Karaoke operation

All you need to enjoy karaoke with the TX-SE550 is a dynamic microphone. The karaoke function can also cancel the vocals on your favorite songs. The amount of cancellation depends on the source material. Vocal cancellation is not possible with mono sources, and also cannot be used when the MULTI-CH INPUT but- ton is pressed.

Before using the Karaoke function:

Turn down the MASTER VOLUME, MIC LEVEL, and ECHO LEVEL controls.

1.Connect one or two dynamic microphones to the MIC 1 and (or) MIC 2 jacks.

If you are connecting two microphones, use those with the same specifications.

2.Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to use for karaoke.

3.Use the SPEAKERS A and SPEAKERS B buttons to select a speaker system.

4.Set the MASTER VOLUME control to a suitable level.

5.Press the KARAOKE button.

The KARAOKE indicator lights up and “KARAOKE” appears on the display, indicating that the karaoke function is available.

6.Press the VOCAL CANCEL button to select the desired mode.

Each press of the button changes the display in the following order:

V CANCEL

MPX L ch

MPX R ch

 

OFF

 

7.To add HALL surround effects, press the SURROUND MODE button. (SPEAKER A only)

You cannot use Dolby Pro Logic and Dolby Digital for the Karaoke function.

You cannot use the Karaoke function while Dolby Digital signal is being input from a digital source.

8.To adjust the pitch of the music in semitone steps (–6 ~ +6), press the KEY CONTROL button on the main unit or on the remote controller.

The or indicator lights up when the pitch has been changed.

If you have not used the KEY CONTROL buttons, lights up.

9.Adjust the ECHO LEVEL and MIC LEVEL controls to the desired levels.

The ECHO LEVEL control determines the amount of echo applied to your voice.

10.Use the MASTER VOLUME control to adjust the overall volume level.

When you finish using the Karaoke function, or to cancel the function, press and hold down the KARAOKE button.

The KARAOKE indicator goes off. The karaoke function is can- celed.

Notes:

When using the karaoke function, keep microphones away from the speakers to prevent howling feedback.

Disconnect the microphones or turn down the MIC LEVEL when you finish using the Karaoke function.

Keep the karaoke volume down at night. Be considerate of your neighbors.
