try{RhapsodyPlayer.registerPagePlayButton();}catch(e){}Sorry, I could not read the content fromt this page.Karaoke bars probably established their roots in the early twentieth century in Japan during the Taisho rule. "Utagoe Kissa," or "coffee shop," became popular with customers who tried out their singing talents backed up by music from a live band. Soon, the trend caught up with the rest of the world, and karaoke bars are now the ideal place for fun and unwinding after a hard day's work.
Picture a typical karaoke bar today. Customers, having a few drinks, and a good time -- probably not gifted with the ability to sing, but that doesn't matter. They take the stage, and with microphone in hand try belting out a popular song- with friends razzing in the background. The lyrics are displayed on the screen, and the music is provided by the karaoke machine.
Simply put, an American karaoke bar is a restaurant or a bar having a karaoke machine that allows customers to exercise their singing abilities publicly. Though it is not uncommon to have karaoke shows every night, the schedule is generally on a weekly basis. There is the 'rotation' policy where a singer has to wait his turn to take the stage. The time between different performers is an hour or so.
Karaoke boxes (KTV) are highly popular in some places, especially in Taiwan. In a room of medium size, complete with karaoke paraphernalia, friends can get together and enjoy karaoke. Karaoke boxes are a more private means of entertainment. Around fifteen to twenty of these boxes are scattered around the room accompanying the main karaoke bar. It is commonly believed that the karaoke box concept started in South Korea where it was known as "noraebang" ("norae" and "bang" meaning song and room respectively).
Karaoke boxes became popular in North American during the 90's. However, karaoke bars are still the major source of karaoke entertainment. In China, there are "mahjong-karaoke rooms", where teenagers can enjoy karaoke and the aged indulge in mahjong, a game played by four players that originated in China.

Adding to the confusion is the fact that there are so many different types of karaoke machines. They do not all use the same type of equipment. Different machines have different features. Plus they don't even use the same type of technology on their song disks! How do you make sense of it all?
Here to help you is Karaoke Machines 101: Everything You Need To Know! So let's get started. The first thing to be clear on is what all those terms mean that you hear bandied about.
Karaoke System - The karaoke system is the karaoke player, the monitor, the speakers, and can include the library of karaoke songs played by the player.
Karaoke Machine - usually this term is used to mean the karaoke player, or the machine that plays the karaoke music. However, some karaoke systems are all-in-one units which include the player, the speakers, and the monitor all on one machine. In this case, the karaoke machine is the entire system.
Karaoke Player - the machine that physically plays the karaoke songs.
Karaoke Monitor - the screen where the lyrics to the songs show up. The all-in-one units include this screen on the machine. Other systems use your TV as the monitor and for the speakers, too.
So that also explains your 2 basic types of karaoke systems. You have the all-in-one units, and you have the karaoke machines that hook up to your TV, similar to a DVD player.
Now let's look at the different types of karaoke song disks. The mainstream, and most popular, types of disks include DVDs, CDGs, CD+Gs, MP3s, and in-built songs. Most karaoke machines are built to accept one kind or the other, instead of all the different kinds.
DVDs - These are regular DVDs which include the music sound track and then the pictures on your screen are the lyrics. Most of the time you have the lyrics against a solid background. A lot of the newer ones, though, include moving, scenic backgrounds or videos.
CDGs, CD+Gs - Both of these terms mean the same thing. Basically, it is a CD for the sound track, but the CD is also embedded with the graphics, which are the lyrics to the songs. So the "G" simply stands for graphics.
MP3s - These are usually for your computer, MP3 player, or Ipod. You can find software which will strip the vocals from your MP3s so that you can then use the sound tracks for karaoke.
In-built - Some karaoke machines come with their own libraries of karaoke songs, so they are already built into the system.
Lastly, let's look at the various features available on your karaoke machines. Karaoke machines have different features you can use to make the singer sound better and more professional. These features include being able to change the pitch of the song, the key, the tempo, the volume. Being able to add echo to your voice is pretty standard, but some machines also include different ways to adjust this feature also, such as setting different echo lengths. Some machines call the echo feature "reverb".
All karaoke machines have an input for a microphone. But what if you want to sing duets? For this reason, many of the machines now include two microphone inputs. But only some of them have the capability to adjust each microphone separately for pitch and volume.
Another feature that you might like is a scoring system. With this feature you can have karaoke contests or see how your own routine improves with practice. The few machines that have this system usually score your performance on how well you control things like your pitch, tempo, volume, and tone.
There is one other feature that only some karaoke machines include, but it could be an important feature to you. These machines have the capability to let you play the songs with the vocals included to learn the songs, and then you can turn off the vocals to sing karaoke style.
So basically, all those different models, all those different features, and all those kinds of disks, boil down to just a few key concepts. Understanding these concepts will take you a long way towards understanding pretty much any model of karaoke machine. Now that you know them all, have some fun with your karaoke machines!

Everybody loves to sing, especially kids. One of the best toys for today's child is the kids karaoke machine. Kids absolutely them. These machines allow children to sing and dance and express themselves. They also enable a child to sing along to songs, and on some machines read the song lyrics from off of a monitor.
Karaoke machines can be hooked up to a television monitor and a microphone is used to sing into. Tempo, pitch and audio quality can all be adjusted. Songs are added digitally to the database of the karaoke machine. Many karaoke machines also provide singers rating on the songs that they have sung.
In addition to karaoke machines there are also karaoke CDs. These can be played with a DVD player, computer or video game console.
There are also karaoke machines that are basically just a microphone. Children love singing into these microphone-based models. To work the microphone just needs to be connected up to the TV. Just type in the numbers on the keypad for the song you want to play and sing along. Most microphone models will allow you to change the chips so you can play new songs. Many of these machines are battery operated.

In addition to voice projection, other features to look for include the ability modify the machine's audio quality by manually adjusting the tone, pitch bass and other types of sound elements.
Video graphics is another consideration. Some kids karaoke machines come with video graphics that can be changed.
Portability is another consideration. If your children want to take the karaoke machine along when traveling, parties, sleep overs or other types of activities you might want to get a portable kids karaoke machine. A microphone based machine will work well for this.
Some karaoke machines provides ratings for singers and some do not. Those machines that do will be more expensive but they provide your children with feedback on whether or not their singing is improving.
Another important consideration is whether or not the karaoke machine allows you to add more songs into the database or change the chips or discs to add new music.
Durability is also an important feature for kids karaoke machines. Inexpensive machines do not tend to be as durability or well made as higher end machines.
Finally what sorts of accessories are available with the karaoke machine. There are amplifiers and connectors to allow you to hook your kids karaoke machine up through your computer or to sing in the car.

With new technology being developed over the last decade, the market place has been flooded with all types of karaoke machines, with different features and functions. Below is a list of Karaoke System types that are the most popular. These are the types of machines you will probably be purchasing.
All-in-one Karaoke Machines
These types of karaoke systems are just what the name implies. That is these types include the Karaoke part, speakers, and a built-in monitor. Everything you will need to enjoy Karaoke. To play music with these Karaoke Machines you require a collection of CDG or CD+Graphics discs. (Some Karaoke Machine have the capability of playing DVD as well.) These types of machines will play music and display song lyrics. Within this type of Karaoke Machine you will find a variations of machines that will have different features and functions. Some will have a built-in video camera, cassette decks, high speaker wattage, USB/SD memory ports, and digital key control. If you choose this type of Karaoke you will have to decide what features you want and then find a machine that fits your needs. For example, some machines maybe smaller or more portable than others. If you plan on moving the Karaoke often, you may want to look for these smaller more portable machines.
Karaoke Machines that connect to TV or Monitor
Another type of Karaoke System is one where it has to be connected to a Television. The machine itself is capable of the karaoke part but needs a monitor to display song lyrics. And in some cases they also require speakers for the audio. As with the all-in-one systems, they are many variations of this type. Some may be bulky while others very portable. Some you will need to purchase karaoke CDs or DVDs in order to use it. There are also a few that have internal memory that can store karaoke music.
MP3s or iPod Karaoke Machines
This type of Machine is the newest. With the advent of the MP3 player and especial the iPod, Karaoke Systems have adapted to include this popular technology. It works by transforming your Karaoke into a MP3 player. You can download music, along with the songs lyrics file into the machine. Then play the MP3s back and sing along with the music while the lyrics get displayed. Most machines of this type will allow you to remove the lead vocals from the track.
Which type of Karaoke you choose depends entirely on you. One type is not necessarily better than the other. Each type has a wide range of styles. Ranging from the very basic to the more professional. Each Machine, regardless of type, will have many different functions and features. You have to look at each one individually and decide which Karaoke System best suites your needs. But now that you know the different types of Karaoke Machines you have a better understanding of making an informed decision.

There is a new revolution in the US, and it's called karaoke! Invented in the 1970s in Japan, this fun new venue of entertainment is now enjoyed all across Asia, Europe, and the USA. On any given day, you may hear karaoke songs wafting out of your neighborhood nightclub. You can take a karaoke break at your local bowling alley on Karaoke Night. Or you might find yourself enjoying a song with your karaoke Ipod wherever you happen to roam.
Your next exercise class is likely to be a Spinning Karaoke class, where you sing karaoke while riding a stationary bicycle. And to add to your pleasure, you can now get your own full-featured karaoke player to enjoy a round of karaoke songs with your loved ones, right in your own home, whenever you want!
Having your own home karaoke machine brings the ultimate entertainment to you with the click of a button. In addition, your karaoke player will also bring you health benefits, help your children learn to read, save you money on entertainment costs, and even help you learn other languages! It's versatile and beneficial!
With more and more health challenge alerts on the news every day, it's nice to know that something as fun as a karaoke player can help you keep fit and healthy. Singing karaoke songs can give you a hefty workout, especially when you belt out the songs and dance like a rock star while you are singing. In order to sing properly, you need to breathe deeply, thus helping to keep your lungs in shape. You burn lots of calories, exercise your muscles and your heart, and release tension and anxiety. Karaoke singing even releases a surge of endorphins (the "happy" hormones that make you feel GOOD)! You could think of your karaoke machine as an effective workout machine that leaves you feeling GOOD when you use it!
Home karaoke machines are easily available, and can now bring you a lot of the features previously found only in the best karaoke bars. You can find karaoke players that let you control the pitch, tempo, and key of each song to better match your voice range, so that your singing sounds better. You can adjust the echo on your voice, too, so that you have that professional quality sound.
And you can even find models, such as The SongStation Karaoke Machine, that fit all these features into a small machine the size of a slim-line DVD player, hook up to your own home entertainment system, and have an instant inbuilt karaoke song library right at your fingertips!
No wonder the home karaoke machine is fueling the latest entertainment revolution today!

For myself, a professional karaoke show is when you sing at particular establishment and the host knows exactly what they're doing and the system sounds great. Although it is sad to say, there is too large a number of karaoke hosts across the US of A that are desperately undeserving to run a show. So my question to you is this: Shouldn't there be a training center for karaoke hosting; a school that someone may take steps to train in this field to be a professional independent entrepreneur? Unfortunately there is not.
How a lot of these people across the country simply sit back and think of themselves as being successful Karaoke Hosts, is hard to believe. If all that is needed to be a professional Karaoke Host, to make other people sound great on stage, is to buy a player and some cdg's and instantly go into business without training...somebody is sadly mistaken. It only stands to reason that education is a very powerful tool that everyone should take advantage of in every field of endeavor; a strict criteria to learn a trade. Even a hamburger flipper learns the correct way on how to make a hamburger, if not, he is immediately replaced by someone who can.
Some time back, I had gone out to a well known karaoke club. The usual KJ moved out of town and was replaced by a new karaoke host. I was very disappointed to find the new Karaoke Host (his first time out in uncharted territory) wandering around the room aimlessly, not paying any attention to the sound or the singers. The music kept getting louder and louder to where it nearly drowned out the vocals of every singer completely. In addition, he didn't even bother adding any effects to the singer's voice. He had terrible feedback problems because the speakers were placed improperly and he did not even have a floor speaker monitor so you could hear yourself. This seemed to go on for several excruciating weeks without change until I couldn't take it anymore. Needless to say, I left that club to find another, vowing never to go back again.
To call yourself a Karaoke Host you must not only require the knowledge in what you are doing, but you need to learn the proper fundamentals to accomplish this goal. Most individuals are so excited; pre-occupied at getting the jobs first, they fail to realize the importance of what they need to know to be worthy. Buying the proper equipment and how they must set-up and use it with good customer service, should be mandatory. There also should be a guide to know what to charge for their services. For instance, that inexperienced KJ charged $75.00 a night to work (below the going rate) only to cut rate another, more experienced, Karaoke Host to steal the job from him. I don't know too many people that can just walk in, right off the street, and immediately start work, at a job without knowing what to do, how to do it or what to charge for it.
Now what all motivated Karaoke Hosts should really be concerned with at this point is when going into such a popular profession, go in with your eyes wide open. Prepare to take advantage of an opportunity and learn your trade. It is far better to have all that you need at your fingertips and to do it right then to simply chance it.
For many people the ability to run their own business hosting a karaoke show, for the satisfaction of making a decent income, and the direct pleasure of making people happy who enjoy singing, requires the knowledge to know how. One of the easiest steps to accomplish this goal for any beginner or veteran KJ that might want to refresh his skills, is to acquire secrets, tools, and techniques of the trade in the form of a complete handbook, that I have found on the web, that catalogues the latest details on how to be successful and become an experienced karaoke professional.
Fortunately, this is the perfect handbook that anyone can reference all the proper information they could possibly ever need. Then after learning these secrets, tools and techniques, skilled with the educational advantage that you lacked before and you have become properly trained to set-up and use the high quality of equipment you purchased, you can proceed forward. I suggest you visit the website http://www.singclean.com to buy this very informative karaoke handbook that you can keep with you at all times for constant reference. It is called "Secrets Revealed to Karaoke Cash $$$" explaining in detail on how to find your way to get your business up and running, where to buy all the equipment you'll need, how to set it up, and where to get a job and keep it. It gives secrets of the trade, tips and lots of valuable information. Most importantly: How much money you should make.
This hefty compilation of highly illustrated material is a complete karaoke handbook, and even provides the most recent copyright law information. This new addition has material, including a bonus appendix of casinos in the United States, that you might want to contact in order to get work. In addition, it has many useful links as well. This makes a great gift to anyone who plans a career in the karaoke entertainment business. I hope you enjoyed reading this article and found the information useful and interesting.

Would you like to karaoke every night, or at least several times per week?
Do you enjoy being the one working the karaoke machine?
Has your entrepreneurial spirit led you to look for a fun business?
If you answered these questions with a resounding "YES!" then becoming a karaoke DJ may be just the thing you have been searching for! Getting started as a karaoke DJ may be easier than you think, too!
What exactly is involved in starting your own karaoke DJ business?
Most importantly, you need some good quality equipment: a professional level karaoke machine, microphones, speakers, a monitor for the lyrics, a large karaoke music library, speaker stands, and cords.
Some clubs have their own speaker system you can plug into. A lot of them now have large television screens, too, so if you have a karaoke machine which utilizes a television to display the lyrics, you don't have to provide the monitor. So in some locations you can get away without bringing the speakers, speaker stands, or the monitor, but very few clubs provide their own karaoke machine or their own karaoke music.
If you would like to cut down on your expenses, and on the amount of equipment you need to haul in and set up at each gig, a great suggestion is to look into The SongStation Karaoke Machine.
What else do you need besides your karaoke machine to start your business?
A dynamic personality to cheer on the crowd and get them going is a big plus! Also, a good singing voice is an asset, because sometimes it's YOU who sings the first karaoke song!
You also need business cards with your contact information to help market your business. To get the business started, you want to talk to every club owner you can reach. Places like bowling alleys are also starting to catch the Karaoke bug, and often enjoy setting up one night a week as Karaoke Night. New retail businesses may want to host a Karaoke Night to start bringing in their customers. Radio stations are candidates, since they host promotional events all the time.
Locate your local wedding planners, event planners, party planners. Leave your cards with caterers, florists, wedding photographers, videographers. Even your local churches and school districts may enjoy having a Karaoke Night fundraiser. Party supply houses might let you leave a stack of business cards at their registers. The supply of new leads for your Karaoke DJ business is endless. Everyone loves a good Karaoke Party!
And last, but not least, you can always run the ad: Have Karaoke Machine. Will Travel.
So with a little guts, a little gusto, and a karaoke machine, you can soon be on your way to Karaoke DJ happiness!
