Description

Yes! The GetGood Drums eternals have answered our prayers for a new drum sample library: it's the GGD PV Matt Halpern Signature kit! 🎉 I had to grab it immediately and quickly realised that this is one of their best drum libraries yet.

Once I had the original PV drum samples at my finger tips, I knew that I had to do a full songwriting template in the style of Periphery. I created this full mix of the song "Wildfire" with the help of my friend João Medeiros. He covered this song on his YouTube channel and allowed me to use the drum midi and DI tracks.

The GGD PV kit has multi-out routing to the DAW and you will find individual plugins on the tracks to bring out more punch and polish. There is parallel compression and bus processing so it all sums up to the well known, modern Periphery drum sound.

You can use a real bass guitar in this template. João recorded a very clean bass DI track and I went for a consistent but gnarly bass sound. The star of this bass sound is the free Growler bass amp sim. You need to check it out if you haven't already.

I paired the incredible Neural DSP: Archetype Nolly X amp sim with a custom Impulse Response (Mesa 4x12) for the iconic djent rhythm tone. The wet lead guitar tones blend nicely with the mix, creating a depth and ambience while the solo guitar tone sits nicely above the other guitars.

Speed up your workflow with this Mix-Ready songwriting template!
