Product Introduction 产品介绍
Tear of Land -- Chinese Xun Virtual Instruments
Xun is a wind instrument with deep vacant sound.
lt has a history of about seven thousand years.
The earliest unearthed items can be widely found in many archaeological sites,
such as the Hemudu site,the Zhaobaogou relics, and the Banpo site of Yangshao relics.
Xun usually has an egg- or pear-shaped body made of pottery, with one blowing hole on top and multiple finger holes along one side.
Xun is a component of aulic and ritual bands in Ancient time.
However, its use has been discontinued due to the turmoil in the late-19th and early-20th centuries.
In the 1980s, Xun playing was revived by archaeologists and artists,
and nowadays,it is commonly used in historical topics with murky or falling scenarios.
苍穹 -- 中国埙虚拟乐器
埙是一种拥有深沉悠远音色的吹管乐器。
它拥有大约七千年的历史。
最早出土的埙在许多考古遗址中被发现，
例如河姆渡遗址、赵宝沟遗址以及半坡遗址等仰韶文化遗址。
埙通常是一个椭圆形或梨形的陶制乐器，顶部有一个吹孔，一侧有多个指孔。
在古代，埙是宫廷祭祀乐队的一个组成部分。
然而，由于19世纪末20世纪初的动荡，它的使用已经中断。
在20世纪80年代，考古学家和艺术家将埙重新发扬光大，
现在，它常常被用于历史题材的阴暗或者跌宕起伏的场景。

Adjustable Sound Field
When samples were recorded, 5 different microphones were used with different positions to capture the spatial and reverb characteristics of Xun.
All these channels were mixed down to four channels: Yin, Yang and far stereo.
The volumes of these four channels were adjustable in software, making it possible to obtain most various tone.
声场
在录制样本时，使用了 5 支不同摆位的麦克风来捕捉埙的空间和混响特性。
所有这些在叠轨时将它们混合成了阴、阳、远场立体声共四声道。
这四个声道的音量可通过软件进行调节，从而获得各种不同的音色。
Performances
By controlling airflow and finger, Xun has a very rich set of performances
such as mordent, finger pole popping, trill, flutter, vibrato, staccato and gliss.
All these performances can be triggered in Tear of Land software, making it most adjustable Xun virtual instrument.
技法
通过对气流和手指的控制，埙具有非常丰富的表现形式，
如：波音、指颤音、颤音、飘音、揉弦、顿音和滑音。
所有这些演奏都可以在苍穹中触发，因此埙虚拟乐器的可调节性最强。
Realistic Expressions
Tear of Land has real-recorded expressions that are freely controllable.
With the control of MIDI CC, it can express tone changes like a real Xun performance.
真实的演奏表情
苍穹具有可自由控制的真实录制的演奏表情。
通过 MIDI CC 控制，它可以跟埙吹奏一样表现音色变化。
Gliss
With two different speeds of real-recorded gliss samples and sample synthesis technique,
Tear of Land can perform gliss at freely adjustable speed.
滑音
通过两种不同速度的真实录制滑音采样和采样合成技术，
苍穹可以自由调节滑音速度。
Self-developed Vibrato Engine
Real-sample-based LFO engine making Tear of Land performs vibrato that is both realistic and adjustable.
独创的颤音引擎
基于真实采样的 LFO 引擎让苍穹可以实现真实且可调的颤音。
Sampling Engine
Self-developed sampling engine with better sound quality,
more powerful disk buffer streaming/sampling compression technology, and brand-new sound fusion technology.
采样引擎
自主开发的采样引擎，有更好的音质，
更强大的磁盘缓冲流/采样压缩技术和全新的音色融合技术。
Legato
We recorded the sound between legato notes in three speeds, and apply them according to playing speed in software.
In addition, we recorded “regular legato","popping legato" and "cry legato" that are specific in Chinese Xun.
连奏
我们用三种速度记录了音与音之间连接的声音，并在苍穹中根据演奏速度加以应用。
此外，我们还记录了中国埙特有的 "普通连奏"、"打音连奏 "和 "哭腔"的连奏。
Abundant sound effects
We summarized and screened 8 techniques of Xun,
including traditional performance techniques, film and television soundtracks, and special techniques commonly used in Chinese ancient style songs,
just to preserve the natural talent of Xun to the greatest extent.
丰富的音效
我们总结了埙的所有技法并进行了筛选，
包含了传统的演奏技法与影视剧配乐、中国风歌曲中常用的特殊技法等8种不同的同音重复技法，
只为最大程度上保留埙自然赋予的纯粹音效。
Self-developed spectrum fusion legato technology
Real-recorded legato samples can enhance the realism of legato instruments,
but the conjugate part by naive cross-fade algorithm of two samples would induce phase-cancellation problems.
In order to better cohesive legato performance, we developed the "spectrum fusion legato" technology.
When necessarv, frequency domain fusion is used instead of time domain cross-fade to create transition part between samples,
which improves the smoothness of the connection.
自主研发的频谱融合连奏技术
真实录制的连奏技法可以更好的加强连奏乐器的真实感，
但通过简单的的交叉淡化的方式将两个采样连接在一起会产生相位抵消问题。
为了更好地链接连奏采样，三体团队自主研发了 "频谱融合连奏 "技术。
必要时，使用频域融合来代替时域交叉淡化来进行采样之间的过渡，
从而提高连接的平滑度。
Convolution reverb
At the beginning of Chinese Traditional series development,
we started to record the convolution reverb samples from spectacular places, famous natural and historical heritages in China.
Thus you can simulate Tear of Land being played at the Great Wall or Terracotta Army site.
卷积混响
在中国传统系列开发之初，
我们就开始录制来自中国壮观景点、著名自然和历史遗产的卷积混响采样。
因此，你可以模拟在长城或兵马俑使用苍穹。
