Chapter 177: Eddie's hesitation

() The inner room of the sound control room.

Eddie, the sound engineer, placed his right hand lightly on the volume fader of one of the tracks of the 32-track mixer, a little undecided.

Looking at the young figure on the stage below who was shaking his body and "hi" with guitarist Andy, and listening to the cheers and shouts of the audience pouring in from the open listening window, Eddie's face became cloudy, and a faint regret welled up in his heart.

During the rehearsal for the finals, what he said to Ye Zi was not against his will. Ye Zi's singing in the semi-finals made him appreciate it very much, and he really liked this song "The Legend of the Hungry Wolf" very much.

However, no matter how much he likes and appreciates Ye Zi and this "Legend of the Hungry Wolf", compared to money, this small personal preference becomes insignificant.

Without much thought, Eddie gladly accepted the other party's request.

There is not much risk, and the rewards are considerable, so such a choice is not difficult for Eddie to make. It's just that Eddie feels a little guilty about the person he is going to "repair". After singing in the semi-finals, he also knew that if nothing else, the Ye Zi player he wanted to "repair" was the most likely to win the championship in the finals.

And what such a championship means to a young singer like Ye Zi, Eddie also knows it.

However, wealth touches people's hearts!

If you want to blame, you can only blame this Ye Zi for blocking the way for others to win the championship, and his luck is a little worse.

That's how Eddie comforted himself.

But now, Eddie, painfully discovering that all the means he had prepared, had been dissolved by this singer who was a little too young in a very short time.

There is no turning back from the bow!

Now that he has made a move, Eddie is sure that he will not simply stop there. As Ye Zi's singing continued, by now, Eddie had turned down the volume of the microphone to just over half of it.

It's just that Eddie didn't expect it at all. This damn young man was still able to maintain the volume of the microphone. It's like he has a megaphone attached to his vocal cords, and the lower Eddie's volume fader goes, the volume of his own singing increases.

What a freak this is!

In Eddie's more than ten years of career as a sound engineer, he has never met a freak singer like Ye Zi.

Eddie, a singer with a big voice, has encountered too many singers, but no singer has a voice as big as Ye Zi now. There is no singer who can continue singing unharmed when Eddie pulls down almost half of the volume on the microphone.

Eddie started to have a headache.

Now, the microphone volume has dropped to an extremely dangerous point. At this time, as long as Ye Zi dares to make a heart and hand over the microphone to anyone else to say a word, the "greasy" on these singing microphones will be known by everyone.

This, this is terrible!

Eddie already smells danger.

So his right hand on the volume fader didn't dare to continue to make any more movements. The only thing he's still thinking about right now is whether or not to do something with the equalizer. Let Ye Zi's singing timbre fundamentally change, and go to the most difficult timbre.

But in this way, the possibility of Eddie's own exposure has greatly increased, and he has to think carefully.

After the semi-final singing, Ye Zi's voice characteristics have long been remembered clearly by these judges. They can accept small changes when singing on the spot, but big changes are really risky.

This is also the reason why in the beginning, Eddie did not use his hands on the equalizer. As soon as the equalizer moves, the change in sound is too noticeable. As long as one judge or supervisor disagrees with this. Eddie would be unable to eat and walk around.

The only person who can do the work of the equalizer is Eddie, the sound engineer. Once such a situation arises, it is questioned. He had no way to defend himself. He was very clear about the attitude of the TV station executives towards this competition, and Eddie would never do such a stupid thing for the sake of a little money and ruining his future at the TV station.

But now, can it continue to be done?

Perhaps, a small increase in high frequency will make Ye Zi's voice a little sharper, until the audience can't stand it?

Eddie was pondering such thoughts.

But deep down in his heart. There was another thought that had been trying to persuade Eddie to stop and stop getting involved.

Eddie hesitated.

In the studio, more than half of the audience stood up from their seats under the drive of Ye Zi's "wolf howl" and gestures, and began to follow Ye Zi's movements to twist and howl in place.

The atmosphere in the studio has broken through the house. "Hi" to the sky.

"The Legend of the Hungry Wolf" was originally a highly inflammatory song that was extremely suitable for live singing, and Ye Zi's singing tonight had a strong impact, and the audience's fatigue after a long time of excitement slowly subsided, and a new round of excitement began to appear. They listened more to it.

So they stood up.

So they twisted.

So they howled.

The noise shattered all the fatigue and exhaustion of the audience, and made them full of passion again and fully devote themselves to Ye Zi's singing.

Tang Nu's big drum was urged again, and the drum stick drew an afterimage in his hand. On the basis of Ye Zi's original arrangement, he temporarily added a lot of drums and heavy hits, so that the momentum of the whole interlude was even more wanton, and the "hi" was extreme.

Lead guitarist Andy, of course, refused to lag behind, and with the synthesizer and string group firmly underpinning, he and Tang Nu competed with each other.

Donnu's drums are strong, and he attacks him with large sections of sharp distortion tones. As soon as Tang Nu's drum beat was closed, Andy's guitar skills flew out immediately.

What a long-span jump, push strings, point fingers, pull rod rocker, wow wow sound

A variety of electric guitar unique skills are endlessly in his hands. The audience was dazzled and listened to very comfortably.

The original sixteen-bar interlude was more than doubled under the impromptu solo of Don Nu and Andy. This kind of impromptu solo, Tang Nu often plays like this during their usual rehearsals, but in the scene of competitions or concerts, such "crazy play" still rarely appears.

Good chance tonight. Ye Zi's musical literacy ensures that no matter how Tang Nu "plays", he will definitely be able to get in when it is time for him to sing.

So Tang Nu started on a whim, Andy immediately followed, and the others did their own performances step by step, so that the two musicians who were interested in it could "play" happily.

The level and tacit cooperation of the band of Tang Nu are fully reflected in this impromptu solo.

"I'm sorry sir, you can't go inside."

Eddie, who was hesitating, suddenly heard the voice of an assistant from outside the sound control room, followed by another unfamiliar male voice.

"I'm Sun Yun from the supervision team, and I need to talk to Mr. Eddie immediately."

The voices of both sides are not very clear in the noisy environment of the sound control room. But the name "Sun Yun" Eddie heard clearly.

With a long sigh, Eddie didn't hesitate any longer. He quickly restored all the hands and feet that had moved on the mixer, walked over and opened the door to the inner room.

"Is it Supervisor Sun? Please come in. ”

Sun Yun strode into the inner room of the sound control room, listened attentively, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. (To be continued......)
