Page "Karaoke" Paragraph 41

In addition to CD + G and software-based karaoke, microphone-based karaoke players enjoy popularity mainly in North America and some Asian countries such as the Philippines.

Microphone-based karaoke players only need to be connected to a TV — and in some cases to a power outlet ; in other cases they run on batteries.

These devices often support advanced features, such as pitch correction and special sound effects.

Some companies offer karaoke content for paid download to extend the song library in microphone-based karaoke systems.
