Hey All !! I found this site, and i couldn't resist joining! =] I don't have a karaoke machine and I don't want one. I have alot of instrumental versions of songs from Kelly Clarkson, Mariah Carey and P!nk... so what I want is to buy a program and a quality sounding mic so i can record songs/demos on my own computer! I'd like a program that i can go line by line and pick the best one i like and put it together. There are sooo many programs and mics out there, and i figure it would be better to ask you guys because you have programs and mics yourself and have first hand knowledge =] Please Help =] Thanks in advanced. P.S. one i find the riight program i can't wait to upload some songs here =] |

As for the program, not sure I use the best. I am currently with Siglos Karaoke, and I see a few features it is missing and a few faults with it. Mic I am pretty sure that I have what is the best for Karaoke, a Shure SM58. They should go for about $100. They sound good and are what many pro singers use, even major acts. You may find a decent mic in the $60 range but maybe not, a lot of the $30-40 range ones I do notice the difference. Lightweight, easy to break and lower quality sound. I have talked to some bands and their SM58s have lasted years of constant use. |

Another vote here for the SM58. They are the mic of choice for many touring bands because they sound good and are almost indestructable. I don't understand what you mean by going "Line by line." Putting the best what together? |

thanks for the welcome =] as for line by line, i mean verse by verse? like for instance kelly clarksons song... "because of you" Sample Lyric: "I will not make, the same mistake that you I will not let myself, cause my heart so much misery" ^^^ I would record "i will not make, the same mistake that you did.." maybe 3 times and pick the best version of me singing that! Like the same way they do it in a recording studio. I hope im explaining myself well  =]

Gotcha, what you need is a multi track hard disk recorder not a computer. It will be much easier to use and produce a much better recording and over all sound in the end than a computer. And while you're buying that order an SM58 too. |

You can do good recordings on the computer like stated with a multitrack program. I like the Mackie Tracktion. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/ ... sku=701816 Now your computer will need to be somewhat speedy/powerful for many of the multitrack programs & if it isn't the stand alone unit exweed mentioned is the other alternative. SM58 is a great mic for karaoke/live and about every other application, however as a recording mic, they aren't going to give the crispness as a decent large diaphram condensor mic like a Rhode NT1 http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/ ... sku=271593 going through an outboard pre-amp like the ART Tube MP Project Series http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/ ... sku=180643 You may also need a better sound card or interface so you can connect the mic. |
