Karaoke reproducing apparatus.

摘要

A Karaoke apparatus in which after one Karaoke play was finished, a show-up effect according to the next Karaoke playing music piece is obtained for a period of time until the start of the next Karaoke play. Control information of a plurality of music pieces is previously reproduced by the reproducing means from the recorded information on a recording medium and is stored in memory. When one of the plurality of music pieces is selected by an operation, the control information corresponding to the selected music piece is read out from the memory and is supplied to the external apparatus to thereby start the operation. After that, the recording medium is played with regard to the selected music piece, thereby starting the reproduction of the Karaoke playing sound. Before the next Karaoke playing sound is generated, the external apparatus starts the operation according to the next Karaoke playing sound, so that the image of the selected music piece to be subsequently played is expressed by the external apparatus. <IMAGE>
