I'm aware that they sell machines purely for the purpose of playing CD+G format CDs, which is what is used for most karaoke operations. But, what I'm looking for is a CD player that has a karaoke sound mode. I've seen one before many years ago. It had the dual tape deck, cd disc player, am/fm tuner just like your run of the mill CD player. Only difference was it had a mode that would take the voices out of any song that was played on CD. You didn't need any CD+G formatted disc, just pop in your favorite music CD, choose the "karaoke" option, and it would play the songs minus vocals.

To anyone's recollection, are these still available new?

There are some electronics stores that carry them but that's becuase I was in Japan.

Is there a Japantown in Houston? In the event that there is i would check that out.
