Wavparty released Akemie’s Taiko, the final entry in its Modular MAYhem series of free sample packs featuring modular synthesizer sounds.
Joining Eurorack Party Pack #2, Mutant Bassdrum Hundo Pack, and Neuron is the latest Modular MAYhem release called Akemie’s Taiko sample pack. The Akemie’s Taiko library includes 103 one-shots, eight drum loops, and eight Ableton Live instruments derived from the Eurorack FM drum module of the same name.
Developed by ALM/Busy Circuits, the module is based on a vintage Yamaha FM chip and has the potential for a wide variety of sounds. Possibilities include glitchy snares, metallic percussion, melodic bass and lead sounds – or anything else one can come up with.
All samples included in the Akemie’s Taiko sound pack come in the 44.1kHz, 16-bit mono WAV format. They are ready to be dropped into pretty much any sampler or digital audio workstation straight away.
Akemie’s Taiko sample plack contains:
- 37 snares
- 22 melodic sounds (tuned to C)
- 19 percussion sounds
- 16 kick drums (12 of them tuned to C)
- 9 hi-hats
The pack is free to download from Wavparty. Akemie’s Taiko is offered as a “pay what you want” product with no minimum requirement. A valid email address is needed to complete the checkout process and receive the download link. If you like the wild modular sounds included in Akemie’s Taiko, be sure not to miss the other sample libraries offered for free download at Wavparty.
