Protect Your Furniture; Glossary Of Karaoke - Karaoke Night KN275 User Manual

PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE!!

This system is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from moving when
you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating rubber material specially
formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil
based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber 'feet'
to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture.
To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small
self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement centers
everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the
product on fine wooden furniture.

GLOSSARY OF KARAOKE

In addition to all of the terminology associated with consumer electronics products, a few
additional terms are used almost exclusively in karaoke. These terms are meant to familiarize
you with the world of karaoke. The features listed below may not necessarily apply to the
particular model that you have. Following are some brief explanations:
Echo:
Echo adds depth and resonance to a singer's voice, without affecting the music. This echo is
produced by creating minor controlled feedback in the singer's voice.
CDGMs (Compact Disc Plus Graphics Multiplex):
They are CD's that contain songs that include the lead singer's voice, which can be removed
with a karaoke system that has a balance or multiplex control. The idea is to sing along with the
lead singer or replace the lead singer's voice with yours. Background vocals and backup
singers are provided.
Automatic Voice Control (AVC):
When the AVC function is activated, the vocals on a multiplex recording are eliminated as
soon as the singer begins singing into the microphone. When the singer stops singing, the
vocals on the multiplex recording are automatically re-activated. This useful function is used
primarily during practice sessions while a singer is learning a song. Please note that the AVC
function only works with multiplex recordings and not with standard audio recordings.
CD+G:
This is an acronym for Compact Disc plus Graphics. You will also see variations CD+G and
CD+Graphics. This is a regular CD with information stored on a data track simultaneous to
music. CD+G has video output for simple graphics (not full motion video). In the case of
karaoke, the graphics function is used to store song lyrics and display the lyrics in sync with
music. In most cases, CD+G software displayed lyrics change color as they are to be sung. A
regular television with a video-in RCA jack is all that is required to display CD+G lyrics.
