What file types are on the USB drive?

In today's world of pandemic one may have to do away with old school ways of taking requests unless you want to catch the virus. I am going to only get my requests via Remote request app and kiosk for those who don't have smartphones. Seems kind of a moot point considering you still have to pass th...

MP3+G (in particular zipped MP3+G) is by far the most popular karaoke file format available today. It is supported by virtually every karaoke hosting software application. It also offers more song titles and makes the best use of hard drive space. Properly naming your song files is extremely importa...

Seriously considering (attempting) to KJ here in the Rio Grande Valley (Pharr, Tx) in the same type venues as you speak of DanG2006. There are numerous RV Resorts/Nursing/Assisted Living/VA homes down here that could use some weekly (early) evening 50's-60's-Country music fun. I've owned a RSQ (Neo...

From within the LYRX Karaoke Hosting for Mac and Windows software you can subscribe to the Party Tyme Karaoke song service and get access to over 15,000 karaoke songs for $99 per month. Here is a list of their songs.

Just read on Sunfly's Facebook page that the Hits series is retiring at disc SF400 and that no new series is planned. All future releases will be individual downloads.

You can use a website like https://ytoffline.net/ to download YouTube videos. Just go to YouTube and search for the song you want and then paste its url into the provided field at ytoffline and then click the GO button. You will be given a link to download the song as an MP4 video file. MP4 videos c...

Where and why did you get all those unnecessary electronics? Of all that stuff all you need are the player, Yamaha mixer, microphones, and speakers. Those are active speakers that do not need a separate amplifier and everything the rest of those components do can be handled by the mixer. You simply ...

The receiver in a karaoke system is used as an amplifier when you use passive (non-powered) speakers. Since you are using active speakers (each speaker having its own integrated amplifier) you will have no need for a receiver at all. All audio will go through the mixer and the mixed signal will go o...

I see nothing wrong with any of that equipment. The Yamaha mixer has other connection options additional to USB making it east to connect to virtually any TV. You should take Dan's suggestion that you go with software like Siglos Karaoke Player/Recorder . It has a feature to let you search for and p...

Power CD+G Burner does all that for you. It's the only program you need.

What you have are known as MP3+G karaoke songs. You can use Power CD+G Burner and blank CD-R discs to create CD+G discs that will play in virtually all CD+G disc players. See this Create a CD+G Disc from MP3+G Files tutorial . You don't "burn" files to a hard drive. You either copy them or...

That machine does not play video formats like MP4 and MP4 cannot be converted to a format that the machine supports. It does have support for iPad and tablets so you may be able to play the MP4 on one of those devices connected to the karaoke machine.

What is the make and model of the karaoke machine?

When I DJ I use a very stable program designed specifically for DJing. When I perform karaoke I use a very stable program designed specifically for hosting karaoke. It's very quick and simple to switch between the two. I turn filler music on only when I have singers that are slow to come get the mic...
