Chapter 25: The Second Song
The accompaniment part of "Chivalrous Journey" took Chen Mo about an hour before it was finally recorded.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Mo personally led a few backing singers to do harmonies, so that "Chivalry Walk" only had the last bit of work to be completed - mixing.
"This kind of music production process is like going back to decades ago, and it's really hard to get used to."
The recording director, who had finally poured out the audio tracks one by one, couldn't help but let out a sigh when he was finally busy with the work at hand, and shook his head and sighed.
Since there is an audio tracker, the normal recording of a song is basically to make an electronic audio track tape first, then record the instrument, that is, the instrument accompaniment part, and then play the audio track to do the dubbing, that is, to record the singer, and then record the harmony, and finally the detailed mixing.
When I arrived at Chen Mo, the entire recording rhythm was messed up, almost returning to the old era of decades ago when musicians played and sang at the same time, and then played and sang at the same time.
"At least it was a pleasure, wasn't it?"
Qiu Fangzhu was stroking his beard and smiling beside him.
"yes, it was a great record! This kind of dubbing has been sung over and over again, and I can't find a singer who has broken the sound at all, and recording it is simply the benefit of my generation of recording engineers! If this is put in the young age, will not the recording studios snatch people's brains out of the dog's brain? ”
The recording director nodded, although he still felt that Chen Mo should follow the path of a composer, but he had to admit that Chen Mo's songs were also extremely good, so good that they could easily kill most powerful singers.
Once you do it, you don't need to re-record it, which makes it the easiest thing for both the studio, the musicians, and even the singers themselves.
Of course, this is Chen Mo, it is difficult for other singers to achieve this ideal state, not to mention that those ten sentences of songs can be sung up to eight and a half sentences are out of tune, so the recording engineer must repeatedly sing the idol singer who picks word by word, even the powerful singer occasionally has a time when the tone is accurate or even out of tune, so even in the current era of electronic music, the job of a recording engineer is not so easy.
"This kid will often record songs with us in the future, right?"
So the recording director quickly asked again, rubbing his ears that were a little stiff as he spoke, and wearing heavy headphones for a long time was a big burden on his ears.
"Yes, I will definitely record with us often in the future, but in the future, I am afraid that Lao Quan will not have too much time for you to personally go out and do the work, Xiao Chen is more inclined to let Wen Nuannuan's little girl help him record songs."
Qiu Fang Master nodded.
"Wen Nuannuan? Oh, it's that little girl who is very youthful and energetic, and her heart is quite good, although her hands are still a little raw, but she can barely look at the past...... How do these two know each other? ”
was mentioned by Qiu Fang, and the recording director quickly remembered who Wen Nuannuan was.
"Wen Nuannuan's little girl's life is not very good, a few years ago, her family suffered a thief disaster, not only her parents died in the hands of a prison escaped felon, but the grandmother who survived could not stand the stimulation and had a brain problem, if she didn't happen to go to school in other places, it is estimated that she would not have a chance to survive until now. But that little girl was so strong, and since then she has taken care of her grandmother alone, taking her grandmother wherever she goes......"
Qiu Fangzhu did not answer the recording director's question, but talked about Wen Nuannuan.
"Oh, I can't see it at all, that little girl looks very sunny and positive. Na Cheng, when she has a little experience, she will let the little girl record it in the future, what are we ......" The recording director is not a sympathetic person, he made a decision happily, but after Taitou Yuan glanced at Chen Mo, who was thanking the musicians one by one in the recording studio, he couldn't help but patch himself after all: "I'll just bother a little bit and help check and fill in the gaps!" ”
Qiu Fang Master laughed when he heard this, and said: "I knew that you, an old fellow, would definitely answer me like this." ”
The recording director glanced at Qiu Fangzhu, but did not say anything more.
At this time, Chen Mo also thanked all the musicians, and walked out of the largest recording studio of the Five Music Workshops with Qiu Dalin one after another.
Seeing Chen Mo walking out, recording director Lao Quan hurriedly called a mixer to take over the next work, and then got up to greet him.
"Young man, you have so much talent for composition and conducting, don't you really consider becoming a full-time composer?"
The recording director really couldn't let go of this thought.
"Kwon Lao ......"
Chen Mo really didn't expect to encounter such a problem when he came out.
"Don't don't, just call Lao Quan, I'm like I'm eighty-five, obviously I'm only fifty-eight. Well, if you still can't call it out, it's okay to call Uncle Quan. ”
The recording director was not convinced, so he didn't wait for Chen Mo to say his answer, and corrected him repeatedly.
"Uncle Quan, I still like to sing a little more."
Chen Mo, who had to change his name, replied.
"Well, I knew it was going to be the answer! Nacheng, you hurry up and rest and rest, and then we can record a song, hurry up and be able to mix both songs before ten o'clock tonight...... By the way, will the next song be accompanied live, or will it continue to be recorded as it is now? ”
The recording director, who got the expected answer, was not disappointed, but quickly moved on to the next song to be recorded.
"The accompaniment of the following song is simpler, just record the accompaniment and singing together, and I will trouble the musicians to practice twice before recording, and I should be able to officially start recording."
Chen Mo replied.
At this moment, Chen Mo was a little tired, but he was still within the range of what he could support.
"Da Lin, it's up to you next."
Chen Mo turned his head sideways and said to Qiu Dalin, who was following behind his buttocks.
"Little black brother, you can take a look! The name of my little prince of electric steel has never been my own words! ”
Qiu Dalin clenched his fists and waved them vigorously.
"Xiao Chen, let's take a little rest, it's not bad for a while, and only by keeping the best state can we record the best songs."
Qiu Fang Master interjected with concern.
"Third uncle, you don't care about me, I'm your dear nephew......"
Qiu Dalin quit.
"You? Don't think that sweating is exertion, have you played a total of 100 notes in the past half a day? ”
Qiu Fang Master glanced at Qiu Dalin.
"No, no—"
Poor Qiu Dalin was pierced through the heart with a precise blow.
"I haven't even played enough notes for a hundred, so I'm embarrassed to call here?"
Qiu Fang, who showed an expression of disgust, came with a second blow of understanding.
So, Qiu Dalin, the child, covered his little heart and squatted in the corner of the wall to draw circles.
"Xiao Chen, record the second song well! Although this one, you are using it to thank that girl, but this is the type that definitely has a chance to become popular, and I promise you this with my old bones......"
Qiu Fang Master Shi Shiran turned his head and returned to his kind appearance, as if Chen Mo was his own nephew.
"The second song, what's the name?"
The recording director couldn't help but ask, he still didn't know the name of Chen Mo's second first song.
