Description
The guys at GetGood Drums have gifted us with another incredible drum sample library: The GGD OKW 'Pop Punk'. The moment I saw the introduction video to this drum kit, I knew I had to create a Mix-Ready 'GGD Pop Punk' Songwriting Template for it!
I added additional One Shot samples to the drums so there is another layer of punch. Now these drums cut through the dense wall of bass and guitars.
You can use a real bass guitar or VSTi bass in this template. The processing is done with stock plugins and the free TSE BOD 3.00 plugin. I prepared the tracks so that you can instantly start recording your bass or write the bass midi.
The guitar sounds are created with the Neural DSP: Archetype Nolly amp simulation. crunchy rhythm tones, mellow ambient and lead tones - it's all included. Play around with the additional FX tracks (impacts, snare bombs and risers) and see how they lift your songs and add the final 5% to a finished track.
Speed up your workflow with this Mix-Ready songwriting template!
