Enjoying Karaoke
Using Karaoke
You can enjoy karaoke (singing along with a 
disc) by setting this player to karaoke mode. 
You can connect a microphone (not supplied) 
to the player.
Setting the player to karaoke 
mode
The player enters karaoke mode when a 
microphone is plugged into the MIC 
connector.
The player exits from karaoke mode when 
you disconnect the microphone from 
connector.
You may also turn the karaoke mode on and 
off by selecting “KARAOKE MODE” in the 
Control Menu display using 
X/x, and then 
pressing ENTER. For details about the 
Control Menu operations, see “Guide to the 
Control Menu Display (Magic Pad)” on 
page 11.
When you turn the karaoke mode on with 
DVDs or Super VCDs, karaoke play is 
performed with the audio channel you 
selected using the 
 (audio) button 
(page 43). With CDs or VIDEO CDs, the 
Audio setting automatically changes to “1/L” 
so that only the accompaniment is played 
when you turn the karaoke mode on. If the 
vocal audio is heard with some discs, select 
the audio channel for karaoke play using the 
 (audio) button (page 43).
Note
When you set the player to the karaoke mode, you 
cannot use the Fast Play or Slow Play function 
(page 23).

LEVEL control to adjust the

the Control Menu display.

Hint
If howling occurs:

microphone is connected to the MIC connector by 
setting “KARAOKE MODE” to “OFF” in the 
Control Menu display.
