Description
The Mix-Ready "ERRA" songwriting template screams modern metal! If you want: low tuned guitars, punchy drums, synths and electronic layers to emphasize sections in the arrangement - then you've come to the right place.
This is one of my biggest templates yet, as it includes over 40 tracks for drums, bass, rhythm guitars, clean guitars, ambient & leads, synth and FX! All balanced, mixed & mastered for a modern & pristine sound.
Speed up your workflow with this Mix-Ready songwriting template!
