MIDI File vs. MIDI Karaoke File

Both file types are identical with the exception that a 'MIDI Karaoke' file includes embedded 'scrolling' lyrics by default and can also include a MIDI melody guide. Both file types will 'load and play' in any MIDI File player. Some 'MIDI Files' (sometimes referred to as 'SMF' or 'Standard MIDI File') also include a melody guide. MIDI song files are identified as 'MIDI File' or 'MIDI Karaoke' under the song title.

What is a MIDI Karaoke song file?

MIDI Karaoke files are backing tracks enjoyed by families, friends and singers. Karaoke has its origins in Japan and popular around the world. Karaoke songs were originally recorded with live bands but this has become very expensive. These days, Karaoke songs are derived from MIDI Files and available in many formats like MP3, CD and MIDI Karaoke. Professional musicians and singers can use a MIDI Karaoke or MP3 because they are identical to backing tracks.

A MIDI Karaoke File includes embedded lyrics. The lyrics scroll in time with the backing track. This cueing feature makes it easy for singers to know which part of the song is coming up next and accurately anticipate the start, verses, chorus and ending. Being a MIDI File, a MIDI Karaoke has all the advantages of changing key, tempo, arrangement, mute individual instruments and even instrument selection. These edits can be repeated infinite times and never affect sonic quality of the MIDI Karaoke File.

MIDI Karaoke File MP3 Playback Devices

All MP3 Karaoke songs will playback on any MP3 compatible device. That's almost everything these days including IOS and Android devices, computers, CD and Smart TV's via USB. MIDI Karaoke Files require a dedicated playback device to sound authentic. There are software/apps packages and stand alone devices that playback MIDI Karaoke, including the very popular MERISH series.
