Karaoke Glossary of Terms
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. The 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.
Multiplex:
A multiplex CD+G is really three recordings on one CD+G. The right channel has a mono
recording which allows you to sing a duet with the lead singer. The left channel has a
mono recording of the same music, WITHOUT the lead singer. Multiplex control allows
the singer to gradually go from left channel to right channel. thereby gradually fading out
the vocal.
Multiplex Karaoke Disc (CD+G):
Multiplex Karaoke Disc(CD+G) is when music is on the left balance side and vocals are
on the right balance side.
Regular Karaoke Disc (CD+G):
Regular karaoke CD+G only have music WITHOUT Vocals on them. Check CD+G
verbiage before buying to get the correct Disc your want. All CD+G have lyrics on TV.
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. In layment’s terms. CD+G has a 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 displays
lyrics which change color swiped as they are to be sung. A TV with a Video in RCA Jack is
all that is required to display CD+G lyrics.
Please note:- If not use the this function, please unplug it.
