My main concern is whether it works in the DIRECTION I need. I buy the songs in an online format (because I like computers). My MOTHER can't barely manage email. So I want to convert my computer files back to something that will work in a conventional karaoke player. You think the software mentioned...

Copy/convert MP3 + G to CD (for a conventional player)

I have a TON of songs I've downloaded from Tricerasoft. A ton! But now I want to give my mother a karaoke machine for mother's day. (There is NO WAY she's going to be able to run a PC/laptop player. She's 80.) So...how do I copy/convert all the MP3 + G tunes I have to a disk that could be ready by s...

Best download sites?

Hi all...

I know (and love) Tricerasoft.com. I go there to download 5-10 new songs a week.

But what other sites are there? Does anyone know of any?

Thanks!

Thanks! Thou art truly wise.

Yeah, we just got off the phone with BMI. Not too painful...

But next I guess we're gonna' be hearing from ASCAP?

No letter here, but a bar where I put on a show just got a call from BMI saying they needed to discuss copyright law. The bar owner hasn't called back yet, but both he and I are a bit nervous right now, not sure what's going on. So does anyone have any experience with any calls from BMI? By the way,...

Re: Adding a second monitor...

[quote="mnementh" Ever heard of a USB hub??? :lol: Nope, never have--I'm not an IT guy...but that could be helpful. But how about THIS? I'm really intrigued about using coaxial cable. That's cheap and easy to split. (I could easily afford to use three or four TVs at this one bar where I wo...

How do you use have extended desktop without s-video out?


Hey again...

I have a standard monitor jack...

You think there's an RF Modulator that can plug in there? (The one's I've seen have S-vide jacks, the round ones.)

Best!

Re: Adding a second monitor...

Hey all, Is there an easy way to add a second monitor? Thanks all for the great help! It looks like there are two ways I could go...either the RF Modulator approach or the VGA splitter approach. Neither is perfect for me... My sound system and MOUSE already eat up all my USB ports...(so the VGA spl...

Coaxial is certainly inexpensive...I could easily afford 100 or 200 feet!

The question is...how do I get my laptop to interface with coaxial cable? (How do I plug it in?)

Beatles and Beach Boys are hardly sung. I have 100 Beatles songs and most have never been sung. Same with Elvis and Frank Sinatra. Hey, it depends on the venue. I have people singing Beach Boys and Frank Sinatra several times a week! (I love to sing "God Only Knows" and "Love's Been ...

Number one suggestion? DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION!!! I was born well before the digital age took hold, but I'm already at the point where I do NOT like having to wait more than 6 minutes to get what I want! As for more songs? More Todd Rundgren: * Couldn't I Just Tell You * Hope I'm Around * Hideaway * So...

I buy 10-15 new songs a week--online--from Tricerasoft. What's good about it is that you buy EXACTLY what you want, instead of buying a disc that usually has only two or three worthwhile files. So I tell my singers, look for what you want on Tricerasoft.com, let me know by email what it is, and I'll...

Adding a second monitor...

Hey all, I run my show from a laptop. Right now I have ONE external monitor--primarily for the singers to use. What I'd like to do is add a SECOND monitor, or more specifically, I'd like to be able to plug in to the TV screen/monitors that are available at various venues. Is there an easy way to add...
