Making of “Flight of the Navigator“

SUBTITLES AVAILABLE! - First turn on captions by pressing the “CC“ button - Then press the gear symbol to the right, press “subtitles/cc“ and choose “auto-translate“ instead of “English“. Then you can select your language from the list, and YouTube will translate the subtitles automatically. In this workshop episode I’m breaking down how I made my cover version of the main title theme from the 80’s movie “Flight of the Navigator“ by Alan Silvestri, which is out now for streaming/download: You can find the music video here: Contents: 0:00 Introduction 3:23 Arrangement 5:07 Bass 9:23 Piano 11:10 Kick & snare drums 16:41 Toms 19:06 Hihats & cymbals 20:47 Percussion & FX 22:15 A part & melody 27:04 B part & C part 30:38 MIDI automation & recording 32:54 Analog vs. digital summing 36:15 Analog submixing 40:52 Mixing in mono 41:35 Adjusting the bus compressor and EQ 45:05 Analog submixing continued 48:12 Audio automation & thoughts on mixing with bus compressor and EQ 50:16 Mastering The video production was supported by Musiikin Edistämissäätiö, for which I’m truly grateful.
