Review: Kageyama Taikos by Impact Soundworks

Kageyama Taikos is a great, compact instrument with everything you need in one NKI. By using the ingenious 3D GUI, each of the six instrument groups is easily selectable. With each articulation ready to be performed, the intuitive controls are easily accessible to further shape your sound. Coupled with three mic mixes and a plethora of onboard fx, Kageyama Taikos is everything you need for a variety of scoring needs. In my composing palette, these fill a detailed Taiko-shaped hole perfectly!

Kageyama Taikos normally sells for $99 from Impact Soundworks
