As a mysterious industry, recording has always been an industry that free musicians yearn for. Of course, with the popularization and promotion of high-tech products, some things that ordinary people thought were impossible to do in the past have made possible. Especially the popularity of computers can allow everyone to enjoy the fun of digital recording. Of course, the recording effect is naturally not comparable to works recorded in professional recording studios.

A professional recording studio is a special recording place built by people to create acoustic conditions for specific recording environments. The acoustic characteristics of the recording studio play a very important role in the quality of recording production and its products.

This is not the first time Andy has entered the recording studio, so naturally he will not be so inexplicably excited. What's more, he is really not a musician, and he is even more lacking in the dreams pursued by musicians.

However, since he has signed an album contract with Universal Records, Universal Records is ready to catch up with Hawaii and Andy doesn't want to be in trouble with the US dollar. Besides, this album also includes the singles released before, as well as songs that he has sang and have not released ep. To be honest, these songs have long been popular all over the United States and even the world. If there weren't a few new songs on the album, it would really feel like making money from the album.

In the afternoon, Andy and Ivana flew to Honolulu and sent Ivana back to the Smith family vacation manor. After greeting the happy old housekeeper George, Andy and Andy led the bodyguards to form a huge convoy based on the address they obtained and rushed to the recording studio where everyone in the Universal Records Company was located.

Lucian Granger, president of Universal Records Group and EO, who received the news, immediately summoned people to welcome Andy Smith, a super big singer under their company.

The resentment that had been left for two days before was long gone was long behind. After all, everyone knows that it is impossible to treat Andy Smith with the attitude and demands of treating singers. No matter what, the new richest man in the world finally took time out of his busy schedule. Next, he will spend more time recording songs. It is said that Bill Gates earns $250 per second, $20 million a day, and $7.8 billion a year...

Then Andy Smith, the world's richest man who is worth $50 billion, earns an average of $6,659 per minute. Just think about it, everyone who came to record an album for Andy Smith this time felt Alexander.

They are not working with one person, but staying with a walking money printing machine!

"Bang bang"

A group of ten black SUVs guarded the middle of a black Rolls-Royce parked in the open space of the front yard of the house where the recording studio was located. Immediately, more than a dozen bodyguards with cold faces and large figures walked down from the SUVs, and their cold eyes swept over the people standing not far away with Universal Records headed by Lucian, and then quickly dispersed, scattered around, each facing one direction to watch out.

A white shoe stretched out from the Rolls-Royce, whose door was opened, and Andy Smith, wearing a white T-shirt and colorful beach shorts, bent down and walked out of the car. He first looked around. Andy took off his sunglasses, raised his lips, and showed a faint smile on his face. He walked over to the eo of Universal Records that was brought to him.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Granger."

"Good afternoon, Mr. Smith, I'm so happy to see you."

Feeling the other party's enthusiasm, Andy nodded with a smile. After shaking hands with the other party, under the introduction of Lucian, he met the members of the team who came to make the album for him one by one, especially Max Martin and Cook Harrell.

"Please both of you." Andy said to the two with a smile. He knew his own affairs. After all, he had not systematically learned vocal music. He singed completely with talent. He didn't believe in how beautiful his singing was. Therefore, if he wanted to make the album perfect, he really couldn't do without the two big players on the other side to help him adjust it.

"This is our honor!" Max Martin and Cook Harrel both had a humble smile on their faces, and they could not see the depression that had been hung for two days. So, don't say that Westerners are not hypocritical, you must know that there are really few people in this world who can be their own willful and live their true self.

Perhaps they had complained in private either unhappy, but when they really met Andy, the newly richest man in the world and a young big shot, those who had been struggling in the entertainment industry for decades would be frightened and trepidated, becoming that they didn't recognize their smiling faces.

"Mr. Smith, please come here." Lucian saw that Andy Smith did not have the cold attitude of being so worried about as he had been, but was very friendly and easy to get along with. This made him feel relieved. He smiled and reached out to invite him, and looked at Andy nodded at him, shaking his head and smiling bitterly in his heart. He was also thinking too much. Which real big man is not very kind in private? Only those arrogant and ignorant people will feel that they are different and superior.

"This recording studio is the best in Hawaii. Although it is in the suburbs of Honolulu, it can also bring musicians a recording experience away from the crowd..."

While walking, Andy listened to Lucian introducing the history of this recording studio and which songs and albums have been produced. The decoration of the recording studio is mainly wood and colorful, giving people the feeling of a country cottage, which is more interesting than other professional recording studios. The recording studio is surrounded by lush trees and gardens, allowing people to enjoy the inspiring natural scenery here. The quiet environment and numerous recording equipment are there, and it really seems to be based in a music paradise.

"This provides a variety of digital and analog recording equipment for musicians, including many microphones...previous and monitors..."

Listening to Lucian Barabala talking about the names of some professional equipment, Andy smiled and nodded in a half-understanding, just like he really knew it. No matter what, although he was not familiar with it and could not use it, he couldn't show his timidity.

“…The wooden decoration of the audio studio creates a warm and complete tone, which is the unique sound here.”

After visiting the studio, Andy saw many guitar collections in this recording studio - well, anyway, many famous brands of guitars are full of two walls. Of course, naturally, it is not true that Hawaiian's special instrument ukulele is not true, and there are a series of control pedals for matching. However, there are two very representative classic pianos - Yamaha 2 and fender rhodes 73.

Seeing these two pianos, Andy couldn't help but itchy and said to Lucian with a smile: "Can I play it?"

"Of course, hehe, I believe this is their honor." Lucian smiled.

"Haha..." Andy smiled at Lucian's ponytail and shook his head. Under the gaze of a large group of top musicians, he walked to Yamaha 2, sat down, moved his fingers, closed his eyes, and began to bounce.

A familiar and classic piano piece "To Alice" sounded in the recording studio.

"Smacking"

A burst of warm applause sounded, and Andy waved his hand modestly and chuckled: "Thank you for your applause. I haven't played for a long time, and I'm a little unfamiliar."

Everyone present chuckled and applauded, and showed kind smiles at Andy's words and performances. To be honest, at least half of the people present could easily crush Andy's playing skills. However, in the face of a big shot like Andy Smith, who can say anything else, just applaud and applaud...

“…Next, Mr. Smith, you need to choose a song first and sing its pitch and rhythm.

After that, you can enter the radio room, bring your headphones, and aim at the microphone. It should be noted that when singing, please do not shake left and right or backwards. During this process, the recording engineer will adjust the level of your recording, the loudness of the microphone and accompaniment, the choice of the microphone, etc., and it is a good opportunity for you to open your voice and try singing.

The recording engineer will record songs for you from beginning to end based on the preset eq parameter values ​​in the previous period, and listen to the recorded dry sounds. After the audition, you will supplement the recordings one by one for individual problems. For you who have certain singing skills, you will also guide you to sing the inner voice expressions in the music... "

After the visit, the main person in charge of the album recording accompanied Andy on the sofa, and Max Martin began to explain to Andy the next recording process and precautions.

"So, Mr. Smith, which song do you want to sing first?"

"..." Andy pondered for a while and asked with a smile: "Have all the accompaniments of these songs been recorded?"

"Yes, it's been recorded before."

"Then start with "hall of fame"!" Andy smiled.
Chapter completed!
