Looking for the mp3+g of Rod Stewart "Gasoline Alley". I see Zoom has it, but I cannot purchase from their website. Any version of it would be much appreciated.

Here you go, ZM version:

Hi Sacot1,

Yes, by all means keep uploading them!

I will keep them on one side until they have all been uploaded.

** The 50100's above do not link to the 50100 discs!**

 

Lee.

Sorry FIXED NOW

is never up to date.

Do you have another solution to find the trackID ?

Hi there,

 

I do not know of many better solutions, but I am aware of the following alternatives:

There are also the following (albeit not quite search engines):

(I think they have a subscription model for seeing songbooks, though)

This is the hidden content, please
(Karaoke Song List Creator is also quite out of date as far as I am aware, unfortunately)

 

It will likely be a situation having to look through multiple of these to try and find the information you want.

 

Maybe someone is aware of better engines for searching karaoke songs?

 

All the best,

To add to my own message, if you know which manufacturer you are looking for, some manufacturers have fairly decent searchable websites that offer much information.

 

Some examples are:

 

SBI/Abraxa/Aardon Aardvark/MPME

The SBI karaoke website (

This is the hidden content, please
) for instance, has a very neat search feature hidden away near the bottom.

Once you narrow down your search and choose your format and version (Abraxa vs MPME vs SBI vs Aaron Aardvark, etc.), it will show the track ID information as well. So, for those manufacturers, if you know what tracks you want information for and just need their IDs, then that is also a way to do it.

 

Karaoke Version

Similarly, Karaoke Version has a substantial amount of information on its website, and if you want to parse through its catalogue, they have an up-to-date XML file of all its available tracks (along with track IDs, etc.). I think the XML file can be downloaded from this link:

The list goes on. Unfortunately, uniformity in global karaoke indexing is a tougher challenge than one would expect!

 

P.s.

Regarding the links I shared earlier, I noticed that OpenKJ seems to be indexing the newer Zoom and Sunfly tracks as opposed to iCroons and Karatrack, but does not seem to show as much (if any at all) KV stuff.

 

Regards,

ADNA

Hi,

 

I only have the Sony BMG version. Hope this suffices:

The first 2 links do not display the KVs and that is what interests me the most.

And the Version-Karaoke site only allows you to download a PDF containing only the titles without their identifiers.

The link (

This is the hidden content, please
) is still active.

 

If you unzip this and open the XML file it has ALL the track information for their tracks including the IDs.

 

Here is a snippet from the XML file of a random track:

 

"

<artist id="2000">

<name>The Solids</name>

<name_sorted>Solids, The</name_sorted>

<url></url>

<rank>13130</rank>

<songs>

<song id="5022">

<name>Hey Beautiful</name>

<url>

<rank>74296</rank>

"

 

The file ID is likely what you are looking for. You just need to match the version of the file you have (whether its an MP3+G, instrumental, KFN, etc.)

Note, their "rank" indicates the generic ID for the song but all versions of the song - even different formats use the same song ID so its likely better to use the file ID rather than rank as the identifier.

Hi,

I have made a start on the CHARTBUSTER albums.

Does anyone have the following tracks on Chartbuster please?

 

Wham! - Freedom

Anita Baker - No One In The World

Anita Baker - Just Because

Anita Baker - Body & Soul

Babyface - This Is For The Lover In You

Babyface - And Our Feelings

Fuel - Shimmer

 

**I would like the Babyface tracks from a different source than Sacot1's please, as I am trying to get them at 44100 rather than 48000 sample rate.

Hi,

 

Here are the tracks from my collection; I checked some of them, and they appeared to be 44.1kHz. I think the Babyface ones in the batch were 48 kHz. My apologies!

 

Out of curiosity, why are you trying to get a version with a lower sampling rate?

 

Ultimately, according to Nyquist's Theorem, the signal message frequency when sampling 44.1k is approximately 22.05k and similarly for 48k sampling you should have recoverable artifacts up to 24k. Both should suffice for collection purposes. Typically the higher frequency range would be more desirable (unless you are sacrificing bit rate or characteristics such as dynamic range of course). Am I missing something?

All the best,
