What I would do is import the track to the hard drive with Microstudio as an audio file NOT KARAOKE. Then delete the excess blank lead in left by the MFG's title page, add the click track to it with an audio editor, and save it.
Then combine it with the lyrics and build a new Karaoke track with Karaoke Home Producer. I believe the end result would be cleaner as MP3's are reputed to not be the best audio quality due to over compression. Never having used one, that's based on what I've read in these forums. Yes Jerst, Jim's right in what I meant by sweeping. It is covered in the KHP manual. |

I'm really not an idiot, I just play one on TV
OK, I get most of it, but what do you mean combine it with the lyrics. Do I have to type them in, or can they be extracted from the CDG? I am willing to by the software needed. Right now I only own Hoster, but if other programs are required, then, I'm all over it.

What I meant by combining it with the lyrics was both the audio track and lyrics would have to be imported into Karaoke Home Producer. You can't extract the lyrics from the commercial disc. I set up a folder that I named LYRICS (very original). I go to the internet, find the lyrics, copy and paste them into Word Perfect which will convert text from lower to upper case (that's strictly my way, as I prefer upper case for easier reading). You could copy and paste them in lower case into notepad/wordpad if you use lower case. You can also paste them directly into Karaoke Home Producer but I prefer to prepare them in a seperate folder and then import them into KHP when I'm ready to create the Karaoke file. Either way, it saves a lot of typing. At that time you'd import the altered audio file and the prepared lyrics text file into KHP and create the new Karaoke file. By preparing I mean setting the number of words to a line, font size, instrumental breaks, etc, which is well covered in the manual. At the minimum you'd need Karaoke Home producer and Microstudio. Microstudio to import the track from the disc as an audio track, and KHP to create the new file. You'd also need an audio editor. I've been quite pleased witrh one called Goldwave for several years. As I recall it's in the $50.00 range. As for MTU's Microstudio and KHp, considering the price break, you might want to consider the Karaoke Suite 4., and pick up Keyrite(key changer) and Vogone(vocal remover/reducer). Hope this clears up some mud I may have slung around |

Whooppeee
thanks George, that about covers it.
I am told that some people actually take some istruments out of their audio if they live players to do them. Is there an MTU product that can assist with that. I know there are programs for vocal removal, but is there any way to do it with instruments. Thanks for all your help. Jerry |

I have used Vogone to reduce or remove a lead instrument as well as vocals.
Bear in mind neither vocal removel or instrument removal is a 100% thing 100% of the time. It all depends on the recording. The least effective are mono tracks and older mono stereo remastered tracks. The most effective are stereo tracks where the lead was recorded center panned with little or no digitally added reverb. MTU's newer Vogone is enjoying a degree of success with non-center panned material. Others may have had different results, but that's been my experience. Vogone will handle instruments as well as vocals. |

Vogone
Great, I'll research buying the package. I completely understand the not 200% thing. I have been in or around the Karaoke business for about 15 years, so I've seen em all
Are there parameters that you tweak to remove lead instruments? Sorry, I;m jsut too busy to read the manual right now. Jerry |

I'm not familiar with the newer Vogone as I haven't messed with either Vocal or instrument removal with it, so I'll invite anybody with smarts in that area to dive in, but I'd imagine the process is pretty much as it was when I did play with it, that being it worked the same with either vocals or instruments, as both cover a wide range of frequencies.

Better to work with the wav larger size and better quality, get it all done and then compress it to mp3+g if that is the way you need to go or KMA if using Hoster..
