The systems of Karaoke and skills to get the score

Do you like to sing karaoke? Even if not, you can't help but admit that karaoke is a whole culture. Where did it come from?

Karaoke was invented in Japan by Daiske Inoue, a nightclub musician.

There were a lot of clubs in Japan in the 70s, and Inoue didn't have time to play everywhere.

Then he came up with a music machine with his instrumental, which displayed the lyrics of songs on the screen.

Now in most countries karaoke bars are public places: everyone can hear you singing.

But in Japan, another format is common – karaoke boxing. You book a room in advance where you sing karaoke with friends – and no one will be around.

Food and drinks can be ordered from the karaoke room by phone.

Some karaoke systems have a scoring system.

Everyone is always interested in the question: how does the machine calculate the degree of singing quality?

It all depends on the karaoke system.

But it always has an ideal performance with indicators of the best tonality, tempo and rhythm.

If you sing close to ideal, you have high points.

The old karaoke systems were not too demanding: if you sing loudly, you get a high score.

Modern systems are smarter and promise that it will not work to deceive the algorithm with volume.

But at the same time, the system will not underestimate the score if, for example, you sang not with the key of the original, but hit the notes.

Personally, I don't like karaoke, because I don't like how non-professionals sing although I understand that they also want to sing.

I am for professional performance, and in this sense I like the Japanese with their karaoke boxes more.
