In view of the above problems, claim 1 of the present invention provides
In karaoke equipment that can set sound such as reverberation time,
The karaoke device has a venue selection means for selecting one venue from a plurality of performance venues,
The acoustic effect such as reverberation time and frequency characteristics of the venue selected by the selection means is reflected,
By being displayed as a background video from the performer's perspective at the venue,
It is a network karaoke system characterized by being able to enjoy the sense of presence singing at the performance hall.

Further, claim 2 of the present invention provides
In the claim 1, the karaoke apparatus has an image of the audience seats of a performance venue broadcast as the background image.
By displaying the video recorded by omnidirectional photography in the VR (virtual reality) playback environment in advance at the performance venue,
It is a network karaoke system characterized by being able to enjoy the sense of presence singing at the performance hall.

  This allows the singer not only to enjoy the view from the stage of the hall, but also to enjoy the actual sound of the hall as a background image, with the intention of becoming a singing artist by selecting the hall at the time of singing. Can do.

The image figure at the time of the singing which concerns on the Example of Claim 2 of this invention. The image figure of the sound detailed setting menu of the remote control which concerns on the Example of this invention. The image figure of hall selection at the time of the song music selection which concerns on the Example of this invention. The example of the hall | hole data which concerns on the Example of this invention. The image figure at the time of the singing which concerns on the Example of Claim 1 of this invention. The image figure at the time of the tour selection at the time of the song music selection which concerns on the Example of this invention. The image figure of the echo which concerns on the acoustic setting of this invention. Setting example of graphic equalizer related to acoustic setting in hall. Setting example of graphic equalizer to reproduce the sound of the hall.

In order to obtain a sense that a singer sings in a hall, it is necessary to visually reproduce the characteristics of each hall in addition to visually viewing the hall seats.
As shown in FIG. 4, the hall has various acoustic personalities.

The recent karaoke remote control 5 has a setting menu as shown in FIG. 2, and it is possible to set equalization, echo parameters, etc. by a plurality of bands.
The equalizer function of the remote controller 5 is a simple parameter of 4 bands for simplifying the user setting as shown in 4 of FIG. 2, but by setting this band, it is possible to make the setting equivalent to the graphic equalizer.
Here, when the equalizer setting for preventing the howling of the hole is as shown in FIG. 8, in order to reproduce the sound in the hole, by setting the opposite of FIG. 8 as shown in FIG. The sound that can be heard on the stage of the hall can be approached.
FIG. 7 is an image showing the speed and depth of the echo, but the echo parameter can be set by the echo “speed” key 3 and the echo “depth” key 2 in the menu of FIG. By using the echo parameter setting, the reverberation time for each hole described above can be reproduced.

These setting data are measured in advance for each hole and stored as acoustic data for each hole.
A singer can call and sing the acoustic data specific to each hall by selecting a hole to be sung as shown in FIG. 3 when selecting a song.
