The Karaoke Forum

Nothing had been left out of my last post. The KJ's who are scrambling for work have over 10 years of experience. The venues offering karaoke and the audience for it is are both declining. It's just not what it used to be. When more of the KJ's (supply and demand) decide to leave the business, and I...

Fong BD is most concerned about his professionalism and reputation, and I respect him for that. As a businessman, however, he has much to learn. To start with, I know local kj's that make as much as BD and they: -don't have as much invested in audio equipment as BD or do have as much invested but ch...

I'm not a KJ Dan but many of the KJ's I know run their shows in mono. No one is asserting that karaoke discs are, by definition, in mono. What I am saying is that I've been told that the vocals and recordings should not be split between right and left channels. Every speaker should have the same out...

According to the experts I know, Karaoke is MONO....the singer comes through both speakers (or one)

So, now we have the actual document that has stirred up the "hornet's nest" IT IS NOT A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER. So my instincts were correct that there never was such a letter. The letter that was actually sent simply provided the recipient with general information about copyright law. An...

At a show I attend on Sundays a Fender PD250 is in use. The host of that show works seven days a week. At that show there are usually between 40-50 singers. Since Sunday is a day many KJ's don't want to work, among the singers are anywhere from 3-6 local, REGULARLY WORKING kJ's. SO... does that mean...

Even though I am not a KJ I too am too smart to debate with you

The PD150watt Fender can be had for under $400. You would need speaker stands (no more than $100 for a pair). The total unit weighs way under 30#'s. It comes with a mic. The speakers can be positioned wherever you want. And if you're really thinking of taking your equipment outdoors, the Fender offe...

Real KJ's will avoid debates with you because the casual observer will be unable to determine who is the REAL KJ and who is the FOOL

xquisite The 500watt Yamaha system recommended by Big Dog looks good; I really like it! HOWEVER, for a home system I recommend the 150watt Fender Passport, particularly the PD series. They're a great value. They sound great and you'll never need more wattage. Three KJ's in my area have Passport syst...

I have a feeling that you maybe missing something important here. You really don't need an invoice. You need to have a contract. You really need a contract. With a contract, you don't need an invoice. And with a contract you should be paid when the job is done, so again you don't need an invoice!

For diversity and lots of tracks get one of the Supercore packs

POSTING FOUND ON ANOTHER FORUM dated 1am EST March 8, 2007 (THIS HAS BEEN CONDENSED) per a Phoenix KJ The letters you are talking about have been sent via certified mail to nearly every one of our bars. The letter is a simple cover letter telling the bar they are at risk by having a host using comp...

Wiseguy I understand your thinking in this regard. I have had a different opinion for quite some time now, and only a copy of the "cease and desist" letter with the name of the venue who received it will change my thinking. Consider, first of all, that I have been suspect of the tone and s...

I am also looking into wireless equipment at this time. Two KJ's I know highly recommend Vocopro mics. I've used 'em; they're very good. I, am still considering, however, Hisonics Has anyone any info regarding Hisonics as to how much, if any noise, "hand holding" can generate? The Vocopros...
