Is this similar to "Singing for Dummies" CD? If not, how is it different?

Hi David, Singing for Dummies and eMedia Singing Method draw from the same body of instructional content, but Singing for Dummies contains about half the lessons present in eMedia Singing Method. eMedia Singing Method also includes the Performance Evaluation feature, which will listen to you sing the whole song, give you specific feedback on mistakes, and give you an overall score. This feature is not present in Singing for Dummies. Both Singing for Dummies and eMedia Singing Method include the Interactive Feedback feature, which tells you whether you're in tune, too high or too low in pitch. If you have any questions about eMedia Music software, please contact us at http://www.emediamusic.com/contact/contact_cs.html. Thanks, Sam from eMedia Music Customer Service

It comes with a small song book with a handful of songs. Good to just start learning.

It comes with one sing-along CD-G disk. It has nursery rhyme songs, great for little children. You can buy additional CD-G disk.

Yes it is different. The connection is with a USB. I have successfully recorded 12 songs, first from 33rpm records to a cassette tape then from cassette to a cd disc. I then was able to play it on my cd player and it sounds great. The unit I bought looks cheap but it works. I have 12 more songs ready put on a cd. I tried the jack direct to the computer with no luck. Use INGburn free download. How to write an Audio CD and hoe to write an image file to disc. Use this with Audacity softwares latest version.

Hi. I don't use the cartridges at all, although I believe they do have songs on them. You have many sound choices and I generally choose piano chords. I sing with children with this instrument, in pre-schools. You can choose the chords and it is pretty easy, although I still need a piece of paper to tell me what to play. You can also just have fun with chords and strumming. I like it a lot! Good luck!!!

I think that they are the same thing. I ordered the music maker lap harp and have been very happy with it. It works great for kids or older people who are looking to learn a simple instrument.

Can you use any cd or does it have to be a karaoke cd.. meaning, can I use any reg song cd I buy or music I bought from ITunes?

it is harmony to YOUR voice, if you are male, so is the harmony. You can select different voices and genders for your harmonies, or make it double of your voice with no harmonies above or below your natural voice. I use mine to get awesome backing vocals for songs by the Eagles, Marshall Tucker Band, and even Poison. the combinations are almost countless with 8 harmony patches, 8 voicings, and 4 gender selections. Hope this helps, after 20 minutes I was hooked up, jamming out some tunes, and harmonizing...sweet

It is a cd for practice, but my kids have never used it through the first two levels.

As far as I know there i no one who services this type of equipment. My CDs stopped playing and after paying $100 to have someone take a look at it, I was told it could not be serviced and the Singing Machine Company s totally useless. Sorry for your troubles as I know the machine was not cheap. Good luck!

It does not work like the ones at the bar. I have not done it yet. What you do is put in the CD and record which songs you want and it will hold up to so many. It remembers the songs you program. Then you can play the songs you have picked and programed. Its not like at the bar where you look at all the CDs and then pick which songs you want. You only get to choose from what is programed into the Juke Box

Hi Linnie, Thanks for the question. It's a great little machine. I bought it for my grandson who was one and a half. You can put your own CD's in it and it will also play CD-R's. The microphones are not detachable, so you'll have to be mindful of that. Having said that, we have all had hours of enjoyment playing with it. My grandson is now 2 and plays with it every day. He loves to push the buttons mostly to start stop and open!! And when he's not singing along he's dancing. Highly recommend it! Have a great day! Bob

1. If you download karaoke songs from itunes onto your ipod and then plug it into this system, do the lyrics appear on the screen? I would be wary of CD+G from iTunes, for the simple fact that Karaoke music is comprised of two separate files. IF and only IF you download the music and the data file which is required from iTunes as one (and I doubt it), then you should have no problem. Also, in order to make a CD+G disc to use in the device, you need Karaoke Software like Karaoke Studio which is capable of making discs from the two files. I think most complaints that you'll read where people are saying the lyrics are not showing up are people who are unaware of Karaoke files actually are and what's required. When they burn a disc and press play, the music comes on and the lyrics don't because you have to use specific software. Karaoke is an investment for sure and the Music +G is never cheap. 2. Do all karaoke cds work on this system, and do the lyrics always show up on the screen as well? I've purchased several Karaoke compilations from Amazon and they've all worked so far without problem. As anyone who knows Karaoke will say, it's best to try and master three or four songs and really develop your ability. If you really want to make those songs the way you want it, like adjusting the lyrics as they're sometimes wrong or inserting background pictures, Karaoke software is the next step.

Despite if they are the same, The only thing I guess that academic bundle doesn't give is this (Audio editing and manipulation including pitch correction, pitch shifting, harmonization, time-stretching, beat-detection & slicing, audio warping and standard audio manipulation) &lt;--- that is what the Image Line Softwate Bundel gives you besides the academic one. As long as that description shows :)

Most definitely! I bought this for my son for Christmas and he's got several cds now. The equipment you use makes the difference between good quality and not. U can look him up on Facebook or SoundCloud and hear the quality of music he has made. Look under "YaBoiKavan". Some of his stuff is even on mp3 download apps. See what you can do with this software for yourself! Good luck!

That's a good idea! I don't think I asked Amazon for the refund; but I did ask T-Tap and they told me what they were going to do if I askedfor a refund, and they did it! I ended up just giving my CD away to someone who wanted it. I'd suggest that you start with the cheaper one to see how you like it. You can get a good workout in 15 minutes with her; the only problem is, you don't have her there to correct your form if you're not doing it correctly. Form is so important, you know.

Yes, you can use it alone with a regular CD and just sing-along. A side note, the microphone is the controller and that is confusing to our daughter who accidentally pushes the buttons all the time (she is six) I would say it is for an older age group. But it is a cool little machine :)
