kJams 1.0d49

kJams 1.0d49 is such a smart and interesting karaoke jukebox for Mac OS X. It's just like iTunes, except there's also karaoke lyrics on the screen (or on the TV) that follow along with the song, showing you what to sing next.

Kindof like "follow the bouncing ball". For a self contained (video iPod ready) example of what karaoke is like, just click here (3MB Movie). If you really want to be professional, it can also manage a list of singers and keep track of who is up next! Typically you buy special CDG discs to use for karaoke, which are just like regular CD's except they have graphics in them too, showing you karaoke song lyrics. You put the CDG into your mac and play it, or you can "rip" the songs (ie: import them from the CDG onto the mac's hard drive), then you can play them whenever you want even without the CDG. Supports burning of mix discs!

Made for Macintosh OS X! kJams was the first true karaoke (CDG) program made for Mac OS X. It is still the only professional karaoke software for mac. If you're a KJ running shows and you need a professional Macintosh solution, kJams is clearly the very best of what's available. Made with iPod and iPhone in mind! Want karaoke on your iPod or iPhone? kJams is for you! Export karaoke in QuickTime format for easy transfer to your iPod or iPhone.

Note: You must have a CD+G capable reader or writer for kJams to rip or burn.
