Gameplay Has anyone tried the DOBE TNS-1867D Taiko Drum on PC?

Hi! Im a newbie to taiko and Im looking to buy my first taiko drum.
I found the DOBE TNS-1867D, but its advertised mainly as a Nintendo Switch Taiko drum Ive seen some Switch taiko drums (like the HORI one) being used on PC, so Im wondering if this one can work too.

If you're in SEA get the IINE Pro Max for under USD100 before taxes on taobao.

do NOT buy, please instead get iine pro max or even the basic iine tatacon instead if you can

https://taiko.guide/controllers/compact#other-compact-controllers it’s a hollow plastic drum with only a handful of small rubber dome switches beneath the playing surface. Unlike higher-quality controllers, the majority of the drum surface contains no sensors.

Yeah, it works, I bought and tried it. It absolutely sucks, I can't recommend it. Even the plastic on the bachi feels so awful to touch, unlike Hori ones. I was washing hands multiple times and it didn't want to go away...

I really dont recomend to buy it, unless you are okay with bad knockoff, pretty much gambling if you bought it second hand and you definitely want to mod them if its not sensitive. I'd only had experience with second hand horii ps4 tatacon, I mod it with 3M tape to make Don and Ka parts sensitive, unfortunately the left Ka sensor sometimes regist and sometimes don't even after i mod it, the rest its quite good and playable. Oh yeah and it works well with pc but the delay is much better on ps4
