Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Singing Machine's SMG-320 karaoke system offers dual cassette decks (play/record), a CD+Graphics-capable CD player, and two microphone inputs so you can share vocal duties with a friend or a very brave stranger. Hook the system up to your existing television, VCR, or camcorder, and watch the lyrics from your karaoke discs scroll across your TV or monitor in time with the music (on compatible CD+G CDs, one of which is included). With a built-in speaker and 20 watts per channel x 2, the whole block will hear your singing if you want it to.

The two mic inputs have individual level controls, and the system offers a digital echo effect for adding a little studio sheen to the proceedings. You get system expandability courtesy of auxiliary audio inputs/outputs. An onscreen display, accessible from the full-function remote control.

Automatic voice control lets you replace the original singer's voice with your own voice when any prerecorded karaoke disc or tape is played, while the ever-handy balance control lets you adjust the ratio between the prerecorded singer's voice and the music if you use a karaoke tape or disc.

The digital key control feature lets you to adjust the pitch level of the pre-recorded music and match your own vocal key that you feel comfortable singing along with. Sound-field control offers digital reverberation simulations titled Church, Concert, Disco, and Stadium, broadening the range of effects to apply to your singing.

What's in the Box
Karaoke unit, an audio/video interconnect, one dynamic microphone, a full-function remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, and a sampler CD+G disc with 16 tracks.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good marks for the feature laden SMG320, November 25, 2000

The Good: The SMG320 supports a satellite speaker which doubles the power of the unit and creates a true stereo sound. The digital key control and echo system are clean and useful. The remote control is very handy and controls most karaoke and CD features (not the cassettes however). It's a good value and it's hard to find a comparable unit in the same price. Line out on rear allows you to hook it up to a larger sound system.

The bad: Not for the very young. It's too heavy and too complicated for children to use (Singing Machine says it's a semi-pro model) Volume control on unit is tricky to use. Not all remote functions are duplicated on the front panel.

In Summary: This is a pretty good karaoke for the family or small groups. I like the overall mix and sound quality of the unit as well as the styling of the cabinet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Professional sound for the amateur, October 10, 2001

GREAT Machine! After researching the consumer karaoke market for a few months, I decided on The Singing Machine. I'm thrilled with the machine- well worth the money. I sing at nursing homes and adult care centers and participate in local karaoke competitions. The automatic voice cancel feature is great for learning new music. The remote control makes it so easy to switch tracks without having to walk back to the machine.

In larger rooms, I hook up the Singing Machine to the PA system using the Auxiliary Out connection. Its so easy for me to operate. I had one question when I first got my Singing Machine home and the customer service people were friendly and knowledgeable.

We bought this for our 11 year old daughter for christmas. The microphone is real not some cheesy plastic thing but the unit itself is not well made. The two cassette player doors don't align just right and feel like they could break at any moment. The CD that came with it was scratched and had ... songs on it. The sound quality was fair but not worth the price. I am wondering if the STVG700 model with the monitor built in is any better? My husband and I debated over the SMG320 and the STVG700. I just can't help but wonder if we made the wrong choice or if both units are poor quality.
