also works as an AUv3 effects plugin on your iPad, iPhone, and Silicon Mac computer. It comes with over 60 factory presets to start you off in your journey, as well as many other advanced features like patch save/share, MIDI learn, and more.
The latest offering in Yonac's new Zodiak series of effects, Taurus is jam packed with sonic easter eggs. Whether your goal is to emulate diverse instruments, create enormous walls of sound, or paint complexly layered psychedelic soundscapes, Taurus has a roadmap for you somewhere across its controls.

OK I like the look of this.
Me too. A real hardware look to it.
Octaver thingy?. I’m up for a good octaver
BY the name iis it kind of a bass effect. Like the moog taurus?
Right. Seems like a sub-bass and chorus?
Looks like a multiband saturator and delay to me.
i’m in take my money ! how soon?
Yes, I think it’s kind of a multi band manipulation thing as well.

Could be, but they are doing a whole Zodiac-themed series here.
It’s out!!

So glad I was right!. Just got it and did a quick test. It’s good!. No glitchy artifacts like on the THU octavers, no noticeable latency like on the Nembrini. Tons of controls and very useful features.
I’m mostly interested in down-octaves for bass thing, but there’s a lot of uses here. For example, adding slower attack with delay and tons of feedback on the upper octaves adds a very nice shimmer.
Loving it so far.
I couldn’t resist either. It sounds really great on beats (Axon 3 specifically!)
how does it sound on synths!?
Curious what it does with beats and synths, for a techno head like me. Hope to see a demo of that too.
How does it handle chords, is it polyphonic like Pog/Whammy5 pedals?
This thing is going to be great for White Stripes and T. Rex style rock.
augh so cool, love both of these bands. i hope so.
Sounds really good and seem to be far more equipped than the usual octavier. I have a tendency to tire real fast on these kind of sound (i.e for my guitar) but hope this can be different.
Jim Yonac always puts a little something "extra" in his apps. This is a nice one. And a steal at the intro price.
@Slush @waka_x Here is my demo for Taurus.
I try it with real guitar, synths and drums, it sounds particularly good on drums, seriously industrial.
It also works with chords but you may have do some tweaking.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video.
Thanks Doug, great demo
I think Taurus is a bit too gritty for what I do, but seems excellent for guitars and indeed great for industrial music (Godflesh)!
@Slush Yes, it’s pretty extreme😂
You can calm it down though by taking down all the individual saturation controls.
12 seconds into your demo I was heading to the app store. Thanks!
The demos made me realize that I didn’t fully understand what this effect is and that it’s probably not so suited to the music I make. I didn’t realize it would sound so guitar ampy. It sounds like it’s very good at what it does though which is cool.
Well you might be misunderstanding, because the saturation i.e. distortion is fully optional as each octave voice has its own saturation stage which can be individually turned on/off and also tone adjusted.
With low or no saturation, it can produce cleaner sounds. The effect is definitely not only geared towards heavy distortion
Lots of clean examples here in my 15-minute Taurus spoken walkthrough:
Hi @Gavinski . Nice demo. I think the Init patch is in the presets toolbar at the bottom of the preset menu. I find Yonac's preset system a bit inscrutable. So many icons to remember.
Thnx Dave, ah…yes I am not very familiar with the preset system they use. I usually use AUM’s system, as it gets tedious having to remember the quirks of preset systems in different apps, and so many apps seem to have badly implemented preset systems. Was expecting there to be the usual Init or Default option in the list.
