MIDI音乐制作中的弦乐技巧

2017年第9期(总第321期)北 方 音 乐Northern MusicNO.9,2017(CumulativelyNO.321)MIDI音乐制作中的弦乐技巧苏 鹤(哈尔滨师范大学,黑龙江 哈尔滨 150000)【摘要】科技日新月异的进步,人们生活水平的不断提高,各行各业都在科学技术的引导下走向了新的轨道,而我们的音乐制作行业也得以普及,一个人,一台电脑完全可以写出整个乐坛最华丽的乐章,本文不去赘述那些大众的宿主软件及大家普遍知道的常识性问题,只针对MIDI音乐制作中弦乐的选择、写法及技巧做探究,旨在为一些还在困惑为什么写不出“真”的效果的人们做一个开端。
【关键词】弦乐;音源;编曲【中图分类号】J619 【文献标识码】A所谓“工欲善其事,必先利其器”,一首好的编曲作品的成功与否很大程度上取决于音源的好坏,那么哪些音源“好”,又哪些音源“坏”呢?其实,音源本身没有好与坏之说,主要看适不适合,最简单的例子:当你编一首忧伤哀怨的曲子时,那么我们选择弦乐之时,就不能选择过于明亮的弦乐音色,同时在写的时候更要避免过于尖锐,辉煌的写法.....一、弦乐音色的选择由于市面上的弦乐五花八门,有些弦乐独立打包成为音源,而有一些则以交响综合的形式出现,笔者挑选了几款比较具有经典意义的弦乐给大家推荐。
(一)罗兰管弦Edirol HQ Orchestral相信好多人对罗兰管弦音源不会陌生,尤其是编曲入门阶段的选手,当你面对市面上动不动就几个G或者上百G的音源只能望而却步时,当你面对音色真的不能再真而又力不从心时,它出现在你的面前。
罗兰管弦除了音色极佳之外,又是一个只有89.5M超小体积的迷你型管弦乐音源。
里面的弦乐虽没有大型实体采样音源那么真,但也不失弦乐风度,更为可取的是操作简单,极易上手,是所有编曲新人的不二选择。
(二)好莱坞弦乐HOLLYWOOD STRINGS2010年EASTWEST公司重磅出的好莱坞弦乐是一个划时代的象征,也是编曲界的一次重要变革。

在软音源发展速度极快的今天,音乐制作者们被各式各样的软音源迷得目不暇接之时,有一员老将却依然屹立不倒,它就是具有罗兰管弦乐之称的Edirol HQ Orchestral。
提到这个名字,相信很多音乐制作老将们都对其肃然起敬,这可是元老级的音乐制作一大法宝,虽然它已经有些年头了,但它的音色质量却与当今最新的大个头软音源相比毫不逊色,更何况是这种飘逸着古典气息的管弦乐音色呢?正所谓姜还是老的辣。
Edirol HQ Orchestral除开音色极佳之外,在当今最大的优势就是当你的电脑对巨大的采样软音源不堪重负时,你不会感到束手无策。
你仍然还有选择的余地,那就是非它莫属了。
这也是唯一的,最好的选择。
虽然Edirol HQ Orchestral体积比较小,对电脑的要求非常低,不过在功能上却一点也不业余,这就是它的界面:图01 Edirol HQ Orchestral一.Edirol HQ Orchestral的音色编制在这个界面中,各个音色一目了然,俨然就是一支专业的管弦乐团。
大家可以看到左边,列出了大家所熟悉的乐器名字,1-4号蓝色的是木管乐器组,5-8号黄色的是铜管乐器组,9-10号灰色的是打击乐器组,11-16号红色的是弦乐器组。
它现在就在你手中,全听你的指挥。
图02 Edirol HQ Orchestral的音色分组当然,你还可以对它的音色组合进行任意的切换和改变,达到你想要的编配。
Edirol HQ Orchestral一共有16个通道,那就以为着你可以在一个Edirol HQ Orchestral中使用16个音色,这不仅仅能够节省资源,更让能使用者觉得方便,我可不敢想象要是在工程里面同时打开16个音色操作界面那有多么恐怖。

音乐制作的常用武器之管弦乐、合成器与综合音源

大觉者电脑音乐教程第二十一课——音乐制作的常用武器之管弦乐、合成器与综合音源2007-06-29 13:24:08在上一讲中,我们主要介绍了一下乐队四大件的常用音源。
下面我们接着来介绍其他一些音源插件。
一.管弦乐管弦乐是很常用的音色,也是最传统的音色。
几乎各种风格的音乐都离不开它。
只要做音乐,这些音色都是要经常打交道的。
在这里我们不去谈管弦乐“如何去做”的话题。
做为音乐人,基本的乐器法是必须要掌握的。
管弦乐法的有关书籍非常多,而这些不是我们在这里要讨论的话题。
我只能向初学的朋友介绍常用的音色插件,而不会去讲“小提琴有几根弦、音域是怎样的”等话题。
那是做为音乐人必须要掌握的基础知识。
目前品质最好的管弦乐音色,非East West 出品的Symphonic Orchestra 系列莫数。
图:Symphonic Orchestra系列管弦乐音色Symphonic Orchestra系列的制作人Keith O.Johnson博士,是录音界的传奇人物,获得过两次GRAMMY奖和8次GRAMMY提名,制作过超过90部古典音乐作品。
Symphonic Orchestra的全部采样都是在造价1.25亿美元的大音乐厅内、使用声音最纯正最优美的管弦乐乐器和最高档的录音设备录制完成,据说一共花费了两年时间,才制作出这一款容量硕大无比、品质卓越超群的管弦乐音色库。
Symphonic Orchestra是世界上第一款采用24bit采样位深,具有近场、舞台、大厅3种不同效果。
3种立体声音色分轨可以任意地编排。
这套管弦乐根据售价不同和音色容量分为白金版、金版和银版三种,并附加有多个扩展音色包。
当然,它的体积也是令人咋舌的,如果没有硕大的硬盘和内存,最好还是不要用它。
一般来说,金版的Symphonic Orchestra已经绝对足够满足个人音乐工作室的需要了。
图:金版Symphonic Orchestra它的界面和上节课说过的HardcoreBass是不是一摸一样?呵呵。
常用软音源介绍

VCP120
VCP120是Ueberschall公司出品的经典和弦进行插件中的一张,其他的还有VLP120、PLP120、BPM120。VCP120是一个节奏吉他LOOP带和弦进行的插件,音色和节奏都很棒,只是做修改的余地较小,做流行音乐不太实用,如果做HIP HOP、R&B或是RAP之类的到还是很合适。
Virtual Guitarist
VG Electric Edition
虚拟吉他手共分两个版本,一个是虚拟吉他手Virtual Guitarist,包含了木吉他和电吉他两种音色节奏。另一个是虚拟电吉他手VG Electric Edition,全都是电吉他的音色和节奏。虚拟吉他手是由Steinberg公司推出的巨好的吉他音源插件,音色超棒,各种节奏非常丰富,你只需写上你需要的和弦,它就可以自动给你弹奏出专业的吉他伴奏。各种琴的风格和音色非常全面,绝对是你制作节奏吉他的得力助手!
经典的硬件音源Roland XV-5050
现在好了,软件音源多的数都数不清,而且还有网络这个大家庭让我们共享,可真说的上是太有福了。
软音源的数量之多,各种音色之全、更新换代之快是硬音源远远比不了的。不过硬音源现在依然有很多人使用,它自然也有它的优势,那就是音色出众,有一些音色是软音源怎么也比不过的。不过相对它的价格我看还是算了吧,软音源一样能让我们制作出一流的专业的作品。
2、另一款综合音源Edirol Hyper Canvas
Edirol Hyper Canvas
Edirol Hyper Canvas体积小,占用资源少,GS标准,音色很全面,对付一般的音乐制作绰绰有余。
3、Ultimate Sound Bank出品的Plugsound系列音源也是一套非常好的音源插件。

罗兰管弦乐音源Edirol HQ Orchestral详细教程
除此宏观操作之外,Orchestral还能对每一个音色进行细微的编辑,让它所发出的声音更加人性化,更加像真实的演奏。
点击[EDIT]会切换到编辑界面来对一个音色进
行细微编辑,如图05:
图05 Edirol HQ Orchestral中每个音色的细微编辑
在这个界面中,你可以控制演奏时的弓法和情绪,让它柔和一点,或是紧张一点。
就连颤音也不需要你来操心,在这里都可以进行设置。
在这个编辑器的包络发生器ENVELOPE当中,你可以把它的ATTACK参数调大,让一个很普通的弦乐音色变成慢慢弱起渐强的感觉,这对于弦乐音色的表现非常重要。
通过另外两个旋钮DECAY和RELEASE还能够调节这个音色在回落和释放消失时所需要的时间长短。
图06 调节包络发生器的ATTACK值来制造弱起渐强的感觉
在这个编辑器的颤音发生器VIBRATO当中,你可以调节它的DEPTH参数,让一个很普通的弦乐音色产生颤音,并决定颤音的猛烈程度,再配合RATE参数来决定颤音揉弦的快慢,这对于弦乐音色的表现也同样重要。
另外还可以调节那个DELAY旋钮来决定颤音需要经过多少时间后才可以起作用。
图07 调节颤音发生器来制造揉弦颤音的感觉
很多朋友会遇到这样的问题:在MIDI和音源里面弯音轮的弯音范围默认的是上下各一个大二度,但如果想制作超过大二度的弯音或滑音便很迷惘了,而这个问题在Edirol HQ Orchestral中就非常容易解决,直接在编辑器里的BEND RANGE中输入好弯音范围数就行了,单位为半音。
图08 设置这个音色的弯音范围
完成一首出色的管弦乐作品,光有音乐是不够的,还得具备良好的音响效果。
它的混响效果器REVERB和合唱效果器CHORUS可以模拟音乐厅的声学环境,以及多人同时演奏的感觉。

以上所讲解的功能是在实际使用中使用得比较多的,除此之外你还可以通过FLITER来修改音色的厚度,EQ来调节音色的均衡,TUNING来调整这个乐器的定音等,让它更加像一件真实的乐器。

最大的优点:直接打开它时,它的音色全是编制好的,可以立刻开始作曲,不必花时间去挑选音色。
作为一名音乐人,或作曲家来说,这一点实在是太重要了,因为谁也不愿意浪费做音乐的时间去折腾软件。
由此,Orchestral的优点还是显而易见的,它体积小,功能强大,相信你一定也想来做一回Orchestral的指挥吧。
