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.
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.
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!

A huge thanks to George Rennie for contributing drum sounds!
