Analysis:

In terms of software, we mainly use cooledit, hereinafter referred to as ce. There are several plug-ins.

Cooledit pro 2.0 (with Chinese and registration machine)

BBE acoustic wave maximizer

Ultrafunk3 (in Chinese) Wave3.0 effect pack

Download address: online search. I don't have it here either, hehe. Description of the installation section:

The installation of ce is very difficult and simple, and it will be fine all the way. After installing the main program, run the localization program localization. Then decompress. Edit.Pro.v2.0.KEY.SN.zip, including the registration machine cep2reg. Copy to the installation directory of ce, run, and enter the registration code. The registration code is in the nfo document, just post it directly and ask me:

Name: Peter Qvistgaard

Serial number: 200-00-37YQOQ7L

After registering with this, the software has no restrictions. And it's a Chinese version, which is very easy to use.

Plug-ins are installed as follows:

BBE Sonic Maximizer creates a new folder dx under ce's installation directory, and installs all plug-ins in this directory, which is usually done online to facilitate plug-in management. The registration code of this plug-in is

Serial number: SMV 100W 1002507.

Wave3.0 effect package z-wgb30 1.zip Install this into the dx directory, too.

This is based on Hong Qi's practice:

Don't get the wrong path. After the installation is completed, install the localization package with the same path. As long as there is no problem with the path, it is generally not wrong. The problem with this plug-in is generally a path problem. Some tutorials also say that another VST directory should be built to install VST plug-ins, but it is troublesome and unnecessary, so simply remove the VST option when installing. Does not affect the use.

Now you can open the main program of ce. If you open the monorail interface, click the menu effect and refresh the bottom effect list, all the installed plug-ins will be fine. If it is a multi-gauge interface, click the sound wave icon in the upper left corner to switch to the monorail. This button is often used.

You can start recording at this time. Get rid of other people in the dormitory and block the door tightly. Avoid other people who can't stand it coming in and cutting you (be our cover, don't hit your face). Prepare water to moisten your throat.

Oh, I forgot an important thing, which is accompaniment. Accompaniment can only be downloaded from the internet. I recommend several websites:

Listen to music for an hour, Xiaoshi/

163888 China Entertainment Portal 163888/E Accompanying Edition Go/Sort/Index

888.dhren/index,, Wang Xiu, but I can't seem to go on these days.

Description of Walker Studio wk2 1 1/index3: Many websites have problems, some can be downloaded and some can't. Some can rain today, but not in a few days. In short, it is accumulation. Try more. It's in ftp after the rain, and I have it here. But I don't know how to upload it to the rain, or which ftp to upload it to, which can be saved for a long time.

The downloaded accompaniment is generally in mp3 format, which can be directly imported into ce. However, there are exceptions, and if the compression levels are different, problems will arise. In this case, it is enough to recode with ce and change the ratio to the same ratio.

Accompanying yourself is not effective and is not recommended. Here is also an introduction. Open ce, open an mp3 file, menu effect waveform amplitude channel mixing, select voice cutting, and confirm. It can eliminate some sounds. There is also a software called darts karaoke, and the effect is not satisfactory. Maybe I haven't found the right way yet. Theoretically, it is difficult to separate the mixed parts, and the elimination of parts is only done according to the difference of parts and accompaniment frequency. Some songs work well, while others don't work. Anyway, it is definitely not as good as the original singer's accompaniment. Doing it yourself is only the best way.

From now on. Open ce and create a new project. The interface is as follows. On the right is the multi-table interface. Right-click the first track, insert the audio file, and put the accompaniment on the first track. Like this. Audio blocks can be dragged, and you can right-click to drag them. So be careful not to move the mouse when using the right-click menu, or the time will be inaccurate.

Let's start recording. Click on the second track, and there are three buttons in front of it, R S M. Click on R, and R turns red, indicating recording on this track. There are several playback control buttons in the lower left corner, and the one in the red circle is the recording button. Put the vertical line a little ahead of where you started singing, and start recording from here.

Make sure you are familiar with the melody of the song and then click the record button. When to start singing, there should be no problem in grasping the rhythm. Why don't we ... okay, let's start recording now. Put on headphones to play accompaniment and record pure human voice. There may be noise if accompanied by speakers. It is best to sing paragraph by paragraph. Don't sing it all at once, it's easy to revise and ensure that every paragraph is the best. After recording one paragraph, change to another. Until all the songs are sung.

Record the most important point: prevent wheat spraying. The so-called wheat spraying is the servant's voice made by the air hitting the wheat. This kind of sound is difficult to deal with in the later stage, so it should be prevented during the early recording. A better way is to put the wheat at the height of the nose, or under the chin, rather than at the mouth. Avoid the airflow of singing rushing directly to the wheat. This is a unique secret. )

Now the audio block is aligned with the accompaniment. In order to prevent future editors from accidentally moving the audio block, the time of the audio block is locked. You can right-click and select the confinement time. You can also have a small lock icon on the toolbar above, put the mouse on it and have a hint to lock the audio block. Click this and the result is the same. After the audio block is locked, a small lock icon will appear, so that the audio block will not be moved by mistake when the right button is operated.

Don't listen at this time, or you will be beaten and your voice will be hard. Let's do the following. I won't explain the principle for the convenience of operation, because I don't know. Those who have the patience to learn can adjust those parameters themselves. I told you how to do it. There are three or four steps. It's hard and simple.

The first step is noise reduction.

Switch to monorail editing mode and create a new file. Click the red record button in the lower left corner to record a blank noise file. Try to keep this kind of environmental noise when singing just now. Then the left effect noise eliminates the noise reducer.

Point noise sampling, adjust the noise reduction level to 60-70%, too much noise reduction will lose the sound. The point is closed after sampling is completed.

Select the first audio block you recorded, and then click the button in the upper left corner to switch to monorail editing mode.

Click the noise reducer again, don't turn it off this time, and click OK. Therefore, the noise reduction process is completed. This step is mainly to remove current noise and environmental noise.

Step 2 High-pitched excitation

This step uses the plug-in BBESonicMaxizer. Select directx in the effect and double-click BBESonicMaxizer. Select the voice in the preset effect. This is human voice. If you are patient, you can adjust the parameters manually.

Step three, press the limit.

Pressure limiting is to make the sound more balanced after processing, maintain consistency and coherence, and will not make the sound big and small. Do it with c4 waves.

Double-click wave c4. Load the preset option pop vocal. This is also for voice processing. Just select the default settings.

reverberation

This step is to turn decay into magic. Go ahead.

ReverbR3 in Utlrafunkfx is used for reverberation. Or choose in directx.

Find a suitable one among the preset options for you to use. Open the preview and listen to the effect while adjusting. Make sure it fits. "Personally, I think that if the reverberation is increased, it will make people's voice look fuzzy and false, and if it is decreased, it will make the sound look dry. Everyone slowly explores and has experience after recording a few more times. " That's what nnd said I just don't know how to adjust it.

But I think it's easier for ce to have its own reverberator. The effect is commonly used. The perfect reverberation of the effector can be directly selected from the preset alto concert hall, which can be open or warm. If you are patient, try to adjust these parameters.

The default settings are used for simplicity, but the effect is good. It will be more troublesome to adjust yourself, and it may not have the default effect. If you are familiar with the properties of sound, you can also tune it yourself.

Go back to the multi-gauge interface and listen to the final effect. If the recorded sound is small, right-click the audio block, adjust the volume of the audio block, and increase or decrease the volume appropriately.

Finally, the mixture shrinks. Save the menu file as ... Output mp3 to save.

Show the novice: the use of EQ (equalizer)

First introduce the effect of the next frequency band, which is what many people want to know ~

Subwoofer: below 85hz

Including bass and drums. I can't hear any notes at this low frequency.

This frequency band can't be tampered with, or the monitor and ears will be destroyed together.

And the songs we recorded, this frequency band is all noise, cut.

Bass: 85-250 Hz

The wonderful bass of modern music is in the range of 90-200 Hz. Doing some small lifting can increase the sense of scene, move the sound position back and enhance transparency.

Bass: 250-800 Hz

The sound in this frequency band is indispensable, but it has a general sense of noise, and more will make people feel uncomfortable.

If you know spectrum analysis, you can adjust it according to the frequency bands of other instruments. The loudness of other instruments is low in frequency band, and the loudness of other instruments is high in frequency band.

For amateur recording, the simplified suggestion is to keep 250-500hz still and lower it slightly by 500-800hz, so that the timbre will not be too stiff.

Intermediate frequency: 800-6 kHz

People's hearing is most sensitive to this area, and people's voices are also concentrated here. Raising this area will enhance the brightness. The specific adjustment scheme should be customized according to the timbre, recording environment and desired effect.

High frequency: 6-8 kHz;

This area is the high-pitched part of the general sound. Pushing can increase the brightness of the sound, which is a cheating method, but professional mastery will do it.

UHF: 8-20kHz;

This part is the clear part of percussion instruments. At 1 1- 12khz, the sound quality can be improved and * better sound can be obtained *. In fact, this method is used in commercial recording to make people think that the fidelity of cd is above 192k.

However, under our recording conditions, upgrading this frequency band can only hear hiss, so enough is enough.

There is no point in explaining it any more. Let me talk about my personal habit, which is to do eq first and then motivation (if necessary), and use ce's own graphics.

Master of emotional intelligence

Eq cut off the cut below 100hz, and this eq is basically adjusted according to the pile above; After all the processing, carry out eq again according to the quality of recording and the effect of pressure limitation, or use the classic in the built-in eq.

V or popband, of course, if the pressure is hard enough, this step is unnecessary, otherwise it would be too exaggerated to use eq in winamp.

As for other usages, people here are groping and trying again and again, and wk and Xiangxiang are no exception. Everyone always thinks that the master has secrets and is not suitable for post-processing of recording. Because everyone's timbre, equipment and requirements are different, there is no unified and simple method, so we can only try again and again.

Pitch and rhythm

There are many basic forms of music, but the most important ones are pitch, rhythm, timbre, speed, dynamics, harmony and so on. The most important things here are pitch and rhythm. It can be said that pitch and rhythm are the basis of a musical work. In order to sing a song well, accurate and stable singing is the most fundamental and basic content. Without this guarantee, everything else will be inferior, and there are many reasons for poor intonation or wrong rhythm. I can sum up the following points:

( 1)

Lack of musical sense leads to poor intonation or rhythm. Music is an art of hearing, but art has talent and understanding. Because people have different sensitivity and ability to music, their understanding of pitch and rhythm will be different. This is an objective existence. Therefore, due to the lack of ability to distinguish between pitch and rhythm, you can't distinguish and feel your own pitch and rhythm when singing. It should be said that there is still such a situation, and there are not many 163888. You can try this method: randomly create a melody on a fixed pitch instrument to see if you can imitate humming, or play a rhythm to see if you can shoot better with your palm. This is a way to test your musical literacy. Friends who have such problems mainly listen to the original songs and carefully analyze the pitch and rhythm of the songs. You can try to listen and sing more and slowly reach a state of "inseparable songs", and the pitch and rhythm will gradually become accurate. For friends who have this problem,

It takes a lot of patience and effort. But you will find pleasure in learning music in this process!

(2) Poor singing leads to poor intonation or rhythm.

There is a sense of distinguishing pitch from rhythm, but there is no correct technical method.

The pitch is not accurate and the rhythm is unstable. For example, when I was studying in college, one of my classmates was a vivid example: he studied piano since he was a child and his piano skills were excellent. Generally, the piano player in primary school has a better judgment of pitch rhythm than ordinary people, and he practiced his ears well at school (note: ear training is a music subject, mainly to train his ears to judge pitch), but he always sings out of tune. Why shrimp? ! This is because he is not a vocal music major, and his singing skills can't reach a good state. He was short of breath and talking at the top of his voice. Of course, the rhythm is not allowed to mess around! Therefore, it is not enough to be conscious, but also to have certain singing skills to achieve "unity of form and spirit." If so, friends should pay more attention to training their breath and vocalization, so that the pitch and rhythm can meet the standards required by their hearts!

In addition to the above two situations, such as when recording, the ear can't hear the accompaniment due to technical problems, etc., which will also affect the pitch rhythm, which will be discussed later in the next article.

(2) Singing skills.

(1) Breath and breath

Anyone who has studied physics knows that the physical cause of sound is that external factors impact the object, and the object vibrates to produce sound waves of different lengths, which causes the surrounding air to vibrate to produce sound. Therefore, the power source of singing is breathing, and the use of good breath can make the physical characteristics of vocal cords play a better role, thus singing a good and complete song. Therefore, the use of breath is one of the most important skills in singing.

Several ways of breathing: (named after popular words)

1. Sigh and inhale:

As we all know, sighing is a common phenomenon in our daily life. It's relaxed and downward. Conducive to the relaxation of inspiratory muscle groups, so as to better inhale the breath. The specific way is to sigh first and then inhale. Your mind is mainly thinking about sighing, not inhaling. while

After the breath is discharged with a sigh, that is, the work of the expiratory muscle group is completed, and then the inspiratory muscle group will start working immediately.

-Inhale, and this cycle will be completed automatically. If your mind is thinking about inhalation, you will always keep your inspiratory muscles in one place.

If you can't relax in this working state, it is difficult to breathe normally. Note: when you sigh, just suck there, don't be artificial.

Do compulsory action. Keep sighing in the process of singing, every phrase is like this, forming a good breathing cycle. under

Face, combine singing and practice sighing and inhaling. Try to sigh (spit) out your breath before you are ready to sing, and then start singing when the breath is naturally inhaled.

2. Odd-smelling inhalants:

Smelling fancy inhalation method is easy to make the air suck deeply, and it is easier to understand and master without inhalation sound and redundant action. When smelling the flowers, people's mood is particularly pleasant because of the flowers. It is a feeling of relaxation and excitement to distinguish them with special care. Specifically, when inhaling, the upper body is completely relaxed, the waist line is very comfortable to relax, and then the chest also has a sense of relaxation. The increase of internal space makes the breath naturally flow in. This kind of inhalation is both relaxing and moderate, which makes people very excited and makes the chest feel spacious. Singing with this feeling of inspiration has a smooth breath and a mellow voice.

You can open your mouth or close your mouth. When you shut up, you can't close it too tightly, which will affect the speed and flexibility of air intake. When simply practicing inhalation, you can use closed inhalation. When singing, it is better to open your mouth naturally and inhale through your nose at the same time. Whether you inhale with your mouth closed or your nose open at the same time, the most important thing is to experience the feeling of breath flowing into your body.

3. Accidental inhalation

Sudden inhalation is to use the rapid physiological response of people when they are surprised to achieve the purpose of rapid inhalation. This kind of inhalation is fast and deep, which can make the respiratory muscles complete the cycle of contraction and relaxation in an instant and exercise the rapid flexibility of the respiratory organs. This inhalation is also called "panting". It is better to express sadness and passion.

For some methods of breathing, refer to the papers of the Central Conservatory of Music. )

Why do you want to give this breathing such a name? It is mainly to let everyone master the requirements of singing breathing in a familiar state in life, but it should be noted that singing breathing is definitely a special kind of breathing, which cannot be completely equivalent to breathing in life.

How to use breath is the highest state. Personally, I think it is the highest state to serve the artistic conception of songs and send and receive freely. Therefore, different songs have different requirements for breath, mainly as follows:

(1) Suck fast and spit slowly: Some songs switch between phrases quickly, but phrases develop very long, so you need to suck fast and spit slowly, such as red *

This requires full excitement when breathing, positive diaphragm and even breathing. This is the most difficult situation.

The specific method is: inhale quickly, pause slightly, and exhale slowly. You can understand it this way: imagine that a long-lost friend suddenly appeared in front of you, and you gasped in surprise, almost crying and stopped in this state. After a few seconds, it seems that there is an external force pushing back the lower abdomen, and I feel that the lower abdomen slowly exhales in the confrontation with this external force. At this time, the diaphragm has played a strong supporting role.

(2) Breathe slowly and spit quickly: Some songs are written very short between phrases, but the development of phrases is very small. When you sing, you have time to prepare for breathing, but when you exhale, you should be quick and don't delay. Clear and direct.

(3) Suck slowly and vomit slowly: This situation mainly appears in some slow-paced love songs. Because the speed of the song is not fast, the whole melody is written in a long time, so you can inhale slowly and sing slowly. The difficulty here is that you can't get angry casually. Although it is not too difficult to ask for breath in this situation, once you get angry, you will find that the pitch is wrong, the rhythm is wrong or the voice is not in place. The author occasionally has this problem. So in this case, the continuity and stability of breath are needed.

(4) Breathe quickly and exhale quickly: This situation is mainly in some fast-paced songs. There are even requirements for strength.

Compared with the above three, this is relatively easy.

These are several situations of singing and breathing. You can practice according to your own situation, according to your familiar songs and fragments that meet the above situation, or create some vocal music that meets the four situations, and gradually experience the experience and feelings of breathing under different situations. There are some simple ways to train breath, such as some exercises to increase vital capacity, but a large vital capacity does not necessarily mean that breath is used well. Large lung capacity should be combined with the scientific use of breath to be more powerful.

(b) Pronunciation and vowels

As we all know, the last song is the lyrics, so enunciation is also an aspect of singing technology.

The general requirements of singing language are: accurate and dexterous initials, good vowel form, natural and timely rhyme, and remembering Yin and Yang. We must be clear about priorities and handle the tone and situation.

The prefix must be bitten correctly, but not to death. When the prefix is bitten, it should naturally transition to the stomach in time. After pronouncing words, stop the sound and rhyme in time, and pay attention to the connection of the three, so as to make the transition natural and smooth and become a whole. In addition, pinyin should be sung accurately, such as "L" and "N", "flat tongue" and "upturned tongue", "F" and "H", "front nasal rhyme" and "back nasal rhyme" should be distinguished and the tone should be accurate.

Every word has a vowel. In fact, many times we should practice some basic vowels and attribute the ending words to the vowels of this word when singing, such as the author's best "I".

"(Read 1) vowels are well used in the author's song" Admit Your Mistake ". Classifying words into vowels is a way to simplify complicated things, which is what we usually call "returning to rhyme".

Resonance and vibrato (also known as overtones)

Our vocal cords are the main organs of our human body, but if we only rely on the vocal cords to make sounds, our vocal cords will be very fragile. The human body is a big structure and a big cavity. If the vocal cords produce sound and resonate with other parts of the body at a similar frequency through a certain shock wave, the quality and brightness of the sound will be greatly enhanced, which is resonance.

There are many cavities in the human body, such as nasal cavity, head cavity and abdominal cavity. Generally speaking, it is better to use head cavity resonance, because head cavity resonance can produce ideal results. When we sing, we can think that our vocal organs such as vocal cords and mouths are connected with our heads, and the sound is thrown up!

Training resonance can be combined with vowel method. For example, ah vowel is suitable for practicing head cavity resonance, and m vowel is suitable for practicing nasal cavity resonance. When you feel tiny numbness in your body parts and vocal cords, it means that resonance is happening.

As for many vibrato singing methods we usually use, it is also the role of resonance. Because of resonance, other cavities will resonate, but they are not completely consistent with the frequency of the vocal cords, so they will produce a slightly different pitch from the vocal cords. When two kinds of sound effects are put together, there will be slight sound fluctuation, which is vibrato.

The way to train vibrato (overtone) is also to train resonance. With resonance and some breath, vibrato (overtone) will naturally occur.

(D) Psychological adjustment and relaxation state

Singing is a very advanced physiological and psychological activity, and having a correct physiological state is a prerequisite, but a correct psychological state is also essential. Sometimes poor psychological state will directly lead to the change of singing physiological state. Therefore, it is also important to have a good mental state when singing.

No matter when recording or singing, my friends often feel nervous and in a bad state, including myself. At this time, the adjustment of mental state is very important! First of all, we can use the method of association to associate more life scenes that are basically consistent with the content of songs in our own lives, so as to try our best to have a mental state in our lives. Secondly, you can sing some simple and short practice songs or hum songs to fully relax the vocal cords. You can also yawn, put down your throat and return to a very relaxed state. At the same time, I suggested that my nervousness can't solve any problems, and I can only get better if I relax.

Because singing is a technical activity, like other technical activities, it needs long-term repeated training to make all vocal movements return to a state of human natural science. Moreover, popular singing has always been controversial in the field of music pedagogy in China, and it is in an immature period. Therefore, we should think more, experience more, feel more, and experience some unique and proprietary skills and technologies.

About recording technology and singing consciousness, common sense and daily maintenance of musical sense cultivation will be mentioned in the next article. I also hope that everyone can make more suggestions, make more corrections and discuss more, so that all friends can improve and make progress! Thank you!

Record common problems with cool

On rising and falling tones

Can I lower my tone with Cool Edit Pro, or what plug-ins should I download?

Answer: Under the monorail, the lower pitch is selected in the effect-transmission-preset. In the transformation, you can choose whether to raise a few keys or lower a few keys, with high accuracy and tone modulation (maintaining speed).

As shown in the figure:

Solution of recording asynchronization.

Q: Dry voice is always slower than accompaniment. What should I do?

A:

First of all, it is possible that you moved the audio track when you right-clicked it. You can check whether there is the word "track movement" in the "Edit" menu.

Second, your system resources are not enough, which leads to the situation that the accompaniment and the audio track cannot be aligned. The solution can try to clear the files in the temp folder and "increase virtual memory"

Third, if it is 128 megabytes of memory, add a memory stick.

Fourth, win2000 is not compatible with Coolpad. Try changing to 98 or xp.

Five, upgrade the sound card driver

6. In cool open's multi-track mode, select Options-Settings-Multi-track-Correction during recording synchronization.

Seven, opening too many windows will also cause asynchronization, such as opening a web page to read the lyrics.

On the problem of spraying wheat

Q: The songs I sing always have the sound of "poop-poop" ~ Please advise me if I use the cool E.

A: The best solution to wheat spraying is to prevent it from the early stage.

1, turn down the volume of the wheat, put the wheat on one side of your face, and try not to let the airflow in your mouth go straight to the wheat head.

2. Cover Mike's head with * * * to reduce the buffer airflow.

3. Although the sound of wheat spraying can be processed later, the sound will become pitted. Using EQ to attenuate the sound below 100hz is a simple solution.

On the elimination of hissing sound

Q: Why do I always feel that there is a continuous hiss in the high-pitched part after recording? I connect Mike with headphones. I don't know.
