KaraFun karaoke

I am quite impressed with the free product, as it stands it resolves several major issues I have been having with using live audio backing tracks. But the extra tracks, if they behave as I hope, will really enable me to create some great music.

Questions:

1: Can I create all these tracks in my studio beforehand and sync or somehow bundle them with the original audio track? What I want to do is have a separate track for bass and another for drums, so if I'm playing a trio gig, the tracks are just horns, backup vocals and click reference, but if I'm playing as a duo, I can add the bass or drums I'm missing, and as solo I just add them both.

2: If I do this, will all the tracks change pitch with the main track? Can I can I change pitch on just one of the tracks and leave another (drums) unchanged?

3: If I have set up a playlist and then mute say, the background vocal track, will the next song also have that track muted, or will I need to set it up for each song?

Please, someone with knowledge elp me out here, I am happy to buy software that does what i need, but I have spent so many thousands of dollars (back when they were real money...) on software that works fine but is not right for my needs, that I always ask first.

Thanks for any help.

I have the pro version and use it constantly. Love it!

But I don't think it will do all that you are looking for. You can add guide vocal, Guide melody, and guide backup tracks, but I can't find a way to have much control over them except volume.

If I'm wrong I hope someone corrects me. I don't use that feature in my work.

I use Karfun studio in conjuction with PG music products to get the results I want.
