Initializing Sing Mode for use with 3rd party karaoke programs
The default settings of Online Karaoke is mute on all the recording sources except Mic-in. On Chat Mode,
the Mic-in is a record source. You need to initialize the Mic-in settings when you want to enter an online
singing session using 3rd party karaoke programs.
1. On the Online Karaoke tab, click the Chat Mode option.
2. When it is your turn to sing, switch to Sing Mode, by clicking the Sing Mode option.
Muting your Chat Mode
The mute feature on Chat Mode prevents other parties from hearing you. However, this feature does not
mute your microphone out to your own speaker. If you do not wish to hear yourself, click the icon on
Sing Mode as well.
