Trying out some new drum mixing. Here's the result!

Metal Machine Drum Sample

Challenged myself to finish a song in a day today, a little rough around the edges and some transitions that need smoothing out but i'm happy with the result!

Trying out the Slate Virtual Tube Collection that came out today. 
All I can say is AWESOME. The effect is subtle but it's there. I used the Hollywood, which added some air and a really nice bottom end to my mix. You can hear when the second clip kicks in, the entire mix just feels like it's glued together much better.

Riff is by the great @monroe-vallejo for a song we're working on

Guitars are Kazrog amp sims, and ML Soundlab impulses. Drums are GetGood Drums.

Decided to cover the theme of my favorite film score of all time

Because someone asked to hear the previous post in a mix.
Done in about 10 minutes

Ibanez RGT6 > Helix Native (Friedman) > Ownhammer Recto V70
Bass is IK Modo (Modern Jazz Bass)
Drums are the new GGD Modern and Massive

Ibanez RGT Tone Test (+GGD Modern & Massive)

A fairly diverse collection of video-game-esque ideas I picked up and prematurely put down. I'd argue that these showcase a musical "vocabulary" not present in much of my guitar work. I've always found it easiest to realize what I hear in my head with the use of midi. FL Studio for everything. Heavy use of earthbound soundfonts because they have a really nostalgic character and I dream of being recognized by @nelward (as we all should), but some tracks make use of other instruments, including those from Touhou, Sega Genesis, regular 8-bit, um... I'm not good with the nomenclature. I'd like to put more work into these if the inspiration would ever come. The unabridged individual tracks are barely longer than they are here; we're talking ~30 second loops, so you're not missing much. I'm just a loopy kind of guy... wish there were a market for it.

This is a short test clip for my new drum pack I've recently put out. 

All of the drums are TCI's I've made from samples I've taken/created over the past several years. The cymbals in this mix are from GetGood Drums, but all of the drums/overheads/rooms are all from my TCI's. 

This pack includes TCI's and audio files for everything in the pack. It comes with both natural and processed sounds, and I've also included some presets to help make things a bit more 'plug-and-play'. The custom presets I've included are the exact presets I'm using in this test clip. 

*** This pack DOES NOT include any cymbals. Again, the cymbals are from GetGood Drums in this mix. ***
