Software Reviews and Criticism

  Sound quality is the best

  Sound quality is great. We have frequent parties at home in a dedicated room. Program is running on an old Windows 8.1 desktop computer using an old Onkyo home theater amplifier and two old Sony and two old Technics home speakers, with a Yamaha MG 06X mixer and two Shure microphones, one corded and one wireless. Sound is just as good as the system we use for dance music which is straight Yamaha using PX5 and PX 8 amplifiers and playing FLAC. Incredible. Program has good features for the way we use it. Running HDMI to a wall mounted television for the lyrics and a regular monitor to choose from the song selection. Love the ability to provide the name of the Karaoke singer before the song begins and to be able to maintain control using my mobile phone from across the room. Wish you had more classic Spanish language songs.

  You won’t regret it!!!

  This is the best self service karaoke platform by far.......and we’ve tried many! We were going to upgrade to the newest MagicSing streaming system with WiFi for $500 but decided to give this a try before dishing out so much money. We figured, worst case scenario, we’d have wasted $9 for a one month subscription (which is much better than $500). Boy are we glad we did!!!!! The versatility, 30,000+ songs, awesome features and user friendly platform exceeded every expectation I had. The monthly subscription fees are absolutely reasonable. Invest in a good powered speaker and mics if you’re an avid karaoke singer. If you’re even considering it, don’t waste any more time! Just download it and I promise you won’t regret it. I use it on our FireStick and AppleTV via AirPlay on my iPad & iPhone. Super easy set up!

  Well Designed App!

  I’m really impressed with this app. I’ve been playing with it for about 5 hours on and off and the ease of use, library/database and categorizations are on par “right on man! This is awesome!” I’ve run this from my Microsoft XR and iPad; seemless and without glitch. I noticed the new songs are much higher quality than what may be the older ones. Excellent eye for detail! Speaking of detail, I appreciate you adding lyrics to read while you are thumbing through the catalog so I don’t have to keep flipping my phone from horizontal to vertical and vice versa. I can’t think of one thing so far I wish it had except some artists I love to sing like Maggie Rogers, Kristy Lee or Indigo Girls but I’m betting that the music library will also grow. Nice job developers and team!

  Best Karaoke Software

  I tried my sister’s karaoke PC back in the 90’s and hated it! The song was Horse With No Name by America, a song I could play and sing with my guitar! Well this karaoke version of the song was all “cheesy” sounding and it was only one key, so I sounded horrible! I never karaoke’d from that day on....until recently at my other sisters karaoke party and I noticed the KJ was using the Karafun Software and he was changing the key for the different singers! I also noticed the music was as close to sounding just like the original songs! So I says to myself, I’ll rent it for a month and give it another try and “VOILA”! Changing the key to fit my voice made all the difference! Now I am being a “real” Filipino and enjoy “Singing Like The Stars!” LOL

  Well, it was fun…until last update.

  I hope one of the developers reads this. So many features were unfortunately taken away with the update. Not sure why because I don’t think any of it was doing anyone harm. I, like many others who use this app, am a musician and use it for practice purposes all the time and the most useful features were taken away. Examples: •Double tapping to go backwards or forward 10 seconds has been removed. Now I have to touch and glide my finger and it never quite lines up, so I can never get it back exactly where I want it to be. •Saving tempo and key changes has been removed. In all of my favorites and stored songs I had several key changes that could be saved so I don’t have to fiddle with it each time I line up my songs in the queue…UGH?! Why?! •Won’t start from the beginning after pressing play. At any given point during a song you could hit the back button and start from the beginning. That has been removed. Now I have to use my finger to glide it back to the beginning and it never starts on the first tee. It always skipped the first couple seconds. Very annoying and strange and again, why did you remove that?! Anyways, a bit heartbreaking that I updated but maybe they’ll change it back one day.
