Chapter 380: "Similar Love" (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) Ask for a referral ticket! Ask for a subscription! )
He Miao is the reason for the vocal cords, so he has the current condition of incomplete five tones. Thinking carefully about what she just sang, the middle and low parts are quite accurate, but when it comes to "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", which needs to be raised by an octave, there is obviously a problem, she should be the same as Zhao Xu, the guitarist of Chaos, the vocal cord is missing, and she is out of tune when she sings the high notes. She usually speaks in a low and neutral manner, and it is estimated that she herself knows that she has a problem with incomplete pentatonic sounds, so she usually speaks without raising her pitch.
To say that He Miao's musicality is quite good, when Wei Yimin brought it to He Miao, Du Xinghe also secretly inspected this girl's recording level. After all, he doesn't know Wei Yimin very well, although Wei Yimin was introduced by Li Chuansheng, but he has never dealt with him, who knows if he brought a relative who eats mixed rice.
Du Xinghe took the opportunity to discuss some recording problems with He Miao to try the recording level of this tomboy, and the result was unexpected, this tomboy has quite rich experience in recording, and has formed her own opinions and style on recording, which made Du Xinghe very surprised. Because a recording engineer who can reach this level has long surpassed the level of an assistant and can already be on his own!
Du Xinghe even wondered if Wei Yimin had been asking He Miao to hire him as a coolie for the past two years, and he himself was waiting for the finished product by the side. Because He Miao's rich experience in recording must have been summed up after a large number of recording battles, there are many personal habits and opinions, which are by no means something that can be taught in school.
For example, in the selection of microphones, which is not very important for junior recording engineers, but it is quite important for top recording engineers. He Miao has his own opinions.
Du Xinghe once tentatively asked He Miao if the target singer Bartley came to the cloud world to record his hit work "Bastard" two years ago, among the 12 existing microphones in the cloud world, that microphone recorded the best effect, and he also put down the song set and offered to use the "Shensheng microphone" to record the best effect.
After a little thought, He Miao told him that Bartley's "Bastard" was not suitable for the Shensheng microphone, and should be recorded with Huaqi 149. Because although Bartley's bass is very rich and outstanding, the biggest highlight of the "Bastard" he wants to record is the breadth of the vocal range. and the detailed carving of the sound. Only with Huaqi 149 can the charm of that song be presented perfectly.
Du Xinghe was quite satisfied with He Miao's answer, because among the existing microphones in the cloud world, it is true that Huaqi 149 is the one that can best reflect the details of the singer's voice, and the Shensheng microphone produced by BV. It's a jack-of-all-purpose wheat. It is now available on CD. More than 70% of the songs are recorded with the divine voice, and the timbre of this microphone is very outstanding, and the voice will be very strong when recorded. The low frequency is thick and infectious, and the middle and high frequencies also have a good table xiàn, which can cope with almost all types of singers, but for some special singers, this microphone can't play the best effect.
Just like the king-level Buckley's voice, the layering and presentation are one level higher than that of ordinary singers, and their recordings will be recorded with personal microphones. And it's not a dedicated one, and the top singers have a set of custom microphones to cope with different styles of songs.
Fang Yajun is the same, she has always chosen her own microphone for recording, and their family's private recording studio has purchased a set of diamond seven-star microphones from Wolfsburg, Germany, which is close to one million German marks, which can cope with various types of songs.
He Miao followed Wei Yimin to Fang Yajun's recording studio once, and helped Fang Yajun and Yi Yan record "There Are Lovers in the World", but they were shocked by Fang Yajun's set of microphones at that time! When she came back, she sighed with Du Xinghe, and expressed her ardent hope for the new recording studio in Cloud World! I hope to get a microphone system like Fang Yajun, with that microphone system, there is no need to tune later, and its own timbre is enough to reach the production level!
Du Xinghe also wants to get a set of Qixing wheat to record for the singer of Cloud World, he has already placed an order with Germany, but unfortunately the process of this kind of wheat is very complicated, and it has to be calibrated for a long time before leaving the factory, and it generally takes a year before it can be sent to the customer's recording studio for installation and commissioning, so after the new recording studio of Cloud World is renovated, it can only make the top domestic microphone system to record.
He Miao not only inherited Wei Yimin's mantle in the selection of microphones, but also was very good at some opportunistic techniques. There are many songs where the rhythm of the second and first sections is the same, and there is no need for the singer to repeat the recording twice, and there is a way for the singer to sing it once. While this kind of opportunistic effort is not possible when recording acoustic master, it can be very convenient when recording some one-off event backgrounds. For example, when Xu Nuo participated in some outdoor lip-synching activities, he recorded a lip-synching version of "Little Bird", and He Miao easily recorded it for her.
There are other experiences, she is also very good at opportunistic tricks to help singers save trouble, such as seeing whether the vocals spray microphone, and whether she needs a blowout net, she basically doesn't add as long as the recording is not a lot. If a certain word is sprayed occasionally, she will wait for the singer to finish recording, just take the pop proof cover, and ask the singer to record that sentence again, and when the time comes, only replace the word spray microphone, and nothing else needs to be moved. Du Xinghe didn't know this trick, he saw He Miao make it once, and found that it worked, so he learned it.
In short, the recording level of this tomboy is so high that it completely exceeds Du Xinghe's expectations for her, Wei Yimin said that he brought an assistant over, or he is part-time, but in fact, He Miao's ability is completely able to cope with independent recording, and Cloud World can be regarded as spending half the money on her to do two things, which is quite cost-effective.
Du Xinghe values this tomboy very much, and is ready to train her, and when He Miao graduates in two years, he will hire her full-time to the cloud world, and let her carry a recording team alone to expand the behind-the-scenes strength of the cloud world.
In Du Xinghe's eyes, He Miao's personality is very masculine, she speaks and does things neatly, without the slightest drag, and she is not very trim, let alone reserved, from time to time she has to burst a few dirty words, and her tone is completely like a boy, she has a lot of movements and is also very masculine, she likes to hook her shoulders and back, and she loves to shake her feet.
I didn't know He Miao was a girl, and after contacting her, I definitely thought she was an unruly handsome guy. The woman ran into her in the women's bathroom. Definitely going to be taken aback.
Even Du Xinghe, who knows that she is a daughter, usually treats her as a boy, because she is a pure man from the bones. She must have exploded in her last life, and she only became a daughter in this life, but unfortunately her soul was not replaced.
For a long time, He Miao has been a kind of masculine boy with little intelligence and talent to Du Xinghe, and it was not until this time that he heard He Miao sing, and Du Xinghe realized that this guy still had a woman's side, and she was not a pure master of 24K. It's 18K.
When Du Xinghe came to play in front of the piano room. He Miao has finished singing "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky". This night, she had to stay up late in the company to record an engineering task assigned by the soundtrack team, and the first half of the recording was finished, and her ears were numb, so she came to the piano room to relax.
To know. The environment of a recording studio is completely different from that of a normal room. The sound you hear in the sound recorder's headphones is also quite different from what you usually hear in your life. What they hear is a sound that is so clean that it is dry, like a towel wrung through water. Because the installation in the shed is based on the principle of sound absorption, the purpose is to eliminate the sound of singing reflected from the walls of the house. Only the voice produced by the singer is revealed, which is called dry, and the recording engineer hears almost all of this dry sound, looking for intonation.
The monitor headphones worn by the singer himself when singing are also echoing with this kind of dry sound, this sound is very different from the usual singing voice, some new singers enter the studio to record, the first time they hear their own dry voice, they will even be startled! I'm not used to this kind of voice, and I don't feel comfortable with it, and the feeling of singing is completely gone.
When Du Xinghe first recorded "Little Bird" for Xu Nuo, Xu Nuo was very uncomfortable with his dry voice, and when he sang the high part, he always exerted too much force, which made Du Xinghe angry, and scolded her and cried her several times, because she had released records in the era before, and she should not make this kind of newcomer who is not suitable for dry sound. Even if she didn't record, she should know what it was like. It's a pity that Xu Nuo can't always grasp it.
Later, Du Xinghe went to Hongyan to feel Hongyan's recording studio and found out that Xu Nuo was not suitable for the cloud world, it turned out that the grade of the cloud world recording studio was too low, and the dry sound sung by the singer was very "weird", the taste could not be described, Du Xinghe himself has been using this recording studio since he came to this world, so he is more accustomed to it. But Xu Nuo used to record in the advanced recording studio, and it was all two years ago, after coming to work in the cloud world, she has not had the opportunity to set foot in the studio to record, but she stopped in the recording studio to officially record, and she was very uncomfortable.
After He Miao came to the cloud world, he also complained directly about the recording studio of the cloud world, thinking that the effect was too poor, and his ears were wooden after listening to too much!
But knowing that Cloud World was spending five million to build a new recording studio, she stopped complaining about anything and looked forward to a new working environment.
Now here, she's just going to make do with it.
On this day, she recorded her ears numb, and she came out to rest. Seeing that no one in the company stayed up late on duty tonight, she was alone, so she came to the piano room and sang freely to relax her spirit. In fact, when she sang this song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", her tone and feelings were still very masculine, but because the tone was raised by one level, she was not as pressed as her voice as usual, so her voice showed some feminine texture.
But she didn't like her voice very much, she knew that she had a problem with incomplete pentatonic sound, and if it weren't for the fact that this problem was more obvious when she sang with her voice suppressed, she would definitely be singing with her voice suppressed.
But it doesn't matter how you sing it, no one listens anyway.
In front of outsiders, He Miao never sings, even though she likes to sing very much. But because it was too hard to sing in the kind of voice she really liked, and she didn't want others to hear her feminine voice that seemed very contrived to herself, so she simply stopped singing in front of outsiders. Only when she is herself, she relaxes and sings to stretch her mood.
At this time, after singing Du Xinghe's song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", another Du Xinghe's work came to He Miao's mind, "Similar to Love" that she preferred.
Accompanied by a simple guitar melody, she sang this song "Similar to Love" again, and she still sang it in a more relaxed female voice, but unlike "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" with a persistent masculine love, when singing this song, her voice turned out to be a little tangled.
The musicality is at the level of Du Xinghe, and as soon as he heard He Miao sing this song "Similar to Love", from the first sentence, he felt a little interesting.
……
I'm standing on the roof~
The light and shadow of dusk~
I hear ~the sound of love coming~
Subtle reaction~
I suddenly remembered you~
This tacit understanding ~ feels like a mystery ~ ……
I'm a little anxious~
I'm also a little angry~
You don't give up ~ okay not ~ I'm crossing the street~
Where are you~
This road ~ I hope to go down with you ~ ……
Recently, I've been with you~
They all have the same mood~
That's something like love~
On the same day, I found that love was approaching~
That's love~not maybe~
……
Don't forget jì~
You have to believe in yourself~
Give me some love-like responses~
The world is very ruthless, thank you~
Say ~ love you ~ I'd love to hear it ~
……
This "Similar to Love" comes from Xiao Yaxuan's 08-year-old album "Three-Faced Eve", because the melody of this song is slightly retro, very similar to an old song, and Xiao Yaxuan's singing voice uses a singing voice similar to Mo Wenwei's clear and sensual voice even if it is very painful, so many people mistakenly think that the original singer of this song is Karen, but in fact, the original singer of this song is Elva Xiao Yaxuan.
The lyrics of this song are very exquisite, and the collocation of the song is also very moving.
If you don't know the background of this song, just look at the words of this song, and even listen to Xiao Yaxuan's singing, the average music fan will definitely think that this song is probably just a psychological description of a pair of men and women who have feelings for each other but have not yet made a clear love relationship.
However, musicians with connoisseurship, after listening to Xiao Yaxuan's interpretation, will definitely taste the connotation of this song is actually very mysterious.
The soundtrack of this song is not a sweet tone, but a beautiful sad tone! It can even be said to be a painful tone!
Because this song is not about love between the opposite sex at all, but about the kind of "love-like" love between people of the same sex! (To be continued......)
