Karaoke Creators
Karaoke Sound Tools software contain a vocal remover, but please remember that it is not a magic tool -- it might not work for some songs.
While we did our best to convert graphics in CD+G songs to text, sometimes it is not possible. It may be because of the font which
is difficult for a computer software to recognize or by a non-standard way of displaying text. In such cases we suggest to import lyrics
from a text file and perform manual synchronization.
