PLAYING A CD+G (COMPACT DISC + GRAPHICS) DISC KARAOKE

You can listen to a CD+G karaoke. CD+G discs combine the recorded music with an additional video track

that displays the song lyrics on a television screen. As the song plays, the words to be sung are highlighted in

a different color on most CD+Gs.

OPERATION (CONTINUED)

NOTE: The Program and Repeat features on a CD+G CD operate the same as with standard CD.

INFORMATION ABOUT CD+G KARAOKE DISCS:

CD+G Karaoke discs are designed specifically for playback in special CD players that include a CD+G decoder, such as

this unit. These discs contain the lyrics to each song and the lyrics will appear on your TV screen, line by line, as the disc

is playing. Usually the words on the screen will change color in time with the music to help you sing along at the proper

tempo, even if you do not know the song.

Most CD+G Karaoke discs have all of the songs recorded twice, first with music only, and then with music and vocal

together. For example, if you purchase a CD+G disc containing four songs, tracks one through four will have the music

only without vocals, and tracks five through eight will have the same four songs recorded with music on the left channel

and the vocal tracks on the right channel.

If you wish to sing along “solo” without any other vocals, you should select tracks one through four (for example). If you

wish to sing a “duet” or be part of a group, select tracks five through eight (for example) that contain both the music and

vocals.

NOTE: Make sure the BALANCE control is set to the center position so you can hear both the vocal and music tracks at

an equal level.

MICROPHONE FEEDBACK:

“Feedback” is a howling or screeching sound that occurs when the microphone comes too close to the speaker(s). To

avoid microphone feedback, keep the microphone as far away from the speakers as the microphone cable will allow. If

you must bring the microphone close to the speakers, such as when you are changing a disc or adjusting one of the

other controls on the front of the unit, set the microphone ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.

Insert a CD+G disc. Insert the

microphone into the MIC jack(s).

Make sure the unit is connected

to a TV or TV and stereo as

shown on pages 6 and 7.

Adjust the VOCAL control as

described below.

Press the Play/Pause ( )

button to start CD/CD+G

playback.

If connected to a TV and using a

CD+G disc, the image and lyrics

will appear on the TV.

Adjust the MIC VOLUME control ❶ as desired. Increasing this control

will increase the volume of the microphone. Adjust the ECHO control ❷

to add an echo effect to your voice. The ECHO control ❷ is variable so

add as much or as little reverb as desired.

Sing or talk into the

microphone and you will hear both the CD+G and the microphone.

When the VOCAL feature is

activated, the vocals on a

multiplex recording are muted as

soon as the singer begins singing

into the microphone. When the

singer stops singing, the vocals

are automatically unmuted. Adjust

the VOCAL control for the best

balance between playback and

microphone levels.

IMPORTANT: This feature only

works with multiplex CDs.
