Would this be good for my granddaughter who likes to sing, I thought she could record herself and play back. Is this what I need?

For singing, I wouldn't recommend this for someone who would just be starting. If she knows her way around sound equipment and software then I'd definitely recommend this or something of equal quality for the price. The microphone itself can only interface the computer through the mixer and then the USB hookup. This provides better quality than some other microphones when configured properly, but it's also more sensitive and will require a stand, and pop filter, which are not included in the set. I spent no more than $150 on this and the other equipment I bought for the purpose of live-streaming on the internet. Overall I'm highly satisfied with the use and quality i've gotten out of behringer products, but for your purposes I'm unsure of wether this is the best option.

No you cannot input an ipod on this player, I haven't looked into ipod's and karaoke. The concept sounds like a good idea and I'm sure it has been done. I own this karaoke player and it will record singing to an sd card or a flash drive. I own several Karaoke CD+G's and I record them to flash drives. I've never recorded my own singing LOL

Not totally sure. I know my kids have recorded a long message, but as far as recording a whole song - I'm assuming not. Sorry I'm not much help.

I did not try to record music but it did very well with voices. We were able to recognize who the voice belonged to. We also did a RR crossing sound from a recording on the internet. It did the job okay but was not loud enough to hear well from inside a pocket on the Halloween costume. Note that the recording length is very short. You will not likely get a whole song. I was satisfied with the money I spent on them and what I wanted them for.

This is a great recorder, and it record in high quality... I think if you just want to record conversations, you could probably find a simpler recorder. I use that all the time as musician, because I can have a real notion of how I played listen to the recording that this thing make. Yes, if you just want record conversations, it is better to find a simpler recorder... :)

It is OK for quick voice captures, much more suited for line in recording or off the built-in radio. You do need to add your own SD card of choice in order to record anything. There are 3 bit rate settings, it also has full time auto level control in record mode on Mic or line. Sound quality is really very good all the way around.

Yes it's pretty good for any type of recording. Once you use it professional. It's a good pretty!!

you can use it for a microphone and just sing in it if that is what your talking about without music, thats what my son does and plays music off another system

It records your voice and repeats it back in a high pitched voice. So if you spoke in Spanish, it would repeat it. My daughter sings, and makes up words, whispers, screams, and it does it all.

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

Sort of...the sing stand comes with an App from RedKaroake. That particular App records while you're singing, using our iPad (that's the tablet we have, not sure how it works with other tablets). It saves the video so you can play it again and again. Other than that App, we have not tried to record ourselves.

Yes - the only bad thing is you can't sing your own tune - your child is stuck singing the songs that are programmed on the machine. My kids like it a lot though!

I've been using my karaoke machine to sing old standards and Christmas carols at an assisted living facility, and it's been working out nicely. I connect it to the big screen TV and the house stereo. (I want to mention that the voice of the one singing is projected through the stereo, but the music from the karaoke CD's isn't. The karaoke machine itself projects the music pretty well though. ) As long as your 5 year old can read lyrics or has the songs memorized, you can get children's karaoke CD's and have a great sing along.

Yes! We got this for our kids and our whole family enjoys it. We bought an extra microphone as there are two places for them to be plugged in and then we sing "duets".

You can record voices and music but there is a lot of setting I need something easier to work like just press record I sent it back too many setting

I have plugged in a guitar and vocal mic to get that old 1950's reverb effect and it worked quite nicely. I also sang vocal notes into it trying out various settings and found it produces numerous effects. I do find that it seems more reponsive to guitar than voice, but then I've only been using it for a week. I strongly suggest, however, that your daughter spend more time practicing voice without the unit than with...this toy is tons of fun, but might aid in developing some bad vocal habits. I find I could easily use it as a crutch to aid lazy singing (reverb can make you think you're sounding better than you are). I find that when I use it, I tend to "slide into" my notes, rather than attacking them accurately. But other than that, I have found this little blue Behringer to be an excellent value for the money.
