Notes
• With some songs, vocals may not be canceled when
you select “KARAOKE PON”.
• The instrumental sound may be reduced as well as
the singer’s voice when the sound is recorded in
monaural.
• The singer’s voice may not be reduced when:
– only a few instruments are playing.
– a duet is being played.
– the source has strong echoes or chorus.
– the singer’s voice deviates from the center.
– the voice on the source is singing in high soprano
or tenor.
• Keep microphone away from the speakers and adjust
its volume to avoid acoustic feedback (howling) and
distortion.
• The key can be adjusted only when the function is set
to CD.
• The microphone volume and microphone echo turn
off (“MIC OFF” and “ECHO OFF”) when the
function is changed.

microphone only, you can do so by selecting the CD
function and not playing a disc.

distortion of the recorded sound signal (Auto Level
