I don't know what you call it, but they have like 3 little screens so you can preview your stuff and set it up and then go...

Know what I'm talking about?

Anyone use one or have any ideas?

Connected to what? A CDG player with a USB connection for MP3 memory sticks? A laptop using a hosting program? A video disc player for between song clips? As Spock would say: " Insufficient Data". BTW- I think you're referring to a "doohickey"......
 
video outs from your player, to a unit that is like 3 or 4 rack spaces with little TV monitors so you can cue up your cdg's.... then one output to your TV monitor for the singers...


does that help explain the gizmowhat'sitdeal? :)

If I'm reading you right, and it comes from the PLAYER vid out, Then this is a small monitor showing what MP3s are available to the player's USB port ( I'm guessing a V2GO or Pioneer- not a lot of players have this option) via memory stick, and is used to cue those songs- The "whatchamacallit" If this is the case, I've either seen it as an add on for the player from the mfr., or as a small LCD screen that the host bought for that purpose (The V2GO doesn't come with a reference monitor). If that's what you mean, I don't of any special name for it. These same monitors may be used for all the purposes that I mentioned. I have never seen a configuration such as you've described though. Could it have been home made, or do you know the mfr.?
 
We use the Numark one... the one we have has a swivel so you can adjust it... it also has two inputs per screen and two outs for each one. You can use it as a ghetto mixer. :)

Expensive yes. Worth it yes.

For Karaoke? Um.... why? (Curious)

....if one were inclined to run karaoke music off of a computer, which I may do at small house partes, but NEVER at a show or event..:sqerr:


JUST MY OPINION! NO hijack intended!
 
The karaoke player I bought in Vegas is like a dual CD player and has two decks and two out puts,,, so while one is playing I can cue the other up,,,, it's sometimes nice to see the title page just to make sure it is the right song! :)

One of many good uses. What does this thing sell for, approx. ? The triple monitor, Imean.
