Well if its a question of religion or politics. We may need to look into this...maybe setup a committee. No just kidding....

Well let me put my 10 cents...I have been using Hoster for three years, prior to Hoster I used a competitor software, and found it wanting, before that I handled 500 disks and two karaoke players a JVC three tray and A DVD kararoke disk that played the competitors disks and CDG's. Slows down a show. I would handle about 15 singers in an hour, I just cut down the mickey mouse to a minimum and be ready to move on to the next singer. With Hoster, not only can I turn out 8-10 singers more an hour, I carry around a lot less equipment and no disks in the process.

Hoster is quality and efficiency at the right price, and I dare say blows away the competition by leaps and bounds. I can carry my whole CD library on a WD external drive, plug it into my laptop, connect my laptop to my mixer and TV and away I go!

The question is? Would you go back to that kind of night if everything digital you own failed, or would you take the night off and let someone else have it perhaps, or would you lug all your stuff for that night? 14 have answered that they wouldn't bother and oerhaps find a sub that night. What would you do?

Not to get off track, just curious, how? Do you limit songs timewise? Most songs avg about 4 minutes & with absolutely no down time in between would yield 15 singers maximum per hour @ 4 minutes per song?

I was thinking the same thing Lon.

Kinda like the 60 man rotation. In a five hour show, Using Lonman's math, the first 15 may sing twice, the rest only once. Not many karaoke faithful will sit four hours knowing they will not sing again that night.
