ABSTRACT:
In a karaoke apparatus, a memory device stores song data containing at least accompaniment information representative of a karaoke accompaniment of a desired song and vocal information representative of a model singing voice of the song performed by a model singer. A producing device processes the stored accompaniment information to produce the karaoke accompaniment. An input device collects an actual singing voice performed in parallel to the karaoke accompaniment by a karaoke player. A reading device reads out the vocal information from the memory device in parallel to the karaoke accompaniment. A modifying device modifies at least a volume and a pitch of the model singing voice represented by the read vocal information according to an actual volume and an actual pitch of the collected actual singing voice. An output device sounds the modified model singing voice in place of the collected actual singing voice and in parallel to the karaoke accompaniment.
