You asked some good questions. I can't respond to all of them . Maybe 1 and a half.

MTU doesn't sell a product that separates lyrics from music. I've seen some on the market but never had any success. You seem to be expressing the need for a product that not only separates the lyrics, but also saves them at some sort of performance pace.

You can't get this from an existing cdg. However KPRO allows us to save projects. That means it allows us to Sync words at a certain pace and save it that way. We can substitute music, and the words will still highlight themselves at the pace that we did it at originally.

My experience with a vocal reduced file:

Create wave file of song.

Vocal reduce the file (you should now have two wave files)

Using original performance music, sync the words.

Save that as a CDG (excellent for learning)

Substitute the vocal reduced file for the performance one (It will be exactly the same length)

You can save it right away as a CDG without any further tapping.

This is your performance CDG.





Sites for lyrics

I don't bother with links to sites.

I just type a line from the song, in quotation marks, in my search engine. It usually takes me to several sites with the lyrics. Sometimes, to further refine the search, outside of the quotation marks, I type a couple of words that should probably also appear like: Lyrics, or Disney, or Beatles

Hope I have helped.

PS. You can take a cdg file, like one created using KPRO and copy it as a file to a disc using any CD burner. To create a CDG disc playable in a Karaoke player, you need special cd burners. I'm not sure if yours will work. Depending on which machines have the programs, you could create a cdg file at work, copy it as a file with any burner, take it home and create a Karaoke disc. It's usually desireable to have the whole package on one machine, of course.
