By attaching a microphone (not supplied) to the MIC jack, you can
use the System for Karaoke or microphone mixing. You can also
add an echo to the microphone's sound.
CAUTION:
• Always set the MIC LEVEL control on the Unit to
MIN when connection or disconnecting the mi-
crophone.
• When you will not be the microphone, keep the MIC LEV-
EL control set to MIN, and disconnect the microphone.

Singing Along with Karaoke

The Vocal Masking function lets you use regular tapes, CDs, or
records as sources for Karaoke. When you select Karaoke mode,
the lead vocal volume of the source is reduced, and you can replay
it by singing into the microphones as the music plays.

• Avoid using the following source as the playing source for
Vocal Masking, since you cannot get the satisfactory re-
sults.
• Radio programs — a radio signal is not as reliable as
the signals coming from a tape or CD.
• Monaural sources.
• Poorly dubbed tapes.
• Sources recorded with dusts, strong echo, a chorus, or
only a few instruments.
