What fm1-luogu does
- LUOGU plays 64 京剧 percussion patterns, each with its 起, a 中 that repeats until you cut it, and its 收.
- The 字谱 lights up syllable by syllable as it sounds, with 板 marked × and 眼 marked ○.
- Eighteen 板式 let you sing with a band: the 锣鼓 leads in, the 京胡 plays the 大过门, the 板 keeps time.
- Five complete arias run from the opening 过门 to the end with the 京胡 and lit lyrics.
- Turn K2 to pick your instrument and the band leaves it out for you to play on the keys.
- REC scores every stroke as 准, 早 or 晚, counting missed and extra strokes against you.
- The keys are laid out as each player's hands go, or play 京胡, 京二胡 or 月琴 in the 调门.
- SAVE keeps the page, pattern, tempo, 调门, mix, instrument, keys, octave, loop, 板眼 and 跟练, and a MIDI keyboard or pad works over USB.
Its modes
- 锣鼓
- Pick one of the 64 luogu jing patterns with ALGO and PRESET and play it, with its 字谱 lighting up as it sounds.
- 跟打
- Press REC and play your chosen instrument's strokes along with the band, each one judged and scored at the end.
- 跟练
- Press FX so the music waits at each syllable until you strike its key, and jumps ahead when you strike early.
- 唱腔
- Choose one of the 18 板式 and sing while the 锣鼓 leads in, the 京胡 plays the 大过门 and the 板 keeps time.
- 唱段
- Turn PRESET to the aria group and sing a whole aria while the 京胡 carries you and the lyrics light up.
- 混音
- Press GLO to balance the 武场, the 文场, reverb and the keys, and switch the 京二胡 or 月琴 off.
- 键位图
- Press SEL to see each key's syllable, coloured by player and lit as you press it.
