Volume 7 Rise!Orson Manor 23 If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools 01

After a few steps, Vic's inspired training ended, and Xu Zheng asked Vic to keep up this training while he began to be exposed to various types of rock, and finally focused his performance direction on several types of metal rock. Because these, especially heavy metal rock, are the most extreme in terms of volume, masculinity, and dramatic style, which is very suitable for Vic's own style.

When Vic was really able to sing well, Xu Zheng didn't tell anyone, not even the members of the Starlight Song and Dance Troupe. He plans to surprise everyone, and he also intends to make Vic cheer up after seeing everyone's expressions, and build up his self-confidence. For this very obedient big guy, Xu Zheng is more and more in love, and always feels that he is like Mark 2, which makes people uncontrollably want to pat his head and praise him. Forehead...... Very much like treating an obedient puppy......

Leaving the practice and learning to Vic himself, Xu Zheng went back to the development of props and instruments.

The current music is still too scarce, Xu Zheng carefully calculated, he has seen and can use the human seven-stringed lyre, flute, triangle, elven mosa, beast tambourine, and later taught Joe the Irish elbow bagpipe, there are really very few. Compared with the colorful musical instrument genealogy of the previous life, the little bit of the Aris continent is simply the gap between the poor middle peasants and the emperor.

I have to admit that the level of musical instruments in the Aris continent is relatively low. As far as we can see, the vast majority of musical instruments are lyre, and the aristocracy generally uses the lyre, and the bard also commonly uses the lyre, as if it was the first choice among musical instruments.

Xu Zheng paid out of his own pocket to exchange a lyre in the merchant to experiment, and it turned out that this instrument was even inferior to the six-string guitar of his previous life. The seven-string scales are not clearly separated, and the meniscus has no resonance mechanism, which is strictly speaking, a beautiful thing to look at. ::: It's very elegant, it has a quaint aesthetic and is full of visual effects, but in fact the effect of the performance is really unsatisfactory.

If you insist on its advantages, one is that its sound is more ethereal and elegant, and the other is that in the continent of Aris, it has a good mass base, and there are not a few people who can play this music, among which there are not many skilled ones, such as a male elf named Auerbach Night Whisper among the elven guards. He is not only good at the wind instrument of the elves, but also plays the seven strings.

Therefore, among the several musical instruments identified by Xu Zheng first, the lyre and the guitar were the first to be discharged. Although the lyre has such and such shortcomings, its appearance and ethereal and melodious sound are still very impressive, and this advantage cannot be erased. Then there is the advanced guitar, which is one of the instruments that can also be counted as a pentatonic instrument, which is compared to the lyre. With the resonance cabinet structure, the sound quality is of course more mellow and excellent, and people with a foundation in the lyre should be able to play well with just a few adaptations.

Next up is the Steeler, whose unique sound, full range of 88 keys, has always been loved by composers. It has played an important role in almost all forms of music such as pop, rock, jazz and classical, and based on its breadth, Xu Zheng believes that it will inevitably shine in the other world as well, enriching the spectrum of instruments in the other world.

But this thing is good. It's quite difficult to manufacture.

Take the drawings and go to find the help of the dwarves and gnomes, the dwarves naturally needless to say, as long as you draw the parts, give the dimensions and requirements, these dwarves with strange talents will always make it unexpected.

And when the gnome flipped through the drawings. I actually asked, "This is called a piano? It's very similar to the mechanical polyphonic percussion piano, a dwarf instrument." ”

Xu Zheng was stunned, and then ecstatic It has been said, "In all musical instruments." The piano is most like a machine. It's simply a kind of machine, a machine that people operate by hand. When man and machine are combined, when man and machine meet, it suddenly becomes well-informed!"

Combined with this sentence, combined with the dwarf's preference for science and machinery, the piano was completely born for them and appeared in response to them. When Xu Zheng handed over the design drawings of the piano with perfect post-modern development, he found that they had developed a relatively perfect second-generation original work in piano history---- mechanical polyphonic percussion.

Yes, the piano has gone through two important steps in its development in ancient times. Plucked piano vs. percussion piano. And the dwarf people have always had a soft spot for all kinds of mechanical products. It makes perfect sense to be able to develop a percussion-like piano-like instrument. On the other hand, it is inevitable that the dwarfs will have someone to play it. This solves two problems at once, the appearance of the piano and the player, all of them!

The remaining problem was for the pygmy musicians to learn to adapt to this new type of mechanical multi-room percussion. Because as a mature instrument, it is many times stronger than the original dwarf people, and the difficulty and required playing skills are also many times greater.

First of all, it has been expanded from the original 28 keys to 88 buildings, and for the first time, there is a distribution and combination of black and white buildings. In terms of structure, it is much more complex, and the improvement is the improvement of sound quality and the expansion of the vocal range. It is also equipped with a foot-operated ground strong and soft sound mechanism, which cannot be compared with the primitive things of the dwarf land in terms of emotional changes and expressive strength.

When a finished product was made, the dwarf musician stared at it, completely stunned, and could not imagine that such a thing could possibly appear.

When I tried it out, I found that this new type of piano with a complex structure has a more expressive sound, richer sound layers, and can directly control the change of sound and play fast notes through the strength of the finger touch keys. At the same time, the timbre changes are subtle, the timbre contrast is clear, from extremely light passages to very loud passages, the dynamic range is full, and the timbre maintains a harmonious balance in the keystrokes range. The result of the experiment can be described in two words: perfect!

Perhaps the measures proposed by Xu Zheng to transform the Lingmei aircraft were just the effect of a stone thrown into the calm lake. The design and manufacture of the piano made Xu Zheng's name resound throughout the dwarf clan. All the little ones identified with Xu Zheng's status as a master-level mechanic through this complex thing.

How can you design this thing if you are not a master?

When Sang Duoduo and Lingmeimei looked at Xu Zheng from the angle of looking up, Xu Zheng was sweaty and ashamed...... He admits that he is a master, but a master of plagiarism, not a master of design and manufacturing. For Xu Zheng, the piano has appeared a long time ago, he just painted it and asked someone to make it......

Of course, Xu Zheng didn't dare to say these things, so he could only accept the praise and admiration of others with a cheeky face. Well...... I guess I think it is a compliment to the magic arrays I added to the piano, these magic arrays can play the role of dividers and resonance boxes, and the piano is also a semi-magic prop after being processed in this way. This is a skill that I learned in the other world, and I designed it myself, and it is not plagiarism.

The first steel serpent sample was a large triangular steel serpent, which was coated with varnish from the elves, maintaining the natural color and grain of the wood appearance, which was quite gorgeous and beautiful. When the gnome's pianist formally sat on the bench to practice playing, he found a rather embarrassing problem: the dwarf's height did not match the piano at all.

Their hands are too short, and the distribution of eighty-eight health makes them unable to reach no matter how hard they try. And the feet are also short, and the strong and soft foot pedals cannot be stepped on at all.

Everyone saw the embarrassing situation of the dwarf luthier sitting up, and everyone was big.

Since the piano cannot be done too little, and the result of doing too little is a direct loss of timbre and sound quality, it is unlikely that the piano will be greatly modified, and it is also too likely that other races that have not been exposed to the piano will relearn the piano from scratch in a short period of time. This puts us in a dilemma.

Fortunately, the methods are all thought of by people, and the degree of dwarf brains is not covered. There is no need for Xu Zheng to speak, the performance method of two ensembles playing the same piano came into being, and the speed is so fast that Xu Zheng is not as fast as the modern duet method. At the same time, the first piano sample was dismantled, and the second four pianos were produced, the position of the strong and soft pedals was raised, the height of the chair appeared, and the performance form of two gnomes playing one piano in unison was also finalized.

Gangser, as well as the pianist, just borrowed Xu Zheng's head, the skill and wisdom of the dwarf and the dwarf, and was born in the Aris continent!

In addition, except for leaving a piano for Xu Zheng to use for the performance of the Starlight Song and Dance Troupe, the other three were all taken away by the dwarfs and put into the clan as a musical instrument for the regular work. According to the message of the dwarf patriarch Ling Meimei: I helped you build them, and I gave you the playing manpower, and it wouldn't be too much to take you away, right? Anyway, now the dwarf and Orson Manor are a family, and it is the same to put you there as I put here. Besides, put it there for you, will anyone be able to play?

Look, that's right...... It's mean.

But Xu Zheng could only nod honestly--- except for the dwarf, no one would. Neither will you. It's okay for him to put his finger up and hit him key by key, but if you want to play a tune, it's a widow giving birth to a son--- it's impossible!
