CD vs. CD+G
CD+Gs, or CD+Graphics, are CDs that are specially formatted for use with karaoke machines. In addition to
the audio tracks, they contain graphics and text for lyrics that will appear on the screen while the CD is playing.
Switching the unit to CD+G mode will activate the screen and display lyrics from the loaded CD+G. You must set
the source to match the type of disc you wish to play. CD mode should only be used to play CDs. Likewise, CD+G
mode should only be used to play CD+Gs.
Automatic Voice Control
Automatic Voice Control allows the karaoke machine to compensate for irregularities in microphone voice input.
It also serves to blend or separate the user’s voice from the recorded vocals on an audio track. Press the AVC
button to activate Automatic Voice Control. Please note that AVC only works when someone is actively singing into
the microphone.
To manually adjust voice control, use the Echo and Balance knobs on the front of the unit.
