[@OliSword]

Real drums, just with samples layered underneath.

Where can i download that gunshot and that bass drop? I searched youtube but couldnt find it

[@BrentynMacMillan]

Do you tune the gunshot to the same note as the rest of the mix?

[@ParanoiaClique]

More like, where did he get the sample?

[@lordsrawker]

freesound.org can offer some nice options

[@Kai_Imber]

How do I layer screams? Not mixing but to make it sound like one scream.

[@JulianWorden]

Lone Wolf 1. Get good takes where the vocalist sings both takes well enough in time or 2. VocAlign. But You should really not rely on a plugin, try to get the vocalist to do it well from the get-go and if you need to use VocAlign to fix little stuff then do it

[@DanielSmith-pw9ws]

Layers mate. Have them high. Have them low. Have them wispered then blend them till it sounds good. And have the dominant one up front

[@djspidermayn833]
