This next example introduces another application for Parameter Modulation. In this case, we will use the audio signal from one track (a vocal track) to shape the sound of an instrument submix (that is, a folder track containing several instruments). This will be done in such a way as to cause the instruments to appear to pull back slightly during the vocal passages.
下一个示例介绍了参数调制的另一个应用。在这种情况下,我们将使用一个轨道(人声轨道)中的音频信号,来塑造乐器次级混音(即包含多个乐器的文件夹轨道)的声音。这将以这样一种方式进行,使乐器在人声段落中,感觉上略微靠后。
Example
示例
1. Open the file All Through The Night MOD1 and save it as All Through The Night MOD2.
1.打开文件All Through The Night MOD1,并将其另存为All Through The Night MOD2。
2. Remove or set to bypass the delay plug-in in the Bouzouki track's FX chain.
2.移除或设置旁通Bouzouki轨道FX链中的延迟插件。
3. Insert a new track after the vocal track. Name this track Instruments and make it into a folder. Insert the three instrument tracks into this folder, as shown on the right.
3.在人声轨道下面插入新的轨道。将此轨道命名为Instruments,并将其设为文件夹。将三条乐器轨道插入到此文件夹中,如右侧所示。
4. Add an instance of ReaComp to the Bouzouki track. This is needed only because the volume of this instrument increases quite significantly as the song progresses. We wish to pull this back a little.
4.在Bouzouki轨道上,添加ReaComp实例。之所以需要这样做,只是因为随着歌曲的进行,这个乐器的音量会有相当大的提高。我们想把他往后拉一点。
5. Set a threshold of around -15dB and a ratio of around 4:1.
5.将阈值设置为-15dB左右,压缩比设置为4:1左右。
6. Select the Instruments folder and display its routing window. Set the number of track channels to 4 and add a receive from channels 1/2 of the Vox track to channels 3/4 of the Instruments folder.
6.选择Instruments文件夹,并显示其路由窗口。设置轨道通道数为4,将来自Vox轨道的通道1/2的接收,添加到Instruments文件夹的通道3/4。
7. Open the FX Window for the Instruments folder and add an instance of JS: Exciter (Treble enhancer). This will be used to brighten up the instrument a little.
7.打开Instruments文件夹的FX窗口,并添加JS的SStillwell/exciter(激励器)的实例。这将用来把乐器调亮一点。
8. Settings similar to those shown here will definitely brighten the instruments, perhaps more than you would like. For the sake of this exercise, however, these levels should be fine.
8.与此处显示的设置类似的设置肯定会使乐器变亮,可能比您想要的要亮。但是,对于本练习而言,这些级别应该没有问题。
9. We are now going to use parameter modulation to ensure that audio signal from the vocal track drives down the mix level of the exciter. This will have the effect of helping the vocal to just float over the instruments a little.
9.我们现在将使用参数调制,来确保来自人声轨道的音频信号,降低激励器的混音电平。这将起到帮助人声稍微漂浮在乐器上的效果。
10. Click on the Mix % (Wet/Dry rotary) control, then on the Param button and choose Parameter modulation/MIDI link from the menu.
10.单击“Mix %”(湿声/干声旋钮)控件,然后单击“参数”按钮,然后从菜单中选择“参数调制/MIDI链接”。
11. When the PM window is opened, enable parameter modulation and choose Audio control signal (sidechain). Move the baseline value fader about a third of the way to the right.
11.PM窗口打开时,“勾选启用参数调制”,并选择“音频控制信号(侧链)”。将“基线值”推子向右移动约三分之一。
12. Select Track audio channels 3/4 and make the direction Negative.
12.“轨道音频通道”选择3/4,并将“方向”设为“负”。
13. Adjust the other parameters so that as the vocal floats above the instruments the Mix % of the Exciter is smoothly and gently faded down.
13.调整其他参数,以便当人声漂浮在乐器上方时,激励器的“Mix %”平稳而温和地减弱。
14. One possible solution to this exercise is shown below. But don't just dive straight in and copy these settings. Try to get there by yourself!
14.本练习的一种可能解决方案如下所示。但不要一头扎进去复制这些设置。试着自己去那里!
15. Save the file when you are finished.
15.完成后保存文件。 作者: 琴韵晓波 时间: 2021-7-4 13:53 点此转到本章目录点此转到总目录——【本文译者：王晓波，出处：视障者音乐制作交流基地】点此转到REAPER+SWS+OSARA中文语言包下载页面
