With Merish 3 you can write or edit the Karaoke lyrics of a 
song. The lyrics can be synced with the music line by line. 
IMPORTANT: in this case the highlighting is not syllable by 
syllable but rather line by line. 
The lyrics must be written on a PC in .TXT format and the 
lines must be a maximum of 40 characters in length. Ideally, 
write each line of the verse on a separate line, following the 
metric division of the song. Once you have finished writing 
the lyrics save the file in .TXT format on a USB drive so that 
you  can  transfer  it  to  Merish  3.  Now  let’s  look  at  how  to 
upload the musical section.

1.  Select  the  song  on  which  you  want  to  insert  the  lyrics 
and upload it to the Merish 3 internal memory.

2.  Press Edit > Edit Lyrics to open the lyrics write page.

3.  Now press the “import TXT” key.

4.  The lyrics will be uploaded to Merish 3 and can now be 
synchronised.

5.  Press PLAY and then press the REC key whenever you 
want to synchronise a line of the lyrics. 
If  you  want  to  correct  the  lyrics  simply  touch  the  line  in 
question  and  the  Keyboard  will  appear  on  the  screen  for 
editing purposes.

To  move  the  sync  point  simply  touch  the  Position  Box 
associated with the line of lyrics you want to move and then 
turn the Alpha Dial.

WRITING LYRICS AND MARKERS

Merish  3  makes  widespread  use  of  Meta  Events  such  as 
Markers, Full Title, Artist, and Musical genre. 
Merish  3  also  assures  perfect  management  of  songs  that 
do  not  contain  meta  events  and  is  capable  of  finding  the 
required files rapidly using the Search function, using either 
just the filename or Song title as search keys.

Merish  3  can  write  any  Meta  Event  into  the  files.  From 
the Song Info window: access meta data by touching the 

  or 

  icon  in  the  left-hand  column  of  the 

“Songs” window. In this window, all the Meta events in the 
window can be written to a song:
