KARAOKE.EXE
The program is a TSR program that redirects
input from the microphone input line directly to the Speaker Out line. This will let you talk or sing
directly to your speakers.
To run the program, enter
KARAOKE ON
at the DOS prompt. This will make the program resident in
memory and will begin redirecting your microphone input to your speaker output. To turn it off, enter
KARAOKE OFF at the DOS prompt. This will turn off the KARAOKE program and remove it from
memory.
When you use
KARAOKE
with the
VOLTSR
program, you can adjust the microphone volume with the
following keys:
CTRL-ALT-PgUp
Raises the volume
CTRL-ALT-PdDn

CD-ROM Configuration
This chapter will help you set up your CD-ROM to work properly with the HOT-233/HOT-239.
The first section will explain how to set
up the CD-ROM using the
SNDINIT.EXE
configuration
program. The next section will discuss the connectors and proper CD-ROM interfacing to the
HOT-233/HOT-239.
The HOT-233/HOT-239 supports Sony, Panasonic, Mitsumi and IDE CD-ROM drives. You can configure
and set up these CD-ROM drives when you first set
up the HOT-233/HOT-239 using the
INSTALL.EXE
program, or later with the
SNDINIT.EXE
program.
Before proceeding, make sure you have successfully installed your CD-ROM drive hardware into your
computer system as well as the CD-ROM drive’s device driver and related software.
The following steps will help you set up your CD-ROM drive with the
SNDINIT.EXE
program. We will
be using a Mitsumi drive in these examples:
1.
Run SNDINIT.EXE and choose Configure.
2.
Select Customize for the CD-ROM Interface.
3.
We are using the Mitsumi CD-ROM for these steps. Choose Mitsumi for the CD-ROM model. The
configuration box for the Mitsumi CD-ROM will appear.
4.
At this point, you should have the CD-ROM Drive's hardware options which you have used to set
up your CD-ROM Drive while running the CD-ROM drive’s installation program.
5.
Select the I/O Port Address, IRQ, and DMA options that match with your CD-ROM drive’s op-
tions.
6.
Select
OK
to accept your settings. You will be notified that your CONFIG.SYS file will be up-
dated. Select
OK
and a line similar to the following will be added to your
CONFIG.SYS
file
DEVICE=C:\SOUND16\CDSETUP.SYS /T:M /P:340 /I:10 /D:X
This assumes you configured the CD-ROM to use I/O Port Address 340H, Interrupt 10 with DMA
disabled. The
"T:M"
stands for Mitsumi.
