軟體簡介:
TAIKO 2 is a multi-sample library of Japanese drums capable of an extensive
range of sounds and impacts. By combining theatre recordings with intricate
programming, inspirational patches and MIDI performance files, TAIKO 2
offers composers a unique set of tools for creating compelling drum
performances.
The all-new recordings for TAIKO 2 combine depth of sampling and sound with
an easy-to-use, customizable, fun and inspirational experience. This is how
it breaks down:
Depth: Every drum, rim and stick hit feature 100 samples spread across 10
velocity ranges with 10 alternating hits (a.k.a. 10x10 round robin). The full
range of a taiko ensemble’s detail and tonal color is available with over 30
different drums, 14 rims, and 14 stick types recorded in solo and/or ensemble
settings.
Ease-of-use: With a focus on providing the maximum range of sounds within a
minimum amount of patches, honing in on what is needed is quick and intuitive.
The core patches are organized into “kits”, allowing for complete and colossal
drum compositions from a single patch and MIDI track (including bonus gongs,
cymbals, steel hits and vocals).
And once a part is composed, simply change to another kit for an entirely new
sound!
Customize: Dialing in new sounds is simple with the innovative EQ DNA menu,
custom reverb selections and other effect and mix controls directly on the
interface.
After tweaking, settings can be saved directly to a preset list within the
interface for later use – or to quickly compare to other settings within the
same patch!
Fun: Load a patch, mash some notes on the keyboard and listen to the army of
drummers perform at command. No keyswitches, no bizarre mappings – just pound
and go!
Inspirational: TAIKO 2 is capable of creating performances ranging from subtle
and nuanced to ethereal and majestic, to over-the-top huge and powerful.
When additional inspiration is needed, there are 20 ensemble MIDI file
performances covering a range of tempos, time signatures and styles. Pair these
with any of the ten custom presets in each patch to complete the spark.
