  • Taiko Drums added to percussion library?

    Hi Herb!

    Could you please tell me: will there be added TAIKO drums to the upcoming library in Q2? These drums are used a lot for scoring music.
    The libraries existing offer these sounds - they are not too bad. BUT: your team and musicians could do it much better and more detailed using your skills and techniques!!! [[;)]]

    The same would be nice for IRISH TIN and LOW WHISTLE! This is used more and more in symphony orchestras!!!

    Is it not the detail in playability of an instrument that makes it sound awesome??? [:P]

    Would be nice! Would do you think?

    Thanks

    Matt

  • Hi Matt,

    It is not easy to find very good sounding taiko drums! At the moment we are looking for them and hope, that we will find them at the latest in autumn 2003.

    I hope, you can wait ... [[;)]]

    All the best,

    Uli

  • Of course I will! So this means that these drums are planned to be included someday?

    What about irish whistles and flutes?

  • Hi Matt,

    I´m organizing the percussion recordings and I´m planning to record the taiko drums - I hope this year! (but I don´t know exactly ...)

    Irish whistles and flutes: I don´t know - its not my business, but I can ask Herb!

    Best Regards,

    Uli

  • Yes, Uli! Awesome!

    Would be nice to ask Herb... Thanks & hope to hear from you soon...
