she knew UK the working time garden in America working feet frames the for baby driver we worked in bars and beats so everything had to be broken down to a musical notation every piece of music has to be tempo maps which is something I've never done before so that first car chase sequence which is the John Spencer Blues Explosion because the tempo is not constant it's going one two three four one two three four one two three four one two three four one two three four one two three four so you take that you map out the tempo across the whole of the music cue because it's used in its entirety in that sequence and then you take say a police siren and then you tell the ProTools the tempo of the police siren and then you map the tempo to the tempo of the jump Spencer Blues Explosion so what you get is a siren rather than just goes floating around all over the place all those cars that you see in the movie we got onto a racetrack in Atlanta where they shot it and re-recorded from every angle all those cars we had a microphone on the exhaust yeah and another microphone under the hood we had a microphone inside the on the driver's side so we had these multitrack recordings of every single car and then you get them back into the editing room and you kind of think oh man that that's great but it doesn't it still doesn't sound right like for example what that red Subaru WRX has what's called a dump valve every time you rev it up those ugh which if you're trying think about stuff to music doesn't work so even though we recorded the Subaru WRX very little of that was used we then used a myriad of about five different cars for that Subaru WRX hopefully the audience don't notice but each car is an amalgam of say five or six different cars used in different way
