The taiko sound has become an invaluable resource for music production and soundtracks the world over. With TAIKO THUNDER, Sonica Instruments is bringing to creators every vibration of the taiko's world-beating power and expressiveness at a scale never seen before.

Our objective was to develop the greatest taiko library ever, both in terms of quality and quantity. To this end, we carefully sampled some of Japan's most esteemed taiko performers playing 20 different percussion instruments essential to any taiko ensemble. And to ensure maximum realism, we sampled the sound variations at 19 different hit positions for both the left and right hands.

TAIKO THUNDER eclipses any previous taiko sample libraries, as it features dozens of articulations, seven microphone channels for exceptional mixing versatility, and over 1,400 MIDI grooves taken from live performances by top taiko performers.

Main Features:

  • Includes separate instrument interfaces specifically designed to replicate the behavior of all 16 taiko drums as well as the chappa, shoko, and kagurasuzu percussion instruments and kakegoe calls.
  • For taiko drums, reproduces the sound variations at each hit position for both the left and right hands.
  • Ensemble function recreates either solo performances or two to four-person ensembles.
  • Seven microphone channels in high 24-bit / 96 kHz resolution.
  • Built-in Instrument Modeler provides independent left-hand and right-hand control over many head, body, and stick & rim parameters, for complete customization of the taiko's sonic character.
  • Three play modes to choose from to suit your performance / input style.
  • Contains 1,400 MIDI grooves played by professional taiko performers that can be dragged directly into your DAW for immediate music production work.
  • Designed for live performances with dedicated settings for Roland's TAIKO-1 and many other MIDI controllers.
