SingOutStrong Karaoke Player

SingOutStrong Karaoke Player is a karaoke tool that features tutorials and approachable options for casual PC users. It displays lyrics while playing songs, so that you can sing along when organizing karaoke nights with your friends.

A bit of tinkering has to be made at startup to set up everything. You can select your microphone's input device and adjust the volume threshold and input sample (the higher, the better for audio analysis), as well as pick the vocals track and configure output preferences when it comes to the volume, key, tempo, drum, bass, guitar, and bells.

As far as the interface is concerned, the main window has a modern and simplistic look. It gives you the possibility to open audio tracks, UltraStar TXT files and SoS Playlists with the MP3, OGG, WAV, AIFF, MID, KAR, TXT and SOS extension. A sample song is provided in the installed directory to help you get familiarized with SingOutStrong Karaoke Player.

Basic audio player controls are available, enabling you to pause and stop tracks, as well as to play the previous or next song. During playback, you can switch to full screen mode and view the highlighted lyrics to sing along.

It's possible to create and save playlists (SOS format), as well as to look up songs by title, artist, UltraStar or MIDI/KAR. The audio input and output settings can be modified anytime. You can tweak the playback shift, time range, lines of lyrics shown, number of lines grouped by, along with the UI skin.

It didn't hog system resources, hang, crash or show error notifications in our tests. To sum it up, SingOutStrong Karaoke Player may not be particularly feature-rich, but it offers a clean and intuitive approach toward playing karaoke music.
