Abstract

PURPOSE: To auditorily avoid a disagreement between a sectional song voice and an accompanying music by recording the sectional song voice in the latter half area of the accompanying music one section earlier than a partial accompanying music corresponding to the song voice. CONSTITUTION: When an accompanying music and a song word voice are recorded to a recording medium 11, two stereo tracks are used as an accompanying music- recording part 12 and a voice-recording part 13. The recording part 13 is divided to recording sections R1-R12. A series of the accompanying music is recorded to the recording part 12 and, in synchronization with this, sectional song voices K1-K12 are recorded to the recording part, 13. At this time, song voices are recorded one section earlier than partial accompanying musics M1-M12 at the trail of the respective recording sections R1-R12. In other words, the sectional song voice K corresponding to a music part M1 is recorded to the recording part 13 at the trail of a prelude music part Ms , and the sectional song voice K2 corresponding to a music part M2 is recorded to the recording part 13 at the trail of the partial accompanying music M1 . Accordingly, song voices K1 -K12 can be heard immediately before the music parts M1-2 . A recording medium enabling easy singing is thus formed.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a song recording method, a recorded recording medium, and a recording / reproducing apparatus.

[0002]

As is well known, as a karaoke device,
The audiovisual (AV) version has become popular. In the case of an AV karaoke device, accompaniment music is played from a speaker, and characters indicating lyrics are sequentially displayed on the display. Therefore, when the singer sings his own singing voice into the microphone while watching the lyrics, the voice is mixed with the accompaniment music and flows out from the speaker. As another karaoke device, there is also a type in which a player for accompaniment music recorded on a laser disc, a recording tape, a recording disc, or the like is externally attached to an existing TV device or an existing audio device.

When singing along with the accompaniment music of the karaoke apparatus, the most difficult part is the beginning of the singing, and inconsistency with the accompaniment often occurs at the beginning of the singing. By the way, if you are a beginner of singing karaoke, or have a poor singing ability, you need to start singing after listening to the accompaniment music at the beginning of the song.
It causes a gap of about 2 beats and continues to sing along with the gap in accompaniment music. This tendency is seen even when a person other than a beginner sings an unfamiliar song. The obvious way to improve karaoke singing is to spend more time practicing repeatedly and memorizing lyrics, accompaniment music, etc. as a matter of course. Since he is not familiar with karaoke, there is a discrepancy with the accompaniment music due to the above when singing.

As a countermeasure against this, in an AV karaoke device, the lyrics characters displayed on the display are projected or changed in color in accordance with the singing speed (speed matching accompaniment music) so that this can be used as a guide during singing. I have to. In the case of an audio system karaoke device, there is no lyrics display means or singing speed display means which is a standard when singing.

[0005]

In the case of the above-mentioned AV karaoke apparatus, in order to make the singer sing a song that matches the accompaniment music, the singing speed is displayed on the display by using the lyric character. ing. However, a person who is unfamiliar with karaoke singing does not proceed simultaneously with the lyrics display which also serves as the singing speed display but starts singing after visually recognizing the lyrics display, which causes the disagreement with the accompaniment music.

Even those who are accustomed to singing karaoke can avoid mistakes in lyrics and inconsistency with accompaniment music.
Sometimes the line of sight is fixed to the lyrics display (display) that also serves as the singing speed display. In this way, singing that cannot be afforded is intriguing regardless of oneself or others. In particular, when the singer's singing movement is projected on a large projector (projector) to try to enjoy it, the effect of the effect is diminished.

Others, such as an audio system karaoke device, which does not have a visual lyrics display means and a singing speed display means, cannot transmit the lyrics and the singing speed. Therefore, in the case of this kind of karaoke device, the degree of difficulty in singing is higher than that of AV type devices, and people who cannot read characters (eg, children)
The use of is restricted.

[Object of the Invention] In order to solve such a technical problem, the present invention can audibly avoid the disagreement with the accompaniment music, and sings a karaoke song with a margin, regardless of whether it is a beginner or an expert. It aims to provide technology that can be enjoyed.
