Taiko 5

Taiko 5 is the first music sequencer designed to be used with a game controller. It's fast, fun, and easy to use. Select a kit, assign some sounds, randomize a few parameters and effects, and voila, you're on your way to making something unique. Feature Highlights: 16 Patterns per Song (1 measure per pattern) 5 Sounds per each 16th note (or Sector) 35 percussion kits 50 music kits 1,000+ sounds Volume and Pan parameters for an entire Pattern Volume, Pan, Pitch, and Shift parameters for individual Sounds Low Pass Filter, Chorus, Echo, Reverb, and Flange effects per Sector or entire Pattern Pattern recording Randomize percussion, music, and/or parameters and effects - at the touch of a button Favoriting kits 'Tilting' (emphasizing) between percussion and music Ducking Single note polyphony for music and basslines Seamless switching between patterns and songs Recording output to a WAV file (including pattern changes, song changes, etc) Loading user sounds and kits Because Taiko 5 handles effects and sounds per Sector (instead of a 'track') the music can range from ambient to industrial to almost everything in between. Changes can be triggered in real time as well. Inspiration Ever since I bought a Steam Deck I wanted to make music with it. But not with a keyboard and mouse like with a traditional modern DAW. Taiko 5 is the result of that. It works with Xbox controllers, PlayStation controllers, Steam Deck, and should work with other portable Windows based gaming systems as well. I hope you get hours of fun out of it as I had making it! Contributors A huge thanks to George Rennie for contributing drum sounds!
