karaoke computer program?

Thunder said:
Audio Grabber works with any CD reader that is capable of reading CDG I think you will find that is the case on all of the programs used to rip CDG if the reader doesn't read CDG the program can't rip them. With Audio Grabber I have used Plextor, HP, Sony and Hatachi all have worked fine without issues with the exception of damaged disc.

That's true about Audiograbber the drive does need to be able to at least read CDG's.

Power CDG Burner however is a little less discriminating and works with almost any drive whether it states it can read CDGs or not. Also... it has been my experience that the graphics ripped with Power CDG Burner are 99.9% of the time better than those ripped by any other program.... meaning almost zero graphical errors.

I have discs that ripped horribly with other programs... sure the audio was fine but the graphics (and really the most important part of the process) contained errors little glitches some so bad that the lyrics would become un-readable.... not so with Power CDG Burner.... every track baring ones comming from damaged or older discs ripped the graphic with near zero errors if any at all.

I rip with a $20 Lite-On drive from Wal-Mart and no where in the manufactures literature states that it is suppose to read CDGs. Not only that but I can write discs with Power CDG Burner from the files I create that are as good as the original discs they came from and play in any CDG player.

Rob, do you mead this works even for burners not originally set up for CDG?

I guess what I'm asking is that if you pick up a standard Dell or such laptop, the software will allow you to rip CDG to a standard burner?

In most cases yes... I've only found one drive that doesn't seem to work with any program... and that one is on my laptop made by Mitsumi (sp?)

I have tested it on some of the new Dell Laptops and it works on those.... it works on the older Dell we have at the hotel....

As I said in the above post almost any drive will work with Power CDG Burner... but, obviously I haven't test every single model ever produced so there may be at least a handfull that don't work. ;)
 
Joker I am not say you are wrong about Power Karaoke doing a better job because i have never used it.

But you are wrong about the program being able to use any CDReader to rip Karaoke files althought today the vast majority will do so anyway but right on the PowerKaraoke site it tells you that if the program doesn't work that you may not have a CDG capable machine.

I have a list of those that will work but it numbers about 1800 so I think it would be foolish to post it. I will post a short list of the LiteOn drives that are capable of reading CDG. Which BTW the majority are actually made by Sanyo.

I understand that their site like all other sites that sell or have free versions of software that rips CDGs all have a disclaimer that says not all drives will work....

I understand the love affair you guys have with Audiograbber but honestly there are programs that are better.... and Power CDG Burner for ripping AND burning CDGs is one of those programs.

What I am saying is a wider range of drives work with power CDG Burner over other rippers.... but that wasn't the point.

The point was in my experience Power CDG Burner does a superior job of ripping cdg's over all of the most popular rippers. Becuase of this fact I willingly re-ripped my entire collection rather than going through it to find all the music that was glitchy... I can not even stand a minute graphical error in my mp3+g the g part of it is equally as important as the mp3 part. I'm just anal that way.

I've tried them all from Audiograbber to Z and hands down Power CDG Burner has beat them all for ease of use to features and most importantly the quality of the output files. And that is what my point was.
 
You get glitches from the software?

I never get glitches, from the software program, I may get them from dirty or bad disc or a dirty laser on the reader but not from audio grabber itself!

News Flash!!!! Even with brand new discs that have never even seen a CDG player when ripped with Audiograbber can have graphical glitches. But, when ripped on the exact same equipment using Power CDG Burner those graphical problems are either non-existent or greatly reduced.

I don't know why this is so hard to understand or grasp. Audiograbber is good at grabbing Audio but when it comes to the graphics on CDGs it's hit or miss, period.

My definition of a bad rip is any graphical artifacts left behind a swipe no matter how minute they may seem.

My definition of a good rip is that you should not be able to tell the difference between the disc played in a player and the file played on a computer.
 
Rob on this one Im going to side with Steve. He is claiming no glitches. You are claiming almost no glitches with autokdj. Sounds like something is going wrong for you since Steve is claiming none and I have also experienced the same in the past with Grabber for the G discs. At times it seems cause you use it there is nothing better. Just saying that its like your free KJ program, there are many others which work well.

Wiz, so how many Karaoke or DJ gigs have you done to date now? You dont own Sax and dotties?
 
Rob,

Do me a favor rip Star Disc #144 particularly the song Brand New Girlfriend by Steve Holly for me I have the disc but for some reason Audio Grabber, CDRwin and Tricersoft simply couldn't rip that song without some major grapic errors. I even exchanged the disc for another one and still had the same problem!

If you don't have the disc I will be glad to send it too you for the rip!
 
Major graphics errors but the music isn't bad so i cut a Lame duck version.

I love a challenge... (don't read any sarcasim into that)... I have it and will try to post it here.... I just played it and no Jon it has nothing to do with AutOKdj... simply put Audiograbber doesn't always get a good rip....

This file was in fact ripped from a very used Star Disc 144... there are surface scratches all over it...

It looks like I'll have to email it to ya....

Didn't read it as such, didn't post it as such either! I really wanted the Star disc 144 to work it just didn't. I don't know if it was a bad batch of disc or what but neither of the ones I bought worked right even as CD disc in any player they have ever been tried in. That was the deciding factor for me to switch all my country purchases to POP HITS MONTHLY.
 
JoeChartreuse said:
Steve, I couldn't find a decent version of this anywhere. How is the Star Disc?
Click to expand...

It's ok.... not nearly as good as the original artist version.... I have seen it on the Pop Hits Monthly disc and thought it was better.... for some reason I think I've seen the Chartbuster version but that was awhile ago so I don't quite remember what I thought of it.
 
Thunder: How was that file? I'm still a little curious since you said you've gone through a couple of new discs and none have ripped or played right.... I wonder if I can rip it.

The file is great in fact as you said perfect. I will be glad to mail you the disc for you to try!

The music on the Star disc is so much closer to the original song than THM or CB (and CB generally gets country songs closer than anyone else) which is why I wanted it to work. As I said I had used the music from the Star Disc to produce my own Lame Duck label version of the song. I generally have POP, Country and Urban from PHM and don't remember ever getting that song from PHM but I did get it from THM in my number 2 system and frankly it doesn't even come close.

See I knew there were other versions of the song but honestly it has been so long since I'd heard any of them I couldn't give any sort of opinion one way or the other.

PM on it's way.
 
I used MTU's Hoster for the past 4 years, just switched to CompuHost. Best move I ever made, I am so happy with it, I just bought my second license.

Customer support is excellent, and the software is incredibly stable and easy to use.
 
since i'm new here, where do ya'll get karaoke from? I see some still use disks, dunno y? Computer is the way to go. I myself got hooked on mIRC, 'karaokeinfo.com'. One time low fee and able to get any karaoke songs that are out. Support is awesome too. Just wondering what else is out there via computer.

Completely illegal.... file sharing no matter if you pay some small fee to a site owner or not is illegal on any level.... delete all files you have downloaded illegally and replace them.

Reading this kind of thing makes me sick!!!
