In his score for the 1989 "Batman," Danny Elfman only had one main theme. However, we was able to vary and mutate it to fit the story's needs without running the original theme into the ground. Find out how he did this and more in this episode of Composer Toolbox!

After purchasing the newly released Eastwest Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition, I wanted to test it on a film score recreation, and I thought Danny Elfman's Batman Theme would be a good first test. So presented here is my MIDI recreation of it. Since I upgraded from the EWHO gold edition, there were a lot of new things (such as divisi patches and mic positions) and things I learned not to do next time. This ended up being a great learning experience!
Instruments Used:
-EastWest Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition: Diamond (http://www.soundsonline.com/hollywood-orchestra-opus-edition)
-stock Logic Steinway Piano
-stock Logic Organ
-stock Logic Choir
Software:
-Logic Pro X
-mixed using built-in Logic EQ
-mastered using iZotope Ozone 9 plugins
