VocoPro DVG-380K User manual

MP3 Functions and Operations
The DVG-380K can play back MP3’s files recorded to CD-ROM, CD-R or CD-RW discs.
Notes on MP3 Discs
An MP3 file stores audio data that has been compressed using the MPEG1 encoding scheme. Although PC
terminology regarding MP3s and storage is, "files" and "folders", in this manual we refer to them as "tracks and
albums".
Notes on Playing MP3s
•An MP3 track must be recorded on a disc in the format compliant with ISO9660. Track order may differ from
MP3 player to MP3 player.
• The maximum allowable number of tracks and/or albums located on a disc is 900, including the root
albums (directory).
• The maximum allowable depth of a nested folder is 127, including files.
•If a disc contains both audio as well as MP3 tracks, it will not play in the DVG-380K.
•Multi-session discs are limited to a total of 20 sessions.
•MP3 playback is optimal with MP3s encoded with a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz and a fixed bit rate of
128 kbps.
•The unit may not play MP3 tracks recorded using a packet writing utility.
•The unit can only play back MP3 tracks having a file extension of ".mp3".
•It may take 30 seconds or more before the unit can start playback of MP3’s. This time depends on the
number of recorded tracks and the complexity of the album tree.
•If you play a non-MP3 track that has the ".mp3" file extension, the unit will skip to the next valid
track automatically.
•Digital recordings with this unit cannot be done while playing back MP3 discs.
Notes on display indications during playback
•Up to 8 characters are displayed for the name of an album or track.
•Characters other than uppercase letters ("A" to "Z"), numerals ("0" to "9") and underscore ("_") may not be
displayed, or may be displayed in different characters.
•The elapsed playing time may not be displayed correctly for MP3 tracks.
•Depending on the condition of the recording equipment or the CD-R/RW disc itself, a false album or track
which cannot by played on the unit may be displayed on a TV screen.
Notes on creating MP3 discs
•When converting audio data to MP3, create MP3 files with a sampling frequency of 44.1 kHz and a fixed bit
rate of 128 kbps.
•When creating MP3 discs, do not store more than 900 albums and/or tracks in a disc.
•To play tracks in the order they were recorded, ensure your encoding software is set up to auto arrange by
name, or use only one album (if they are already alphabetized) or place a three digit number in front of each
track to set an order manually.
Recommended = 001-Song.mp3, 002-Song.mp3, 003-Song.mp3…
Not Recommended = 1-Song.mp3, 5-Song.mp3, 10-Song.mp3…

MP3 Functions and Operations
MP3 Glossary
File Extension – A 3-character string added to a file name under the Windows or DOS environment is called a
"file extension". A file extension is used mainly to identify types of files. The file extension for MP3 files is ".mp3".
ISO 9660 – ISO stands for the "International Organization for Standardization". ISO 9660 determines the file
structure for CD-ROMs. This unit can play MP3 files recorded in the format compliant with ISO 9660.
Nesting of folders (albums) – To organize all your data files stored in a PC, you can store related files in a
folder. A folder can contain other folders as well as files. For example, FOLDER A can contain FOLDER B (as
well as files) and FOLDER B can contain FOLDER C (as well as other files).
Session – A session is one uninterrupted section of written data on a disc. A multi-session disc is a disc that has
more than two sessions.
MP3 Playback
Load an MP3 disc.
The disc will automatically load and display the MP3 window. It may take up to 20 seconds for an MP3 disc to be
read depending on the complexity of the file structure.
Enabling Smart Navigation.
Smart Navigation enables the user the opportunity to select one of 10 available MP3 playback modes. If Smart
Navigation is disabled, MP3 discs will autoplay with no menu options when inserted. To enable Smart Navigation

Glossary
Digital Echo- Digital echo is a synthetically processed sound effect that mimics natural echo. Echo in general
is the "bouncing" of waves back and forth between 2 surfaces. This effect gives a spacious or ambient feeling
that works great with vocals.
Repeat- Repeat is facet of the echo process. Repeat refers to the frequency of echoes within a period of time.
Delay- Delay is also a facet of the echo process. Delay refers to the amount of time that exists between
echoes.
Vocal Cancel- Vocal Cancel is a feature that removes vocals from multiplex CD tracks. To be multiplexed, a
disc must have the vocals coded to the right channel and the music coded to the left channel. When you select
Vocal Cancel, the unit will remove the right channel (vocals) and split the left channel (music) to both sides.
Vocal Partner- Vocal Partner is a feature that removes vocals from multiplex CD tracks much in the same way
as Vocal Cancel, but with an added "auto-pilot" function. The main difference is that Vocal Partner will only
remove vocals as long as there is activity going through the microphone (singing). When you stop singing, the
vocals automatically return.
Vocal Reducer – Vocal Reducer is a feature that removes vocals from standard non-multiplex CD tracks. To do
this, the unit compares the audio on the left and right channels, and cancels out any signals that appear on
both. Most currently recorded CD’s contain the vocal layer on both sides, however some may not, leading to
varying results.
CD+G- A CD+G is a specially formatted disc that has an additional line of sub-code on the CD that is
responsible for the lyrics that play on video screen for Karaoke systems. CD+G stands for Compact Disc +
Graphics.
Sub-Code – Sub-code is specially coded area of data used by CD+G manufacturers to produce lyrics for
Karaoke video output.
Multiplex (MPX)- Multiplex is a type of Karaoke software that has specially formatted left and right channels to
make multiplex features available. To be formatted for multiplex use, a disc must have the vocals coded to the
right channel and the music to the left channel. When you select a multiplex mode, the unit will remove the right
channel (vocals) and split the left channel (music) to both sides.
Rack Mountable- Rack Mountable refers to the ability to place unit into professional or travel rack cases. Such
cases are great for building complete systems and protect them during transportation. The standard rack size
for MOST cases is 19".
VCD- VCD is a disc formatted in MPEG-1. These discs are good candidates for Karaoke use as they have an
audio and a video layer to them. VCD stands for Video Compact Disc.

Glossary
A/V- A/V is an abbreviation for Audio/Visual.
Y-Adapter - Any type of connection that splits a signal into two parts. An example would be a connector with
one male RCA jack on one end, and two female RCA jacks on the other end.
Woofer - A speaker, (driver), used for low-frequency reproduction. Usually larger and heavier than a midrange
or tweeter.
Midrange - A speaker, (driver), used to reproduce the middle range of frequencies. A midrange is combined
with a woofer for low frequencies and a tweeter for high frequencies to form a complete, full-range system.
Tweeter – A speaker, (driver), used to reproduce the higher range of frequencies. To form a full-range system,
a tweeter needs to be combined with a woofer, (2-way system), or a woofer and midrange, (3-way system).
Pre-Amplifier - Or Pre-amp is a device that takes a source signal, such as from a turntable, tape-deck or CD
player, and passes this signal on to a power-amplifier(s). The pre-amp may have a number of controls such as
source selector switches, balance, volume and possibly tone-controls.
Out of Phase - When speakers are mounted in reverse polarity, i.e., one speaker is wired +/+ and -/- from the
amp and the other is wired +/- and -/+. Bass response will be very thin due to cancellation.
Line Level - CD players, VCRs, Laserdisc Players etc., are connected in a system at line level, usually with
shielded RCA type interconnects. Line level is before power amplification. In a system with separate pre-amp
and power-amp the pre-amp output is line level. Many surround sound decoders and receivers have line level
outputs as well.
Frequency - The range of human hearing is commonly given as 20-20,000Hz (20Hz-20kHz). One hertz (Hz)
represents one cycle per second, 20Hz represents 20 cycles per second and so on. Lower numbers are lower
frequencies
Gain - To increase in level. The function of a volume control.
Decibel (dB) - Named after Alexander Graham Bell. We perceive differences in volume level in a logarithmic
manner. Our ears become less sensitive to sound as its intensity increases. Decibels are a logarithmic scale of
relative loudness. A difference of about 1 dB is the minimum perceptible change in volume, 3 dB is a moderate
change in volume, and about 10 dB is an apparent doubling of volume. 0 dB is the threshold of hearing and
130 dB is the threshold of pain.

Glossary
Clipping - Refers to a type of distortion that occurs when an amplifier is driven into an overload condition.
Usually the "clipped" waveform contains an excess of high-frequency energy. The sound becomes hard and
edgy. Hard clipping is the most frequent cause of "burned out" tweeters. Even a low-powered amplifier or
receiver driven into clipping can damage tweeters which would otherwise last virtually forever.
File Extension – A 3-character string added to a file name under the Windows or DOS environment is called a
"file extension". A file extension is used mainly to identify types of files. The file extension for MP3 files is
".mp3".
ISO 9660 – ISO stands for the "International Organization for Standardization". ISO 9660 determines the file
structure for CD-ROMs. This unit can play MP3 files recorded in the format compliant with ISO 9660.
Nesting of folders (albums) – To organize all your data files stored in a PC, you can store related files in a
folder. A folder can contain other folders as well as files. For example, FOLDER A can contain FOLDER B (as
well as files) and FOLDER B can contain FOLDER C (as well as other files).
Session – A session is one uninterrupted section of written data on a disc. A multi-session disc is a disc that
has more than two sessions.

Karaoke Functions and Operations
Notes on Karaoke Media
There are various types of Karaoke media available for playback with the DVG-380K. You can perform
Karaoke with standard CD, MP3, CDG, VCD and DVD formats. The thing to remember is how each type differs
as far as audio channels and video support.
Standard CD
While standard CD’s are not designed for Karaoke applications, it is still possible to practice Karaoke with
them. There will be no graphics (lyrics) to view on a TV since there is no video coding, however because the
vocals are audible, you can follow along and practice your accuracy.
CDG
CDG has been the most commonly used format of Karaoke media for the last 7 years. It is very similar to a
standard CD, except it has video graphics that are decoded by your Karaoke player and displayed onscreen.
In addition, many CDG’s are specially ‘multiplex’ formatted with background music on the left channel and
vocals on the right channel, so vocal cancellation can be done by simply adjusting the balance control.
VCD
While the VCD format is not as popular in North America as it is in other countries, it remains an excellent
format to be used for Karaoke. Because video is not limited to 16 colors (as with CDG), VCD’s tend to have
motion video behind the lyrics instead of a monotone screen, making them a bit more attractive to party
atmospheres. Most VCD’s also have multiplexed coded audio for easy vocal cancellation.
DVD
DVD is most advanced format of Karaoke media available today, harnessing exceptional audio and video
capabilities. As with VCD, DVD Karaoke media usually has motion video behind the Karaoke lyrics, making
them an attractive choice to lively atmospheres. Also, because DVD audio is 6-channel, vocal cancellation and
enhancement options are greater and higher in sound quality.

Karaoke Functions and Operations
Connecting Microphones
Most standard microphones with a 1⁄4" plug can be connected to the DVG-380K. It is recommended to check
the microphone specifications if you are not sure, prior to using a new microphone.
To connect microphone to microphone input
1. Carefully insert a 1⁄4" microphone plug into one of the microphone channels.
2. Ensure the cable is completely inserted in both the 1⁄4" jack and the microphone itself (if detachable).
