The two acted quickly, and Zhong Yingwen was as demanding as possible, and began to make preliminary preparations for Yang Jingxing's later reverberation requirements. Yang Jingxing said that there is no need to do post-production, just record it once, and just one audio track.

Yang Jingxing was ready to hold the guitar inside, and Zhong Yingwen was also waiting in front of the workbench, and he had a rare opportunity to solemnly light up the recording light with his own hands.

But after Yang Jingxing started, Zhong Yingwen was not as professional as Chang Yiming, he became an audience from beginning to end, did not express a single opinion, and did not even move a finger.

A few seconds after Yang Jingxing finished playing and singing, Zhong Yingying remembered and hurriedly turned off the lights and gave a thumbs up to Yang Jingxing behind the glass.

Yang Jingxing went out and said, "Thank you." ”

Zhong Yingwen smiled a little obscenely, nodded vigorously, and sighed: "Sharp...... What beauty?"

Yang Jingxing was embarrassed: "Thank you again." ”

Zhong Yingwen sincerely wished: "I will definitely take it, who can stand it!?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Listen to it again. ”

After listening to it again, Zhong Yingying was so excited that she rubbed her palms with envy and resentment: "It's so cool, the pickle girl who makes music is effortless...... Do you have any photos?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Not now. ”

Zhong Yingwen looked behind her and whispered in anticipation: "Is Cheng Yaoyao beautiful?"

Yang Jingxing turned around and greeted: "Sister Yaoyao is good." ”

Zhong Yingwen is not a fool: "You can scare me." ”

Yang Jingxing please: "Engrave one, Teacher Chang is coming soon." ”

Zhong Yingwen prepared for a moment and requested: "Let's do reverberation, really, do a little theater effect, the appeal is ......" said a lot of his great idea.

Yang Jingxing was worried: "That's really a private life, if it doesn't work, I can't live with you." ”

Zhong Yingwen reprimanded: "How is it possible! Isn't it a student? That's it, people block the killing of the Buddha and the killing of the Buddha, and the soldiers come to cover the water and the earth...... I do it after work, making sure not to be discovered. ”

Yang Jingxing said: "Forget it, it's too late......"

Zhong Yingwen insisted eagerly: "Why is it too late? You can leave now? I will do it for you at noon, and I will give it to you before I get off work...... I always think I'm practicing martial arts!"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Thank you, let's have time to eat together at noon." ”

Zhong Yingwen happily unceremonious: "Okay." ”

Yang Jingxing went back to the studio, Pang Xi had already arrived, spraying water on the plants, and a cup of hot tea had already been placed on the desk.

Pang Xi, who was originally bent over, changed to a squatting posture and reported: "Dai Qing came to get off work yesterday and didn't say anything. ”

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I made an appointment with Zhong Yingying to have lunch together, and I will go together when I have time." ”

Pang Xi nodded, stood up and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Yang Jingxing said: "He did me a favor. ”

Pang Xi asked again: "And Teacher Chang?"

Yang Jingxing said: "It depends. ”

Pang Xi nodded: "Okay." ”

It didn't take long for Dai Qing to come. Still dressed beautifully, with stockings and short skirts, it seems that she is ready to take the route of Cheng Yaoyao. However, there is no delicate makeup on her face, and her false eyelashes look a little dazzling.

After the two met for the first time, Dai Qing said: "I wanted to invite you to dinner yesterday afternoon, but you were already gone when I came." ”

Yang Jingxing said: "I left relatively early yesterday. I've got a couple of musicians, take a look. ”

The list has been made, all of them are qualified musicians, and Yang Jingxing also listed the works they participated in the recording of Hongxing.

There are many people who play musical instruments well, but there are very few who can enter professional sheds. Because time is money, and this saying is even more true in the recording studio. As soon as the shed opened, no boss was willing to burn money and wait for the musicians to familiarize themselves with the practice.

Hongxing is better in this regard, it has its own shed, as long as there is no external rental, the pressure is not great. The musicians who maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with Hongxing are basically divided into two batches, one is the top in the industry, and the other is professional.

Gan Kaicheng explained to Yang Jingxing that with Dai Qing's status in Hongxing Company, he can't let a musician who has a salary of tens of thousands of yuan for a song appear, so he can't choose all the top ones.

When Yang Jingxing selected people, he made some considerations in terms of style, which also reduced the cost.

Dai Qing liked it a little, and said that there were two people who had worked together and were more familiar.

Yang Jingxing was happy: "You help me introduce, I don't even know you." ”

Dai Qing comforted: "I must know what you said." ”

According to the procedure, Yang Jingxing asked Pang Xi to send the musician list to Gan Kai for approval, and he and Dai Qing discussed the song again.

Dai Qing said that he had some new discoveries and feelings, and Yang Jingxing confirmed that they were all better and more correct feelings.

Pang Xi came back soon and said that Gan Kaicheng had signed, but asked Yang Jingxing to contact him himself. Yang Jingxing asked Pang Xi to find Chang Yiming to get the recent schedule of the recording studio, and then plan it with Dai Qing.

Dai Qing also knows what should be recorded before recording an accompaniment, and the studio has only been recording a few external advertising songs recently, so there is plenty of time.

After Ji Lu finished drawing, Yang Jingxing asked Dai Qing to go and get busy himself, and he had to contact the musicians. Dai Qing was willing to help and contact the two she knew.

Yang Jingxing said: "No need, I'll come, do your business, you just need to sing." ”

Dai Qing smiled: "Xie Lu, thank you, then I'll go first." ”

Yang Jingxing contacted the musicians one by one, and he could basically get a long admiration after protecting his home, and there were no major problems with the time arrangement.

The musicians are also professional, and they all want to get the score right away and start getting acquainted with it. Yang Jingxing handed over this task to Pang Xi.

There is still a lot of time in the morning, Yang Jingxing will go to do Tong Yichun's business, and now he has to do a detailed copywriting analysis for each song. What kind of arrangement style to choose and who to find to make it can't be casually said, it must be based on an orderly basis.

When it was almost lunchtime, Yang Jingxing went to the recording department. Chang Yiming and Zhong Yingying had just finished their busy work and were sending a few people away. Since we met, let's introduce it, Yang Jingxing got to know a well-known actress and a department manager of a big advertising company, and the other party also knew what 402 looked like.

After sending people away, Yang Jingxing said to Chang Yiming: "Your apprentice has done me a favor, please invite your master and apprentice to lunch, and Teacher Chang will appreciate his face." ”

Chang Yiming was polite: "Then you guys go." ”

Yang Jingxing pleaded: "I can't say that you helped me so much, and I only invite you now, right?"

Chang Yiming hehe: "What about Lao Gan?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I call him." ”

So lunch became six people, Chang Yiming and Gan Kaicheng both felt that they didn't need to bother, just find a nearby place to get by, and do things in the afternoon.

Yang Jingxing is not familiar with it, and Pang Xi suggested a restaurant in the end, Lan Jingyue supported it, and the men did not object. Chang Yiming drove his apprentice by himself, and Gan Kaicheng was lazy and took the secretary to sit in the back seat of Yang Jingxing.

A few minutes away, but Pang Xi still called to book a box first.

Gan Kaicheng praised: "Pang Xi is becoming more and more capable. ”

Pang Xi was not yet modest, Lan Jingyue was jealous: "It's a pity, let's change!"

Pang Xihe, Lan Jingyue asked, "Four zero two, no opinion, right?"

Yang Jingxing said: "You are welcome to come, but Pang Xi can't leave." ”

Gan Kai was angry, and Lan Jingyue was angry: "You are so greedy...... Ling Wei, do you want it?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "Don't dare." ”

Lan Jingyue sighed: "Women, a good face is a good life." ”

Yang Jingxing was curious: "How did Manager Gan keep you?"

......

During the meal, after listening to Yang Jingxing's envisioned recording of "Dead and Alive", Gan Kaicheng asked Chang Yiming to take Yang Jingxing a little more, after all, he is still a novice.

Yang Jingxing was modest: "I will learn from Teacher Zhong first, and then I will learn from Teacher Chang when I am qualified." ”

Zhong Yingwen is more modest: "I want to learn half of you, I will ......"

Lan Jingyue waited anxiously: "What's the matter?"

Zhong Yingwen shook her head: "It's a pity that I can't learn." ”

Simply finish eating and return to the company. Everyone took a break in the recording department, Yang Jingxing went to call Qi Qingnuo for ten minutes, and then began to officially record the first step of "Dead and Alive", which was to report the bar number and beat.

The beat has a metronome, which is similar to the function of the bar-numbered track, which is equivalent to a coordinate, and several subsequent instrumental vocal tracks are based on this track.

In the past, it was said that some singers recorded a song sentence by sentence, and everyone thought it was funny. Now it has come out word by word, and the music that can't be sung can be pulled up by software and is almost flawless. The difficult thing is post-production, in order to seamlessly connect these words, there must be a reference coordinate.

Of course, Hongxing does not have a singer with a word by word. Those who dare and can record word by word are those who don't need to be on the scene and are very big-name people.

"Dead and Alive" is a change-beat song, with four or two beats and four or three beats, and it is a cross change. Yang Jingxing and Chang Yiming did this thing, Gan Kai was the supervisor, and Zhong Yingwen was watching.

Yang Jingxing knew that some places would have special requirements and should be done specially. Chang Yiming complied, and Gan Kaicheng did not question it. Because Yang Jingxing was precocious and confident, he didn't need to read the score, so although it was cumbersome, he did it quickly.

After doing it, check it against the score again. Dai Qing came, and silently felt it against the beat track, and felt that it was no problem.

Then, Pang Xi came to inform Yang Jingxing that the first musician arrived on time.

In Studio 402, Gan Kai made an introduction, allowing Yang Jingxing and the drummer to get to know each other and then find an excuse to leave. An old drummer, about forty years old, has been in the industry for more than ten years, and is a major in the profession.

The drummer was envious of the equipment of Studio 402, and thanked Xie Pang for the coffee he sent. Yang Jingxing asked the other party for more guidance, after all, his age and qualifications are all juniors.

It only took about ten minutes for the politeness, and then the musician wanted to do something: "Let's listen to MIDI first, can you?"

Yang Jingxing played the accompaniment he made with a synthesizer.

The musician was not surprised by the high quality of the sample, after all, this is Hongxing Company, he just asked: "You made it yourself?"

Yang Jingxing nodded: "It's rough." ”

The musician smiled and shook his head: "Very good." It can be heard that it is not Zhang Zishan, he is not good at drumming, and everything else is good. You're from the Conservatory?"

Yang Jingxing nodded.

The musician guessed, "The boy is up, right?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Almost." ”

The musician is high-end: "I can hear that there is ten years of skill." I've heard you several times, it's all one word, genius!"

Yang Jingxing shook his head again and again: "It's lucky to be a hard worker." ”

Then we discussed that the musician did not have lyrics on the score, but he didn't care, and professionally respected the producer's opinion, and kept making new notes on the score that he had already made many marks.

The professional is different, and I went to the recording studio after three o'clock.

Chang Yiming and the drummer are also old acquaintances, and they don't need to be warm and polite, so they start working directly.

Although Hongxing Company is in a recession, its professional attitude is still there, and five microphones are used to record drums. Zhong Yingwen also learned something, and finely adjusted the position of the wheat sticking into the inside of the kick drum.

Chang Yiming explained to Yang Jingxing that there is no point in the distance and pointing of a microphone, and then what are the differences in the characteristics of each microphone, as for the volume equalization...... It's not something that can be explained clearly in a sentence or two, and it's not something that can be learned by looking at it.

After arranging, Yang Jingxing followed back to the main control room, and watched Chang Yiming explain to him the fur on the fur of each link while doing things.

Ready inside and out, the musicians bring their monitor headphones and listen to the beat bar track to begin. Every subtle sound that comes out of the monitor speakers is so naked, and no flaws can be hidden.

Chang Yiming reminded Yang Jingxing: "A little problem can be adjusted later, and Lao Quan is famous for being ruthless." ”

Zhong Yingwen has a heavy task, operating the computer outside, turning pages on the music on the monitor in front of the drummer.

The drummer is really good, the rhythm is quite accurate, and he has noticed all the marks he has made before. Yang Jingxing continued to mark on the score while listening, just like Chang Yiming.

The drummer finished playing again and again, consciously waiting in place. Yang Jingxing first asked Chang Yiming how he felt, and then also said his own, the two of them basically agreed on the same opinion, and picked out some small faults. Yang Jingxing had some emotional requirements, and felt that he should come again.

Chang Yi called the drummer out, first briefly said two of his requirements, and then said: "Four Zero Two still has some suggestions." ”

The drummer didn't have a stand, tilted his head and began to listen to Yang Jingxing's thoughts.

Yang Jingxing seems to be very clear about the details of the whole song: "...... Here the rhythm guitar will suddenly rise, kick you can be a little heavier, but hihat better be lighter......" He also used the words of Chang Yiming.

The drummer himself had no idea at all, just nodded in agreement. Dai Qing didn't express any opinions at this time, just watched attentively.

Then continued, after two times, Chang Yiming felt that it was basically okay. After confirming that those places could be corrected and synthesized later, Yang Jingxing thanked the drummer together with Chang Yiming and sent him away.

That's all for today, Dai Qing can also leave, very polite: "Teacher Chang has worked hard, Teacher 402 has worked hard." ”

After Dai Qing left, Yang Jingxing chatted with Chang Yiming. Chang Yiming said that this drummer is the most professional among the musicians selected by Yang Jingxing, and the others may be a little troublesome.

The accompaniment of "Dead and Alive" also has to do six accompaniment tracks, and then there are vocals and harmonies. Once the tracks are made, it's time to pinpoint them, correct them, beautify them, and process them one by one. 、

After all the touch-ups are done, then balance all the tracks. Then mix each audio track to make left and right stereo sound, and further make the effect and beautify.

After the stereo sound is made, it needs to be further retouched. After the most, you can come out of the master disk.
