Karaoke Lyrics

[arlo]

The new app versions released in November 2017 add functions to build your own karaoke style lyrics display.

The first step is easy: when viewing lyrics in the set list view, double-click the left third of a line of lyrics, and it will become highlighted and jump to the middle of the screen.

The next step is to automate a series of those highlights; to do that, you'll need to record an automation track. Start recording, then start your backing track or tempo (you'll need to play to a consistent source for the syncing of the lyrics to work), then double-click the lines of lyrics in real time as you play through the song. Then stop recording, reselect the song to reset the timing, and play the automation track.

It takes a while to set up, but now each line of lyrics will highlight and move to the middle of the screen as you perform the song.
