I HAVE A KARAOKE MACHINE WITH MICS AND A TON OF CDG'S TO SING FROM! I JUST NEED TO KNOW WHAT SOFTWARE AND OTHER THINGS I WILL NEED TO BUY SO I CAN BE A PART OF THE SINGER'S SHOWCASE WITH ALL OF YOU GREAT SINGERS! PLEASE LET ME KNOW A.S.A.P. AS I WOULD LOVE TO GET THIS STUFF AND JOIN YOU REAL SOON!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HELP. LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU. KIM  :oh yeah:

No need to buy any recording software, just try the free one first. there is Audacity which you can get from  http://audacity.sourceforge.net/. learn how to use it.

To record you can either hook up your karaoke machine to you soundcard or you may want to do it all within audacity. To hook up your machine to the pc soundcard you may need some kind of cable that will fit at both end. Your sound card will have a 1/8" jack and your machine out may be rca, Get the correct cable.The other way is to rip you cdg to track one of audacity. Play it and record your vocal on track 2. Then add some efx to the vox , mix and mixdown as a wav file. Convert the file to mp3 and make sure the file size is below 3mb.

I'M NOT SURE IF THERE IS A SOUND CARD ON MY COMPUTER. WHAT DO I LOOK FOR TO FIND OUT?

You have a sound card, maybe an onboard soundcard. Look for those round holes with colors blue, pink, green, yellow. I think the pink one is for your mic in. and the green for the speaker.
