A lot of th Karaoke CDs on Amazon do not say they are CD+G......will they work in this Karaoke system? Also, some people recommended replacing the mics.....do you recommend replacing the mics?

This machine read CD+Gs so you need to have spanish karaoke CDGs. It also have an iPod dock for your ipod.

The Electrohome has standard RCA connectors. One can output to audio or video using them. You would connect your iPad to a TV, or stereo any other audio or video player, or just use it alone as another audio source with the YouTube. The Karaoke unit only outputs to other sources by using RCA cables. You could use the iPad to view lyrics if the size of the connector RCA video cable is the same diameter, and allows for the standard RCA connector, and the iPad viewing screen also allows for an external video input, which the Electrohome Karaoke would be. Then you could use your iPad as a video screen for the CD lyrics.

No, ITunes will not label the tracks for you. But it doesn't take all that much time to type in the info on your own. I do it all the time because my ITunes store will not connect or let me log in. Yes, a nuisance, but worth it to have my CD's on my IPOD.

No but you can load songs from your Ipod onto the GB-10 memory card - very easy - takes just a minute or so.You can also swap out memory cards and have endless space for music.The GB-10 is the best thing I've found for a portable practice machine and it's quite easy on batteries too - or you can use a wall wart.Another great feature is that the GB-10 can play MP3 files as well as standard 16 bit wav files.

The screen doesn't work on mine either. It's a piece of junk imo. We hooked it up to the tv to see the lyrics. The kids enjoy it but we could have gotten a cheaper one

The 3-mode text display shows the CD's title, the artists name and the title of the track. http://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/hifi-systems/mcr-232/?mode=model I tried with an iPod via usb and it just shows the track number. Don't know what it displays when an iPod is in the dock, but I'd assume it just displays the track number as well.

Thank you for your advice. That's something they don't list in the instructions. I went and got one and love it. I suppose I still have to keep it in "manual" and not in "auto sync" ? Or does it matter as long as I keep it in the iTunes playlist?

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/

It connects to your computer and will access you tube karaoke songs there.. so you can sing along to almost any song you can think of.. the speakers are good so when I am not using it I keep it connected to use for everything.. the machine itself does not display the words.. just your monitor..

The machine does not display words. But they are displayed on the iPad we hook it up to for the music. We use the app they recommend with the machine.

Bernadette, I don't have this particular item, but own TC Electronics VoiceLive Touch Vocal Effects Processor and plug my iphone/ipod into it, connect to an amp, connect the TC Electronics Vocal Microphone MP-75 Dynamic Microphone, Super-Cardiod to it and sing along with my own tunes. My friends and I have a blast with the different voice settings. I am no pro by any means, this was all in the name of having fun. Have not tried connecting my computer yet, to try and access my itunes account. Initially, I was looking for something for my computer, but stumbled onto this and have no regrets.

Hi - the microphone will allow you to sing your own songs if you don't press the song button and the unit is on. Good luck!

Can you hook an ipod up to this and see the words on the screen of the karaoke machine?

Yes you can use the chip on this karaoke system. I bought the same system this past February and I love it. There's 5 chip you can put in this karaoke.

That should not happen if you have the cables in the correct holes. You must have inserted the cables in the wrong holes. If you insert the cables in the correct connection, your karaoke will work. Just keep trying.

It does not play Karaokes. All this machine does is to administer your audio, so if you plan on BUILDING your karaoke system then this machine is perfect for you. When I say administer I mean that you can enter audio signals (for example from the microphone and from the DVD player) and then you can output the mixed signals (for example to a speaker system). I used this to build my own karaoke, but I also had to buy outside speakers (for my patio), an amplifier, a few different types of wire and connectors, and I use my iPad + Apple TV to provide the music (there are so many karaoke songs in YouTube). If you are interested let me know and I can help you out
