  • Today I want to have a look at something epic. You guessed it! It’s New Epic Taiko Ensemble by 8Dio. But why is it called “New”? Those of you who have been around for a little longer might remember that there was a Library of the same name a few years back.

The New Epic Taiko Ensemble features the highly renowned Taiko Ensemble group: Emeryville Taiko lead by master, Susan Horn. The recordings lasted over a week, which allowed us to capture an unprecedented amount of content. Epic Taiko Ensemble contains four main categories of samples: Multi-sampled Taiko Ensemble (10 round robin for all articulations), Live Loops of the Taiko Ensemble and an assortment of other sounds associated to Taiko (ex. ensemble screams, yells, yell-hits, percussive cannon (Tekkan) and presets.

Epic Taiko Ensemble follows the same principles established in our other epic percussion libraries in terms of articulations, velocity layering and round robin. Articulations have up to 8 velocity layers and all sampled at 10 round robin (aka repetitions). We sampled all the classic Taiko drums from the big sounding, O-Daiko, Nagado Daiko to the smaller and more snare like, Shime. In addition we also played the drums with hands and alternative stick types – and we got the most comprehensive collection of clacks made with different type of sticks and by hitting the rims of the larger Taiko drums. /dev-c-i-can-t-call-by-reference.html.

Taiko by Prisma Sounds (@KVRAudio Product Listing): Taiko is a free Kontakt instrument based on Subaqueous music Free Taiko Drum Rack and S. Christian Collins's port for Sforzando. As we made plenty of use of these samples, we decided to bring this instrument to Kontakt. Mar 08, 2016  SCC Taiko Drums is a free virtual instrument I created in SFZ format, based on free taiko samples I was able to find online. Requires an SFZ-compatible sampler. I recommend the free sforzando.

In addition we also recorded a comprehensive amount of ensemble loops with the Taiko Ensemble. The loops were recorded at 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130 and 140 BPM. The loops are intended to be used as stand-alone and/or in combination with the multi-samples. The loops contain both classic Taiko style rhythms and more contemporary rhythms for film scoring etc.

The library was recorded in the same signature hall used for our Solo Taiko Drum and Epic Frame Drums. We highly recommend purchasing both Epic Taiko Ensemble and Solo Taiko Drum, since they use the same drums, microphone perspectives and gives you the necessary depth to create completely realistic Taiko performances. The two libraries were recorded in the same Cathedral environment. Solo Taiko Drums contains over 4.200 samples – coverering the entire Taiko family from Daiko’s to Shime’s – with over 60 different articulations.

Film makers and theatrical producers are well aware of the dramatic power of ensemble drumming and percussion playing. It is used extensively during energetic movie action sequences and a recent appearance of Stomp at the 2012 Olympic closing ceremony demonstrated that it also translates onto the big stage.

Unlike Stomp, Taiko 2 exclusively showcases Japanese drums, multisampled and programmed to function as an instrument within NI's Kontakt. Possibly the best way to get to grips with the content is to load a selection of the 20 MIDI performance files into a DAW and listen through a few times, studying the note patterns as they play. Pattern names such as Hell's Pass, Prehistoric, Palace Guards, Dragon Warlord and Dojo Fight give a fairly clear idea of what sort of scene each one is designed to evoke!

The actual sound samples appear in Kontakt as part of a series of 'instrument' files, which are categorised as Kit, Ensemble and Solo Drum. Of those, the Kit files are the largest and include drum, percussion and voice parts that are assigned to specific keyboard notes so that they can be played easily using a controller keyboard. The four Kit variations in the menu are derived from low, mid, high and close microphone positions.

The Ensemble files are simpler, each one focusing on a certain instrument type. Distinction is made between drum, rim and stick ensembles, and there are close and front-of-stage microphone versions of each. The same options are repeated for the Solo Drum instruments, which, of course, are recordings of a single performer. Together, the instrument files allow users to either tackle the whole orchestra at once, or zoom in on specific instruments, when they're all that's required.

Operating within Kontakt, Taiko 2's custom interface provides easy-to-use tools for shaping the sound of the instrument files. Equalisation is handled by low, mid and high sliders, and high- and low-pass rotary controls. A menu called EQ DNA is actually a list of convolution-type EQ presets, its response curves having been taken from various location recordings. Taiko 2's reverb is also a convolution type and has 16 presets, this time with additional wet and dry sliders for finely controlling the effect level.

Further sound adjustments can be made using a stereo width control, and by altering the level of virtual valve saturation. The other major sound-shaping tool is an attack-time slider, which is able to apply different ratios to each instrument, effectively softening solo drum, stick and rim samples to a lesser degree than the ensemble ones.

Control panel aside, the most important thing to say about Taiko 2 is that it sounds excellent, almost regardless of what notes are being struck on the keyboard. It's clear that the hard technical work has already been done by the musicians, engineers and programmers, leaving the end user with very little to worry about besides making creative decisions. Each instrument, for example, has 10 velocity ranges and 10 round-robin variations, so any one of 100 samples might play when a note is pressed. Overall, that amounts to 11,500 samples, yet the user only ever has to juggle a few parameters.

The only possible criticism might be that Taiko 2's variations are not derived from recordings of different types of drums: this is one orchestra in one location offering one underlying sound. Nevertheless, not many people have access to a room full of Japanese drums, or indeed the musicians to play them, so the library's value is obvious.

All in all, it's probably fair to say that buying Taiko 2 should be a no-brainer for anyone who is asked to produce music for action films and games on a regular basis. Tom Flint
