Chapter 478: Chapter 478 - 454: Give You a Vaccination_1

“You have already found your third voice. Our next training plan is to learn sound mixing. If you can use all three vocal ranges effectively, you’ll experience wonderful transformations…”

The shadow continued speaking in a calm tone.

Lin Yuan’s eyes lit up.

The virtual shadow was aligning with Lin Yuan’s idea. In fact, ever since he found the female voice, Lin Yuan vaguely had the idea of practice sound mixing. He had two completely different ranges, it would be a waste not to practice mixing. Moreover, he now had a third voice!

What is sound mixing?

Technically, mixing is manipulating volume in various ways to ensure a balance between different voices and different parts. It also means merging various recordings into one unified piece while creating various effects.

This requires technological assistance.

Just like cooking in daily life, once all ingredients are prepared, mixing is akin to stir-frying these ingredients into a tasty dish – controlling the heat and seasoning, and sometimes adding a twist.

But…

Some singers do not need machines to mix sounds. This is one of the must-learn courses in vocal music, as singing involves resonance in four cavities: mouth, nose, chest and head.

Lin Yuan understood this.

Of course, understanding is one thing, and doing well is another. Lin Yuan was fairly good at it, even handling the hardest head resonance with flair, but this was just common mixing.

Lin Yuan was different.

He now had three voice types. Although it was not possible to use all three at once, Lin Yuan vaguely managed to harmonize them into a chorus-like sound. This balance was very difficult to grasp, but at the end of ‘Bracing the Chill’, his final line started to have this taste. Wu Long even specifically praised this point, so this path was indeed feasible.

“Class is over.”

The shadow stated, “Mixing the three vocal ranges is not something you can master overnight. You should first get a grip on the husky voice. Without it, the effect of sound mixing won’t be perfect.”

“Hmm.”

A thought occurred to Lin Yuan.

He returned to reality, still on his bed. He found a comfortable position to sing and tried to find the varietal husky voice he discovered in the System Space. However, he found that feeling gone again.

It was clear.

His brain understood.

But his voice was not there yet.

The Virtual Space was for the brain to research, his own image was also virtual, so practice in reality was most crucial. Since his brain knew what to do, producing that voice should not be too difficult.

Taking a deep breath.

Lin Yuan continued to practice.

Half an hour later, he had basically understood a husky voice, after all it was his voice during the period when his vocal cords were not well. As the System said, it relied on muscle memory, so Lin Yuan did not feel it unfamiliar.

“This is better.”

Lin Yuan smiled.

If he chose the right song, he might rank well in the next match: “If the male and female voices are my first wildcard, then the husky voice is my second. There are several days left until the competition, it’s enough time for me to control it.”

…

The outside world.

With the end of the first recording of ‘The Masked Singer’, many discussions emerged online. Some netizens were eager to learn which day the recording would be broadcast:

“‘The Masked Singer’ should have finished recording for the first episode today.”

“Damn it! Definitely finished, but we have to wait till next Sunday to watch it!”

“I can’t wait anymore!”

“The program team said there will be a King of Singing and Queen of Singing for the first episode. Do you think it’s possible for either to be eliminated?”

“Stop daydreaming.”

“In an absolutely fair program, as long as the King and Queen perform as usual, they’ll likely be in the top four. This is just a conservative estimate, I think they might take the first two places in the first episode.”

“I see, we can guess the King and Queen by looking at who get the first and second places.”

“I’ve waited till the flowers have wilted …”

The expectations for this program were sky-high!

Moreover, several video websites have already started pre-orders for ‘The Masked Singer’.

This is to remind the viewers to watch as soon as it is aired.

The total number of pre-orders has already broken the record for a music variety show!

Besides that.

Some viewers who watched the live recording also appeared on the internet.

Due to basic morality and the confidentiality requirement of the programme, they could not reveal too much information online and could only express their excitement in a fragmented manner—

“After watching the first episode, it did not disappoint!”

“It’s more spectacular than I could have ever imagined, truly the top tier music show on Blue Star!”

“The results of the first episode’s unmasking are absolutely explosive!”

“Some of the masked singers are so strong it’s unbelievable!”

“After watching this show, I finally understood what singing skills are. I used to hear people talking about singing, but it always seemed mysterious to me.”

“The live feeling is really amazing, an aural treat!”

“The equipment of this show’s crew is amazing. I wish I could take home the speaker on my right wall and make a fortune with it!”

“…”

And it’s not just the regular audience.

The celebrity judges have also started hyping up the show –

“The most shocking music show in the history of Blue Star has been born. The shock I’m talking about is contributing in every way!”

“Surprise! Even the singers who were eliminated in the first episode have absolutely top-notch skills!”

“Just by watching the process and the final unmasking, without knowing the results of the other singers, people who have seen the show probably have even higher expectations for the broadcast than those who haven’t!”

“Ah! ah! ah! The line-up of judges is truly a superstar ensemble!”

“This is the most explosive music show in history, the entire music industry should be trembling, Xian Yu has ‘arrived’!”

“…”

The hype is obviously effective.

With online users and celebrity judges expressing their thoughts, netizens’ desire to watch “The Masked Singer” has skyrocketed!

The show’s booking volume has exploded again!

People are paying too much attention to these minor spoilers that do not involve key information –

What does ‘judges as a superstar ensemble’ mean?

What does Xian Yu ‘arriving’ mean?

Could it be that the mysterious Xian Yu will appear!?

But what do you mean by putting it in quotes!?

Why should the entire music industry be “shivering”?

Who is the unmasked person in the first episode that’s got everyone so riled up?

Damn it!

Really want to watch!

Can’t sleep now!

At this time in Qi Continent, a celebrity from the judge panel suddenly made a phone call to a friend.

“Yuan Xi.”

“What’s up?”

The one who answered the call was one of the leading singers in Qi Continent, Yuan Xi.

“You’re not in ‘The Masked Singer’, right?”

“No.”

“Ok, then I am sure that person is not you. Just want to remind you, don’t forget to watch ‘The Masked Singer’.”

“What do you mean?”

“You’ll know when you watch it. Just prepare yourself mentally. Don’t be angry. Being angry is useless. As a friend, I just want to give you a heads up…”

Yuan Xi: “…”

Are you trying to scare me?

The recent ‘The Masked Singer’, seems to be sweeping over the entire music industry. It’s as if the whole world is discussing this show.

The problem is…

What does it have to do with me, Yuan Xi?

Is there a masked singer pretending to be me?

In no time, Yuan Xi’s curiosity found its answer.

Because seven days later…

The Masked Singer aired!!!

All those who couldn’t sleep because of this show seemed to have found an outlet, and eagerly began watching this show…
