Скачать или смотреть Piraxa Studios Live | MIXING Sixth Wonder "Thorn"

I am HONOURED to be live-streaming Glasgow LEGENDS Sixth Wonder today. Lots to play with in this stream with this award-winning Metalcore/Djent band!

Today, I'll be reamping guitars to supplement provided amp sim tones, creating drums from nothing but MIDI, then prepping this mix so it's ready to SLAM like it deserves!

Let's chat in the comments! It's going to get loud.
