I was just wondering, at KTV places, what do they use for the system? Not the karaoke machines but the songs/video database. Is it possible to get one to use at home?

Or is there anyway to simulate it on a PC?

Random, yeah ahaha Any info would be great.

Korean usually uses the Ziller system.

Filipinos use this thing called "Magic Mic"

Don't know about others and about one for the PC.

What you can do is go to youtube. They usually have karaoke versions of songs on there. I know I've found a few for Asian songs.

My Filipino friend uses Magic Mic.
It's really good.

Backgrounds are kinda cheesy though

My mum and sis each have a magic mic and an extra wireless mic addon thingy. Haha, I gotta agree on the cheesy backgrounds, though I'm pretty sure we can use our own backgrounds

I have no idea,
But MAGIC MIC. Was the first thing that popped up in my head when i saw the Karaoke System topic. XD
Use it all the time. Very very portable.
I have to agree Cheesey backgrounds. but these things actually grade you on how well you sing.
Depending on what mode you put it in.
I never knew I was singing on Star Singer mode. XD there is even Professional , and amateur.
I do not thing that was helpful at all. ^^ Sorry.

i know for korean ones(ziller) there is a home based system and an business based system.... business one costs more but it has like its own amp and better speakrs. plus for a cost monthly u can download new songs because the thing connects to the internet.... the home one only gets updated couple times a month and you need to buy the upgrades

[blurgal35]

i would like to have internet/ home noraebangss!!!
how to sign up for the ziller one? can a non-korean register for that program?~

[A m a r a n t h]

i would just buy a karaoke player that comes with songs =/

for ziller, its like 1000 bucks for the system though isn't it?
and idk about like subscribing for updating songs and blah

I've been looking stuff up and recently discovered HTPCs (Home Theater PCs). Would there be any way of converting a normal PC into a basic HTPC. Cause I have an extra computer lying around xD
