Siqinisekisa ngokuzimeleyo yonke into esiyicebisayo. Xa uthenga ngeekhonkco zethu, sinokufumana ikhomishini. Funda ngakumbi>
UTom Dunn ngumbhali ogxile ekufudumaleni nasekupholiseni indlu. Wakha waqhumisa intambo yokwandisa esebenzisa isifudumezi sendawo kunye neyunithi yeMarshall half-stack.
Emva kovavanyo olunye, siceba ukongeza i-Ikarao Shell S1 10.1-intshi Smart Karaoke Machine njengeyona siyithandayo. Siza kuhlaziya esi sikhokelo ngeenkcukacha ezithe vetshe kungekudala.
Ngaba ulangazelela ukucula? Ngaba ulangazelela ukucula? Ngaba uphupha ucula iingoma zakho ozithandayo phambi kwabahlobo abambalwa abanomdla, ukonwabela ubuhle besandi phantsi kwezibane zeqonga ezibilayo kwigumbi lakho lokuhlala? Kaloku, bard yam ethandekayo, usenokufuna umatshini wakho wekaraoke.
I-karaoke yindlela entle yokuhlanganisa abantu abathanda umculo, nokuba bangabahlabeleli abalungileyo okanye akunjalo. Ukuba ufuna amava angcono kakhulu e-karaoke yasekhaya, sicebisa iTonor K20 Wireless Karaoke Machine kuba iya kukwenza ubonakale kwaye uve kamnandi nokuba ukhetha ziphi iingoma.
Le nkqubo yesithethi esiphathwayo inazo zonke izinto ozidingayo ukuze uqalise itheko lakho le-karaoke, ixhotyiswe ngeemakrofoni ezimbini ezingenazingcingo ezikumgangatho ophezulu kunye nebhola yedisco emangalisayo.
Umatshini we-karaoke ongenazingcingo weTonor K20 ulungele zonke iindlela zokusebenzisa i-karaoke ekhaya, kuquka i-tablet stand, i-adapter cable, kunye nezinye izixhobo ezininzi ezicingisisiweyo. Ukwanayo nemakrofoni engenazingcingo evakala ngcono kunayo nayiphi na imashini ye-karaoke esiyivavanyeyo, enomgama omalunga neenyawo ezili-100 ukuba ukusebenza kwakho kungaphumeleli. Ngomboniso wokukhanya we-LED owakhelwe ngaphakathi kunye nebhola ye-disco phezulu, iTonor ingaguqula naliphi na igumbi libe yiholo yekonsathi, isenze nabaculi abanamahloni bavume iingoma abazithandayo. Njengazo zonke iimashini ze-karaoke esizicebisayo, iTonor ayizi nethala leencwadi leengoma, ngoko ke uya kufuna uqhagamshelo lwe-Wi-Fi kunye nesikrini sokufikelela kwi-YouTube (okanye ezinye iinkonzo) ukuze udlale umculo kunye namazwi. Kodwa iTonor ihlukile ngokubonelela ngazo zonke iintambo zomsindo oza kuzifuna, kubandakanya iBluetooth kunye negalelo lomsindo oluncedisayo (kuqukwa nentambo). Ungadlala nomculo kwi-USB stick okanye kwikhadi le-microSD. Nangona kunjalo, izithethi zivakala ngcono xa ziphezulu, ezinokuba ziphezulu kakhulu kwabanye abasebenzisi (okanye kubamelwane babo). Njengebhonasi eyongezelelweyo, iTonor inezakhono zokurekhoda ezakhelwe ngaphakathi, ngoko ke ungarekhoda ukusebenza kwakho kwaye wabelane ngako nabahlobo, okanye umamele ukusebenza kwakho kamva kwaye uphucule ithoni yakho.
Imakrofoni kaMoukey ayivakali icacile njengoko besingathanda, kodwa isithethi ngokwaso sivakala kakuhle kwaye sinombhobho owakhelwe ngaphakathi kwelinye icala. Asiqinisekanga ukuba ubuso besikhova bufanelekile, nangona kunjalo.
Izithethi zeMoukey MTs10-2 karaoke machine zivakala ngcono kunezo sizikhethileyo, ingakumbi xa ziphantsi. Izilawuli ezisisiseko nazo zilula ukuzisebenzisa, nokuba ezinye zeempawu ezongezelelweyo zingadida. Imakrofoni engenazingcingo ikwavakala kwaye ivakala ingabizi kakhulu - nangona kukho izitendi ezimbalwa zemakrofoni eziluncedo ezakhelwe ecaleni kweyunithi. NjengeTonor, iMoukey inokudlala iingoma ngeBluetooth okanye i-input port encedisayo, i-USB stick, okanye ikhadi le-microSD, kwaye inokubonisa nomboniso we-LED onamandla ukukhuthaza amaphupha akho esiteji. Nangona kunjalo, ayinayo ibhola yedisco, into edanisayo ngaphezu kokuba besilindele, kwaye isithethi ngokwaso, esithi inkampani sifana nesikhova, sijongeka njengelungu labaphulaphuli abanomsindo. Sekunjalo, sinokukukhuthaza ukuba udlale ingoma yakho elandelayo.
Umgangatho wesandi sale mashini incinci yekaraoke ephathekayo awulunganga njengezinye iimveliso zethu, kodwa uza nezibane ezininzi ezimnandi kunye neziphumo zesandi zokukugcina wonwabile.
Ukuba awukhathali kakhulu ngomgangatho wesandi kwaye ufuna nje ukonwaba, iSingsation Star Burst SPKA25 lukhetho oluhle. Incinci ngokwaneleyo ukuba ungayiphatha ngesandla esinye, into onokuyidinga kuba ineemakrofoni ezimbini ezineentambo kunye nentambo enobude obuziimitha ezi-6 kuphela. Nangona kunjalo, njengeTonor K20, inebhola yedisco phezulu, kunye neepateni ezahlukeneyo ze-LED ezinokuboniswa kwisithethi ngokwaso. ISingsation ikwabandakanya iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokutshintsha iphimbo (cinga ngo-Alvin kunye neChipmunks), kunye nezinye iziphumo zesandi ezimnandi ezikuvumela ukuba wongeze ii-air horns, ii-hand claps, kunye nezinye izinto zokuhombisa kwi-karaoke yakho. Oko kuthethiweyo, isandi semakrofoni kunye nesithethi silungile kodwa asilungile, kwaye yiyo yodwa i-karaoke machine esivavanyileyo engenabhetri etshajwayo eyakhelwe ngaphakathi (ifuna iibhetri ezisibhozo ze-AA ukunika amandla ibhetri, eqhutywa yi-DC wall adapter). Kodwa ukuba ufuna isithethi esilula esinomboniso okhanyayo okhulisa ilizwi lakho ukuze ucule kunye, i-Singsation yimveliso yokuzonwabisa efikelelekayo.
Ukuba sele unayo inkqubo yestereo yasekhaya oyithandayo, iRybozen yindlela elula nefikelelekayo yokongeza iimakrofoni ezingenazingcingo kwizithethi zakho.
I-Rybozen K201 Portable Karaoke Microphone Mixer ngokuyintloko sisixhobo sokusasaza isandi esikuvumela ukuba ucule ngenkqubo yakho yestereo ekhoyo usebenzisa iimakrofoni ezingenazingcingo. Inika ukuseta okulula kakhulu: Kukho i-audio input ye-⅛-intshi kunye ne-audio output ye-⅛-intshi, kunye ne-Bluetooth kunye neentambo ezahlukeneyo ze-adaptha ezifanele ukusebenza nayo nayiphi na inkqubo yesandi yasekhaya. Umzekelo, ungaqhagamshela i-Rybozen kwi-smart TV kunye ne-soundbar, okanye uyiqhagamshele kwikhompyutha okanye kwithebhulethi kunye nezithethi zedesktop kwaye udlale iingoma zakho ozithandayo ze-karaoke ezivela kwi-YouTube. Ukongeza kwiinketho zethu eziphezulu, i-Rybozen ineemakrofoni ezilungileyo esizivavanyileyo, kwaye yenye yeemodeli ezimbalwa esizizamileyo ezibonelela ngolawulo lwevolumu nganye kwimakrofoni nganye, ukuba wena kunye neqabane lakho lokucula nithanda ukucula kumanqanaba evolumu ahlukeneyo. Lilonke, olu lukhetho oluhle ukuba sele unenkqubo yesandi oyonwabileyo ngayo kwaye awufuni ukugcina esinye isithethi.
Ndaqala ukubhala iingoma zeWirecutter ngo-2017, kwaye ngo-2000 ndaqala ukucula nokudlala isiginci kumaqela omculo kulo lonke elaseMpuma. Ndikwasebenze njengonjineli yesandi semidlalo yeqonga kunye nomxube kwiindawo zomculo, kwaye ndiyile kwaye ndivelise ii-albhamu ezininzi ezizimeleyo. Ndiyaziwa nangokucula kwam iculo likaChumbawamba elithi “Tubthumping” kwi-karaoke kunye ne-gab.
Ukuze sihlanganise esi sikhokelo, siqokelele imithombo evela kubathengisi abakhulu abafana neAmazon kunye neBest Buy, iGuitar Center kunye nezinye iivenkile zomculo ezikhethekileyo, kunye neenkampani ezigxile kwikaraoke ezifana neVocoPro kunye nomthengisi odumileyo we-Ace Karaoke eSan Gabriel, eCalifornia, ecaleni nje kwedolophu yaseLos Angeles. Uluhlu luquka oomatshini bekaraoke abangaphezu kwe-100. Sizame iinkonzo ezininzi zokubhalisela ikaraoke ezikuvumela ukuba ulayishe iifayile zakho zevidiyo ezinamazwi okanye ngenye indlela ufikelele kumakhulu amawaka eengoma ezingasemva ezinamazwi ngesiNgesi, iSpanish, kwanesiTagalog. Sifunde uphononongo lwabathengi abangaphezu kwe-1,000, sahlola abalandeli bekaraoke kuFacebook, saza sabonisana neqela labasebenzi beWirecutter abathanda ikaraoke. Sikwanodliwanondlebe ne-2020 Karaoke World Champion uGarvaundo Hamilton.
Esi sikhokelo senzelwe nabani na ofuna ukucula ekhaya okanye kwiindibano ezincinci. Mhlawumbi udiniwe kukucula eshaweni (nokuba i-acoustics imnandi). Mhlawumbi wena nabahlobo bakho niyonwabela kakhulu icandelo elisebenzisanayo le-The Rocky Horror Picture Show kwaye ningathanda ukukwazi ukufaka ilizwi lenu ngokulula kwiingoma. Okanye mhlawumbi uyazi nzulu ukuba ujonge izibane, ii-jets zeLear, ubutyebi, kunye nodumo, kodwa usadinga ukuziqhelanisa kancinci. I-Karaoke lishishini leebhiliyoni zeerandi eMelika, elineebhari zekaraoke ezingaphezu kwewaka kunye neendawo ezingenakubalwa ezibamba ubusuku bekaraoke ngamanye amaxesha. I-app yekaraoke i-Smule ithi inabasebenzisi abasebenzayo abazizigidi ezingama-50 ngenyanga - kwaye yi-app enye nje. Njengoko bonke abo bantu becula ngentliziyo yabo yonke, kuyaqondakala ukuba abanye babo banokufuna ukuthatha amava ngaphandle kwe-intanethi bawenze kwigumbi nabanye.
Nangona kunjalo, ukuba ujonge ukwenza itheko elikhulu okanye ukufumana italente kwindawo yakho yebhari, esi sikhokelo asilungelanga wena. Ngenxa yoko, kuya kufuneka uqeshe i-KJ (i-DJ ye-karaoke) enobuchule. Ukuba ujonge ukuba yi-KJ ngokwakho kwaye ufuna ingcebiso malunga nezixhobo ezikumgangatho ophezulu, le ayisiyondawo ifanelekileyo kuwe. Esi sikhokelo asizukukunceda ufumane inkqubo epheleleyo yedilesi kawonke-wonke (PA)—sicinge ngokuyincoma, kodwa sagqiba kwelokuba kuya kuba nzima kakhulu kubantu abaninzi abafuna nje ukubamba ubusuku obuncinci be-karaoke.
Eyona ngxaki inkulu esajongana nayo xa sasibhala esi sikhokelo yayilula kakhulu: Yintoni umatshini we-karaoke? Ngaba yimakrofoni ngokwayo? Ngaba kukukwazi ukuxuba umthombo wengoma kunye nengoma eyahlukileyo? Ngaba sisikrini esincinci esibonisa amazwi? Ngaba kukho ii-fireworks zekhompyutha ezitshizi ngasemva? Ngaba umatshini we-karaoke ufanele uze neefolda ezinkulu zeCD+Gs ezifakwe ibhiya ezihanjiswa ebharini veki nganye? Yintoni abantu abayikhangelayo ekhaya?
Emva kweeyure ezininzi zophando, sibuyele apho besiqale khona: bekungekho mpendulo icacileyo kumbuzo wokuba yintoni kanye kanye "umatshini wekaraoke".
Kodwa sifunde ukuba umatshini we-karaoke awusoloko (kwaye awusoloko unjalo) isikrini esiphathwayo sokufunda amazwi engoma. Enyanisweni, abathandi be-karaoke esibaphandayo bathi bayavuya kakhulu ukufumana iingoma abafuna ukuzicula kwi-YouTube, esele inezigidi zeevidiyo zasimahla ezisusa amazwi kwaye zibonisa kuphela amazwi engoma. (Kukwakho neenkonzo zokubhalisela i-karaoke ezibonelela ngeempawu eziphambili.) Sifumanise ukuba uninzi loomatshini be-karaoke abakumgangatho wabathengi abanazo nezikrini. Endaweni yoko, basebenza njengee-conduits—inkqubo yesithethi eyenzelwe ukusetyenziswa nethebhulethi okanye i-smart TV. Ngamanye amazwi, kuya kufuneka unikezele ngoqhagamshelo lwakho lwe-Wi-Fi kunye nesikrini, kodwa umatshini we-karaoke olungileyo kufuneka ukhathalele okunye.
Intshatsheli yeHlabathi yeKaraoke ka-2020 uGarvaundo Hamilton usinika elinye inqaku elisinceda silungise indlela esisebenza ngayo. “Akukho lindelo lininzi kwikaraoke,” usixelele. “Niyenza ngenxa yokuzonwabisa, nabahlobo, kwindawo eyahlukileyo. Andiyi kwehlisa imigangatho yam yokucula kuba nje yikaraoke. Kodwa kukho umahluko omncinci kuba ndilindele ukuba nibe nexesha elimnandi.”
Le yeyona migaqo iphambili esithe sayithatha: umatshini we-karaoke akufuneki ukuba ube nesikrini, kodwa kufuneka ubeke phambili ulonwabo.
Nantsi enye inkcazelo esiyifumeneyo xa sithetha nabathandi bekaraoke eyasinceda ekukhangeleni kwethu umatshini wekaraoke ongcono:
Ezinye zeemashini zekaraoke esizijongileyo kuphando lwethu lokuqala zikwabonelela ngezinto ezinomdla, ezifana nezibonisi zokukhanya okanye ukukwazi ukurekhoda isandi sentsebenzo. Iqela lethu elijolise kulo alizange licinge ukuba ezi zinto ziyimfuneko ngokwenene, kodwa abanye bathi bangathanda iimpawu ezongezelelweyo ukuba ziyafumaneka. Sikwababuze ukuba bacinga ntoni ngokusebenzisa ikhonsoli yokuxuba eqhelekileyo ukwenza inkqubo yekaraoke eyenzelwe wena, kodwa bonke bavuma ukuba inzima kakhulu. Wonke umntu esithethe naye ugxininise ukuba xa kufuneka udibanise izinto ezimbalwa, kokukhona kungcono.
Uninzi lweematshini zekaraoke zanamhlanje azinazo izikrini. Endaweni yoko, zisebenza njengeziteshi—inkqubo yesithethi eyenzelwe ukusebenza ngethebhulethi okanye iTV ehlakaniphileyo.
Sicinga ngezi mfuno, kunye nolindelo lokonwaba, sikhangele oomatshini bekaraoke ukuze sizivavanye. Sithanda iimodeli ezineendlela ezahlukeneyo zokufaka/zokukhupha isandi, nto leyo eyenza zifaneleke ngakumbi kwiinkqubo ezahlukeneyo zesandi sasekhaya. Sicinga ukuba iBluetooth kunye ne-input port encedisayo ziya kuba zilungele abantu abaninzi, kodwa besifuna ukugubungela iziseko ezininzi kangangoko kunokwenzeka.
Sinciphise uluhlu lokuqala saya kwiimodeli ezingama-25 saza sagqiba ekubeni sivavanye ezisi-7. Iimatshini ezine zekaraoke zinezithethi ezakhelwe ngaphakathi kunye nesibonisi sokukhanya esakhelwe ngaphakathi: iTonor K20 Wireless Karaoke Machine, iMoukey MTs10-2 Karaoke Machine, iIon Audio Party Rocker Max, kunye neSingsation Star Burst SPKA25. Sivavanye neematshini ezimbini zekaraoke ezingenazithethi ezenzelwe ukuqhagamshela kwinkqubo yesandi yasekhaya ekhoyo (ukuba sele unayo isandi, umzekelo): iVocoPro SmartTVOke kunye neRybozen K201 Portable Karaoke Microphone Mixer. Ekugqibeleni, sivavanye enye imodeli: iVocoPro WiFi-Oke Wireless Karaoke Machine enonxibelelwano lweWi-Fi kunye nesikrini esakhelwe ngaphakathi, esifanelekileyo kwabo bangenayo ithebhulethi okanye iTV ehlakaniphileyo, okanye abo bafuna ngokwenene umatshini ozimeleyo ngokupheleleyo.
I-Polk MagniFi Mini AX yeyona soundbar ilungileyo kuba inomsindo kwaye iyazikisa, incinci, ifikeleleka ngexabiso eliphantsi, kwaye kulula ukuyisebenzisa.
Okokuqala, nangona kunjalo, kwafuneka silungiselele umatshini ngamnye. Sithathe amanqaku aneenkcukacha malunga nokuba inkqubo yokuseta yayilula kangakanani (okanye hayi). Ngaba zonke ii-jacks zesandi kunye nee-knobs zibhalwe ngokucacileyo kwaye kulula ukuzisebenzisa? Ngaba ungayifumana indlela yokufikelela kuzo zonke iimpawu ngaphandle kokubhekisa kwincwadi yemiyalelo ngalo lonke ixesha? (Ukuba ufuna ukubhekisa kwincwadi yemiyalelo, ngaba iyasebenza ngokwenene?) Sigxile ngokukodwa kuqhagamshelo lweBluetooth kunye ne-assistant port, sicinga ukuba ezi zezona zinto abantu abaninzi abaya kuzisebenzisa ixesha elininzi. Ngelixa umatshini ngamnye we-karaoke esiwuvavanyeyo uza nentambo yawo ye-assistant, bekungekho kuhambelana kwezinye iintambo okanye izixhobo ezifakwe kwibhokisi nganye—njenge-tablet stand okanye i-splash guard yokuthintela ukuvuza kwamanzi ukuba kungangeni kwi-microphone cover. Kwii-karaoke machines ezine-light displays, sikwajonge ukuba zinokwenziwa ngokwezifiso kangakanani, ukuba zikhona. Kwii-modeles ezingenasithethi esizivavanyeyo, sizifake nakwii-modeles ezimbini ezahlukeneyo zeTV, kunye nekhompyutha kunye ne-iPad, ukuze sibone ukuba zonke zithelekiswa njani.
Emva koko saqalisa ukurekhoda iingoma zethu esizithandayo zeThin Lizzy, kunye neBiz Markie kunye neT-Swift encinci. (Ukuba uhlala kumgangatho wesithathu wesakhiwo esijongene nam, ndiyaxolisa ukuba awuzange undithande ndicula iingoma zeMisfits ngeHalloween.) Sijonge ukucaca kwesandi semakrofoni: Ingaba yingxolo okanye yinto ethile? Ngaba uyayiva ingoma iphuma? Ngaba onke amagama angacaca? Sikwavavanye ukubamba imakrofoni kwii-engile ezahlukeneyo ukuze sifumane umbono ongcono wempendulo eguquguqukayo yemakrofoni nganye. Ukuba umatshini wekaraoke une-EQ okanye ukhetho lwe-echo, siza kuzama ezo ndlela, ukuze sibone ukuba zichaphazela njani isandi, ukuba zikhona.
Sikwajonge nendlela ekulula ngayo ukusebenzisa umatshini phakathi kweengoma. Ngaba umatshini uneqhosha lokumisa okanye lokutsiba elakhelwe ngaphakathi? Ukuba unesixhobo sokubamba ithebhulethi, ngaba uzinzile ngokwaneleyo ukuba sikwazi ukukhetha ingoma elandelayo ngaphandle kokuphazamisa ukuhamba kobusuku? Ukuba umatshini wekaraoke unezixhobo ezongezelelweyo (ezifana nemakrofoni eyongezelelweyo eneentambo), siyazijonga nazo, ngokuqhelekileyo sisebenzisa imakrofoni yeShure SM58, eyindlela engaqhelekanga kushishino lomculo ophilayo. Sikwathelekise isandi esivela kwezi zixhobo ezongezelelweyo nomgangatho wemakrofoni yomatshini.
Ekugqibeleni, sikhuphe oomatshini abangenazingcingo nabasebenzisa iBluetooth saza salinganisa uluhlu lwemiqondiso yabo. Sikwavavanye nomgangatho wesithethi ngokubanzi kumanqanaba ahlukeneyo esandi. Emva koko, sivule saza saqhekeza isixhobo ngasinye ukuze sijonge ngcono izinto zaso kunye nendlela eziqhagamshelwe ngayo.
Le nkqubo yesithethi esiphathwayo inazo zonke izinto ozidingayo ukuze uqalise itheko lakho le-karaoke, ixhotyiswe ngeemakrofoni ezimbini ezingenazingcingo ezikumgangatho ophezulu kunye nebhola yedisco emangalisayo.
I-Tonor K20 Wireless Karaoke Machine yeyona mashini ye-karaoke ibalaseleyo kuba kulula ukuyiphatha, ukuyiseta, kunye nokuyisebenzisa, kwaye umgangatho wesandi ucacile kunezinye iimodeli esizivavanyileyo. Ngokusisiseko sisipikha sama-watt angama-250 esinamavili esinesiphatho se-teleskopu esiza nezixhobo ezininzi ezicingisisiweyo (kubandakanya iimakrofoni ezimbini ezingenazingcingo) ukuze kube lula ukuhamba phakathi kwabathathi-nxaxheba. I-Tonor iqhagamshela ngokulula kwithebhulethi yakho okanye kwi-smart TV ngeBluetooth okanye ngentambo encedisayo. Unokukhetha ukudlala umculo kwi-USB drive okanye kwikhadi le-microSD (ukuba uneingoma ezikhutshelweyo kwinkonzo yokubhalisa, umzekelo), ekufuneka zigubungele zonke iimfuno zakho. Iphakheji ikwabandakanya ne-tablet stand, ekuvumela ukuba usebenzise isixhobo njengesikrini samagama kwaye ucule kunye neenkonzo zakho ozithandayo. Ukongeza, kukho ibhola ye-disco epholileyo phezulu, eyongeza kumava omboniso iyonke. Kodwa ungakhathazeki - kulula ukuyicima ukuba une-photophobia.
I-Tonor iza neemakrofoni ezimbini ezingenazingcingo, isebenza ngeebhetri ze-AA (azifakwanga), kwaye iza nentambo yokuncedisa, intambo yokuncedisa ye-RCA, kunye ne-DC adapter yokutshaja. Le phakheji ikwaquka nezinye izixhobo ezingezizo ezomsindo, ezifana ne-remote control; isibambi sethebhulethi esinamathela kwisiphatho se-telescopic; kunye nezigqubuthelo zefoam ezihlanjwayo (ezibizwa ngokuba zii-pop filters) ezikhusela imakrofoni ekurhawuzeleni nasekubetheni; kukho ityesi yokuphatha ethambileyo eya kugcina yonke into, ngoko akufuneki ukhathazeke ngokugcina yonke into phakathi kweegig. Ziinkcukacha ezicingisisiweyo ezenza lo matshini we-karaoke ubonakale ngokwenene.
Imakrofoni yeTonor ivakala ngcono kunawo onke amamashini ekaraoke esiwavavanyeyo, inika isandi esicacileyo nokuba besicula ngqo phezulu okanye sikhwaza sisuka ecaleni. Kwiimvavanyo zethu, uluhlu lwemakrofoni lwalumalunga neenyawo ezili-100 ngaphambi kokuba uqhagamshelo olungenazingcingo luqale ukwehla. Yonke eminye imakrofoni esiyizamileyo yayinoluhlu olufanayo (ngaphandle kweVocoPro, enesiqingatha soluhlu), kodwa akukho nanye eyayivakala kakuhle njengeTonor. (Eyona nto ingcono, amazwi ethu avakala engacacanga kwaye egqwethekileyo, kwaye iidiaphragm ezimxinwa, ezinecala elinye ziyenza ingacaci yonke into nokuba sicula kangakanani kuzo.)
Izithethi ezakhelwe ngaphakathi zeTonor zivakala kakuhle, zine-tweeter ezimbini ze-intshi ezi-3 (kwii-frequencies eziphezulu) kunye ne-woofer ye-intshi ezi-8 (kwizandi eziphantsi) kwikhabhathi yomthi evakalayo. Xa kuthelekiswa neMoukey MTs10-2, ene-woofer enkulu, kunye ne-Ion Audio Party Rocker Max, ene-tweeter enye kuphela, iTonor ivakala ingagcwele kakhulu xa ivakala kancinci. Kodwa xa sanyusa ivolumu ngokwaneleyo ukwahlula izithethi, isandi sasityebile kunezinye iimodeli esizivavanyileyo. Sekunjalo, mhlawumbi awuyi kufuna ukuyinyusa kakhulu—i-250 watts yamandla inokusingatha ivolumu eninzi. Ukuba ufuna ngokwenene ukulungisa isandi seTonor xa ivakala kancinci, ine-bass kunye ne-treble equalizer (EQ) knobs ukukunceda ucofe ithoni oyifunayo, nangona mhlawumbi akuyi kufuneka utshintshe kakhulu.
I-Tonor inomboniso wokukhanya owakhelwe ngaphakathi omnandi, kunye ne-LED ekhanyayo ngaphambili kwesithethi kunye nebhola yedisco phezulu. Ibhola yedisco ayikhanyi njengaleyo ikwi-Ion Party Rocker, kodwa ayinakwenzeka ukuba yonakalise amehlo akho ngelixa isakhanya ngokwaneleyo ukuguqula igumbi lokuhlala elikhanyayo libe yindawo efana neklabhu. Awunakulawula ii-LED ezikwizithethi okanye kwibhola yedisco, nangona ziqala ukuhamba kancinci njengoko umculo ufikelela phezulu. Ayisiyomboniso wokukhanya ohambelanayo, kodwa kwakhona, i-karaoke ayisiyonto ivelisayo. Ukuba awufuni ukusebenzisa ibhola yedisco (masithi, ukuba uvakalelwa yifleshi okanye awuyithandi), kulula ukuyicima ngokucinezela iqhosha elibhalwe ngokucacileyo ngaphambili. Ngaphandle kokukhanya, ibhetri yeTonor kufuneka ihlale ukuya kuthi ga kwiiyure ezili-12. Nangona singafumananga milinganiselo ichanekileyo, sifumanise ukuba sinokonwabela iiseshoni ezininzi zekaraoke ezintle ngaphandle kokufuna ukuphinda sitshaje.
Yonke enye into oyifunayo ukuze usebenzise iTonor ikwiphaneli engaphambili, kwaye okubaluleke ngakumbi, yonke into ibhalwe ngokucacileyo kwaye kulula ukuyifumana. Oku kunokubonakala ngathi yinto eqhelekileyo, kodwa ngelishwa ayixhaphakanga phakathi kwezinye iimatshini zekaraoke, mhlawumbi ayixhaphakanga njengoko unokucinga. Umzekelo, iTonor yeyona modeli siyivavanyileyo eneswitshi yombane kwiphaneli engaphambili, apho zonke iindlela zokufaka isandi zikwakho. (Ukuba ukhathazekile okanye awuqinisekanga ngokuseta izixhobo zesandi, incwadi yemiyalelo yomsebenzisi (iPDF) ilula, icacile, kwaye ineenkcukacha.) Umphambili weyunithi unolawulo olukhulu lwesandi, amaqhosha amancinci azimeleyo amaninzi esandi semakrofoni, kunye neqhosha le-echo level elidala isiphumo phakathi kwe-reverb kunye ne-delay (okuncinci kunokunceda ilizwi lakho livakale liphezulu kwaye lithambile, kodwa linokuba likhulu ngokukhawuleza).
Iiknob ezimbini ze-EQ zeTonor zikuvumela ukuba ulungise i-bass kunye namanqanaba e-treble okufakwa kwesandi. Asicingi ukuba uninzi lwabantu luya kufuna ukuzikhathaza ngale nto—njengoko besitshilo, izithethi zivakala kakuhle zodwa—kodwa ukuba ufuna ukunyusa i-bass kancinci okanye ukongeza ukugquma okuphezulu, olu lukhetho olufanelekileyo. I-Tonor ikwanayo ne-input eyongezelelweyo ye-¼-intshi ukuba ufuna ukongeza imakrofoni eneentambo ezongezelelweyo. Ungadibanisa negitala kule jack—ine-preamp enyusa isignali yokufakwayo ukuya kwinqanaba lomgca, ngoko ke isandi siphuma ngevolumu efanayo nemakrofoni engenazingcingo. Xa kuthelekiswa, i-input ye-¼-intshi yeMoukey MTs10-2 isethwe kwinqanaba lemakrofoni, nto leyo eyenza ukuba izole kakhulu kunemakrofoni engenazingcingo equkwe kule modeli ithile.
I-Tonor inesikrini se-LCD esibonisa i-audio input yangoku kunye nenqanaba lebhetri. Ukuba usebenzisa i-USB stick okanye ikhadi le-microSD ukudlala i-audio, esi sikrini siya kukunceda ujonge kwiimenyu. Kukho amaqhosha amancinci ambalwa ecaleni kwesikrini akuvumela ukuba ulawule imithombo yokufaka, kunye nokumisa/ukudlala okanye ukutsiba iingoma xa usebenzisa i-Bluetooth okanye i-Drive. Ungamisa okanye uqalise umculo ngqo kwiyunithi ngaphandle kokukhupha ithebhulethi yakho okanye i-remote, enye into ecingisisiweyo eyenza amava apheleleyo okusebenzisa i-Tonor abe mnandi ngakumbi. Amanye amaqhosha akunceda ukulawula iindlela zokurekhoda ezakhelwe ngaphakathi ze-Tonor, ezifuna i-USB stick ukuba iqhagamshelwe ukurekhoda idatha njengee-MP3. Asiyi kuxoxa ngale nto ngokweenkcukacha - ayisiyonto ifunekayo. Kodwa yenye into entle eyongezelelweyo elula ngokumangalisayo ukuyisebenzisa. I-Moukey inokhetho lokurekhoda olufanayo, kodwa besingazi nokuba singayisebenzisa njani.
Eyona ngxaki inkulu yeTonor iyafana nazo zonke iimatshini zekaraoke ezisebenzisa yonke into esizivavanyeyo: Nangona kukho ulawulo olukhulu lwevolumu kwiimakrofoni, akukho ndlela yokulawula imakrofoni nganye nganye. Oku kunokuba yingxaki kuphela ukuba uceba ukucula i-duet nomntu onelizwi elahlukileyo kakhulu kwelakho, kodwa akunjalo ukuba uceba ukucula inguqulelo kaDavid Bowie noMick Jagger kunye neqabane elithuleyo. "Street Dancing," enokuba yinto ecaphukisayo.
Njengoko besitshilo apha ngasentla, isandi seTonor xa sinomthamo ophantsi asinamandla njengezinye iimatshini zekaraoke ezikwi-all-in-one esizivavanyileyo. Kodwa sisavakala kakuhle (iqhosha le-EQ liyanceda) kwaye livakala kakuhle xa sinomthamo ophezulu. Oku kusenokuba kungenxa yokuba i-subwoofer yeTonor ye-intshi ezi-8 incinci kune-subwoofer ye-intshi ezili-10 kaMoukey (i-Ion Party Rocker nayo ine-subwoofer ye-intshi ezi-8, kodwa i-tweeter kuphela). Umgama phakathi kwezithethi uxhomekeke kubunzulu bekhowuni yesipikha, ngoko ke kukho izinto ezininzi ezidlalayo. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba sikhetha kakhulu oku, into engayi kuqatshelwa ngabathandi bekaraoke abaqhelekileyo. Kodwa ke, ngumsebenzi wethu lowo.
Asiyithandi i-DC power port engaphambili kweTonor, nto leyo eyenza ibonakale kakhulu xa ixhunyiwe ukuze itshajwe. Kodwa zonke ii-electronic controls zikwi-front panel yodwa, nto leyo eluncedo ngezinye iindlela, ngoko ke siza kuyisebenzisa.
Imakrofoni kaMoukey ayivakali icacile njengoko besingathanda, kodwa isithethi ngokwaso sivakala kakuhle kwaye sinombhobho owakhelwe ngaphakathi kwelinye icala. Asiqinisekanga ukuba ubuso besikhova bufanelekile, nangona kunjalo.
Ukuba iTonor ayifumaneki, okanye ufuna into enesandi esityebileyo nesithuleyo, okanye uthanda nje ii-owls ezinomsindo, iMoukey MTs10-2 Karaoke Machine lukhetho oluhle. NjengeTonor, iza neemakrofoni ezimbini ezingenazingcingo kwaye ineendlela ezifanayo zokufaka isandi, kunye nee-input ezimbini ze-¼-intshi zeemakrofoni ezongezelelweyo ezinentambo (oko kuthetha ukuba ungasebenzisa ukuya kuthi ga kwiimakrofoni ezine ngexesha elinye, ngelixa iTonor ingasebenzisa ezintathu kuphela). Ikwanayo nerediyo ye-FM eyakhelwe ngaphakathi ukuba ufuna ukucula kunye nesitishi sakho serediyo osithandayo. Nangona iyunithi ngokwayo ivakala ngcono kuneTonor, imakrofoni engenazingcingo efakiweyo ivakala kwaye ivakala ingabizi kakhulu. IMoukey ayinayo nebhola yedisco—besingayi kukhathazeka ukuba isibonisi sayo se-LED asizange senze isithethi sibonakale njengombukeli onomsindo ojonge kuwe ngasemva kwentloko ebuhlungu.
Iphaneli yokulawula yeMoukey iphezu kwesithethi esivelelayo, kunokuba ibe ngaphambili. Njengesikhethi sethu esiphezulu, inesiphatho seteleskopu kunye nesiphathi sethebhulethi esisuswayo, nto leyo ekunika indawo efanelekileyo yokufunda izikhokelo zombhalo. Iiknob zokulawula eziphambili (i-echo, ivolumu yemakrofoni, ivolumu enkulu, kunye ne-bass/treble EQ) zikhulu kwaye kulula ukuzifumana kuneeknob ezifanayo kwiTonor. Sikwafumanisa ukuba indawo yazo ifanelekile ngakumbi. NjengeTonor, iMoukey inamaqhosha okumisa/ukudlala kunye namaqhosha okuya phambili/ukubuyela umva ecaleni kwezi dials, okwenza kube lula ukutsiba okanye ukumisa iingoma kumatshini ngokwawo.
Lo matshini unezinye izinto ezongezelelweyo ezingenazo iTonor: useto "lwe-mic priority" (olumisa umculo ngokuzenzekelayo xa imakrofoni ifumana isandi) kunye nokususwa kwelizwi "ngokuzenzekelayo" (okuthiwa kukunceda wenze inguqulelo ye-karaoke yayo nayiphi na ingoma). Ngelishwa, zombini ezi mpawu ziyacaphukisa kwaye azincedi kakhulu. Useto lwe-mic priority yeyona icaphukisayo - luluncedo kakhulu kuphela ukuba uceba ukusebenzisa iMoukey ukwenza umculo kwitheko, kuba awukwazi ukucofa iqhosha elithi "misa" ngokwakho. I-Vocal Remover ngokusisiseko isusa zonke iifrikhwensi ze-midrange (PDF) apho amazwi adla ngokuhlala khona; ikwasusa uninzi lwezandi ezibalulekileyo zegitare kunye nekhibhodi, okwenza ingoma ivakale ngathi yinto engenanto yokulinganisa. I-Moukey kuthiwa inezakhono zokurekhoda ezakhelwe ngaphakathi, kodwa asikwazanga ukufumana indlela yokuzisebenzisa, kwaye incwadi yemiyalelo ayincedanga.
Iimakrofoni ezingenazingcingo zeMoukey zilula kakhulu kunezinye, kwaye nganye inendandatho yombala owahlukileyo ezantsi ukuze ukwazi ukuzahlula ukuba ufuna. (Noko ke, akukho mfuneko yokuzahlula zombini kuba iMoukey ayinayo indlela eyahlukileyo yokulawula ivolumu yemakrofoni.) Zikwavakala ngathi zenziwe ngeplastiki engabizi kakhulu kwaye ziziva zikhululekile, zinokwaphuka xa zilahliwe. Ngethamsanqa, iMoukey ineemakrofoni ezimbini ezilungele ukurhoxa emacaleni, okwenza kube lula ukugcina imakrofoni phakathi kweengoma. Ngokuphathelele isandi, imakrofoni engenazingcingo yeMoukey ilungile. Zazinokwanda kakhulu kwaye zazingaphenduli kakuhle, ngoko ke kwafuneka sicule ngqo embindini ophezulu wemakrofoni, kwaye amazwi ethu ayesavakala egqwethekile kwaye enodaka. Isiphumo se-echo sinokunceda ukuthambisa imiphetho kancinci, kodwa okuninzi kakhulu kunokwenza isandi sibe nodaka. Ngelixa uluhlu lwe-wireless oluthenjisiweyo lukaMookie lumalunga neenyawo ezingama-65 kuphela, kuvavanyo lwethu sikwazile ukufikelela phantse kwiinyawo ezili-100 ngaphambi kokuba imakrofoni iqale ukulahlekelwa sisignali.
IMoukey ikwanako nokudibanisa iimayikrofoni ezimbini ezongezelelweyo ezinee-intshi ezingama-¼. Nangona kunjalo, ngokungafaniyo ne-Tonor's ¼-intshi engenisiweyo, iiMoukey's zibonakala zisebenza kwinqanaba lemayikrofoni okanye zisondele kwinqanaba lemayikrofoni, nto leyo esicinga ukuba yiyo loo nto ezi mayikrofoni zinee-wireless zithule kakhulu kunezinye ezingenazingcingo. Le nkampani yavuma le ngxaki xa iphendula umbuzo womhlalutyi weAmazon, kodwa iselukhetho loyilo olungaqhelekanga. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba uqhagamshela umthombo wezinga lesixhobo (njengegitala) kwezi zixhobo zine-intshi ezingama-¼, uza kulunga.
