"Isn't that what about you, what are you doing with me? ”

Li Yifan turned his head with difficulty and didn't look at Lei Yun's eyes.

"I don't mean anything else... The reason why I'm telling you this is because I think the two of us are quite similar, at least, at least. ”

Lei Yun patted Li Yifan's shoulder as he spoke, and said with a little self-deprecation.

"At least you're not going to laugh at me, are you?"

Li Yifan looked at Lei Yun's eyes and suddenly understood.

He remembered that when he first came to school, he was secretly writing a novel on the website and was discovered by his roommate, and the next day the whole class knew about it, and when they met, he asked the great writer how many words he wrote, what works the great writer wrote, and where he published it.

In the face of everyone's ridicule, Li Yifan was just red-faced and never wrote a word.

But Lei Yun never laughed at him, but the relationship between the two of them was the best in the dormitory.

Maybe it's the same ordinary family environment, or maybe it's driven and encouraged by Lei Yun to go to KFC to work, or when he just started school, seeing that his legs and feet were not very convenient, Lei Yun took the initiative to change the bunk bed with him.

Because of polio, Li Yifan rarely felt equality and respect since he was a child, so when someone does this, he will regard the other party as his friend.

"Of course I won't laugh at you, but... What are you going to do? After all, you don't even know staves. ”

"That's just for now..."

After speaking, the corners of Lei Yun's mouth raised, and he blinked and smiled.

"Eh, remember Michael Jackson?"

After speaking, the two of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help laughing.

······

"Oh, I remember you, you are the junior who sang "Love You for 10,000 Years", right?"

"Uh... It's me. ”

"How's it going, did you make a successful confession?"

"No, senior sister, don't listen to that guy Big Tiger's nonsense, there is nothing to confess at all!"

"Hey, who is the big tiger?"

"Ao, the big tiger is Hao Lang, because he has a dog called the big tiger, so we all call him the big tiger. ”

"Haha, that's too bad, you guys. ”

"It's all a matter of being a child, and when you call it, it's called a habit. ”

"So they also call you Comrade Lei Feng?"

"Yes [tearful emoji], because my dad's name is Thunder Wind, so... ”

"Hahaha. ”

Walking on the way to the library, Lei Yun recalled the WeChat chat with his senior sister this morning, and the corners of his mouth were like honey, as if they were frozen in a cocked state.

Since he wanted to teach himself how to compose music, he picked up his notebook and ran to the library to start looking up materials on the Internet.

The reason why he is not in the dormitory is that Li Yifan is the best example from the past.

People are terrible, and Lei Yun doesn't want to be drowned out by everyone's ridicule and laughter for nothing.

The library is quiet, but you can calm down and do what you really want to do.

'How to Teach Yourself to Compose'

Open the search software, type in the words 'how to compose music on your own', and you will be flooded with a huge amount of information.

'Beginner, how do you start teaching yourself how to arrange?'

'How to Teach Yourself to Arrange Music for Non-Professional Novices – Preparation'

'How do you learn to compose music systematically?'

The cursor continues to be scrolled down, and the variety of entries is dizzying, and the results for this alone are in the millions.

The Internet age has made information extremely abundant, even excessive.

But as long as you have the heart, you can get most of the information you want at a very low cost.

"Let's look at this first. ”

Lei Yun thought about it, and first opened the entry 'Non-professional novices, how to teach themselves to arrange music - preparation', he wanted to understand what preparations need to be done in the early stage.

'The first step is to learn the basics of music theory. ’

"How do you learn music theory?"

Thundercloud shook his head, didn't think about it, and continued to watch patiently.

Step 2: Choose an arranging software. ’

"Arrangement software? What is this?"

Type in the words 'arranging software', and Lei Yun understands what arranging software is.

It turns out that the electronic music I usually listen to is different from the music played by ordinary musical instruments, which is directly modulated, synthesized, arranged, and mixed through electronic instruments or computer arranging software.

All music that is not played by instruments, but is created directly using electronic instruments or arranging software, can be collectively referred to as electronic music.

Then the arranging software, which is the basis of all this, is particularly important.

Arrangement software, also known as host software, means that all melodies, timbres, chords, etc., are produced through software.

"So what arranging software should I use?"

Lei Yun realized that learning and mastering the arranging software would be the most basic and essential step in creating music for himself.

After searching the Internet, I found that there are many different professional arranging software, including FL Studio, Cubase, Sonar, Logic Pro X, Ableton Live, etc., and there are at least a dozen of them.

There are a lot of unknown software, that's more, this can make Thundercloud worried, so many software which one should I choose?

He went to a lot of forums, posts, and went to Zhihu to see the evaluation of these software by professional music producers, and finally had a general impression of these software.

"Hey, does the Great Demon King also use FL?"

I accidentally browsed a post, and Lei Yun's eyes suddenly lit up.

The big devil is a DJ that Lei Yun particularly likes, and is currently ranked second in the world's top 100 DJs, with the stage name MagicM, which literally translates to the meaning of magic M, and a group of electronic music fanatics have gathered in the cloud village, and they affectionately call MagicM the big devil.

Not only MagicM, but almost all the well-known top 100 DJs have a localized nickname in Yuncun.

"It seems that there are quite a few people who use this software. ”

Lei Yun took a special look at the FL Studio software and found that many of the top 100 DJs have used it.

Because the icon is an orange fruit, also known as fruit software, the operation seems to be relatively simple and convenient, coupled with the temptation of a free trial in the first month, I finally chose FL, a professional music arrangement software.

"This... ”

But when Lei Yun downloaded this software with a little excitement, as soon as he opened the software, he was immediately dumbfounded.

"How can this be done in English?!"
