3Load a disc with the music you want to use.

4Play the title, chapter or track and

adjust the volume of the audio playback.

•For more information on loading a disc and playing back a title, chapter or track, refer to the section Playing discs on page 26.

•Adjust the volume on the TV or compo- nent that audio connections are made to. VOLUME on the front panel controls only the level of the microphone(s).

5When the music starts, turn VOLUME clockwise while speaking or singing into the microphone to adjust the vocal volume to an appropriate level.

6Turn ECHO clockwise to adjust the amount of echo effect that you want added to the vocals.

The amount of echo effect needed may differ for different styles of music and for different preferences.

7Adjusting the music to suit your voice Use the key control on the remote control to match the backing music to your vocal range. (See page 17).

• Press	(HIGH) repeatedly to raise the
pitch of the backing music.
• Press	(LOW) repeatedly to lower the

pitch of the backing music.

•You can adjust the HIGH tone in a range of five steps and the LOW tone in a range of five steps.

When “howling” occurs

If sound from the speakers is picked up by a mic and output again through the speakers, the result is a screeching sound known as “howling”.

To eliminate howling:

•Point the mic away from the speakers.

•Move the mic away from the speakers.

•Turn VOLUME counterclockwise to lower the volume level.

•Turn ECHO counterclockwise to lower the echo effect.

•Reduce the volume when plugging in the microphone to prevent feedback.
