Mic’s Music Player: music playlists, lyrics, karaoke and listening parties guide

Mic's Music Player is a browser music library, personal playlist player and karaoke app at music.micstec.com. Find songs by title, artist or lyrics, follow and adjust timed lyrics, sing over instrumentals, record a performance, pair a phone for private original vocals, or run a KTV Party with a shared stage and song requests. Dig song imports additional recordings into the shared library.

Start listening and find your way around

1. Open the player and allow the library to load.
2. Choose a song on Home or Your Library. Tap Play if the browser does not start audio automatically.
3. Use the bottom player while browsing other pages.
4. Open Karaoke for prepared instrumentals, Dig song for external search/import, or KTV Party for a room.
5. Open your profile or sign in with Google if you want an account that you can use on other devices.

On desktop, the sidebar contains navigation and playlists. On phones the navigation and player are compact. The app keeps a guest identity for the browser; it is not the same as a portable registered account. Interface language and theme controls change presentation without changing the music files.

Every screenshot here is from an isolated demo library with invented song titles, artists, covers, lyrics and accounts. Audio is synthetic. The images do not expose the production music collection. Browser microphone checks use a simulated input; physical microphone quality and Bluetooth delay were not measured.

Search the library and browse categories

The quick filter searches songs already in the shared library. It is separate from Dig song's external search.

1. Enter text in Type to filter songs....
2. Choose Search field: All, Title, Artist, Album, Year, Genre or Lyrics.
3. Select a result to play it. A remembered lyric can be enough when the title is unknown.
4. Clear the input and choose All to return to the complete view.

In Your Library, choose category cards to narrow the collection. Show more reveals additional categories and Show less collapses them. Category labels can be bilingual; songs may belong to several categories. A selected category combines with the text filter, so clear both if expected results are missing.

Use page numbers, Previous, Next or Go to page for long lists. Loading titles can take time while metadata arrives. Empty results can mean a narrow category/filter rather than an empty server library.

Use playback controls, timer and range

The player displays song ID, elapsed/duration and session time. Share links can open a particular ID, for example /music/?song=124; the target must still exist in the server library.

Open Sleep Timer and select 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes, or Off. The remaining time is shown while active. Choose Off to cancel a timer before leaving a long listening session.

Song Range limits playback to numeric IDs. Fill From and To, choose Save, and check the active-range indication. Clear removes the restriction. A leftover range can explain why Next or shuffle keeps returning to a small part of the library.

Read lyrics and correct timing

Timed lyrics show the current line and follow the recording. A word-timed source can highlight individual words. Plain Manual lyrics have no precise timing; scrolling them cannot create synchronized cues.

Choose Synced or Manual when the song provides the options, and use the auto-scroll toggle to control following. Selecting a timed lyric line seeks playback to that point.

To correct a consistent delay:

1. Open Adjust lyric timing.
2. Choose First sung line. Introductory credits and blank lines are skipped by default, but check the selection.
3. Enter Singing starts at (seconds), or tap Starts now when that line begins.
4. In Fine-tune offset, choose Earlier or Later in 0.5-second steps, or enter the correction directly.
5. Use Reset to restore the source timing.

Positive lyric offsets delay the words; negative offsets advance them. The chosen line and correction are saved per song in this browser and apply to both regular lyrics and the singing guide, including cue countdowns and replay targets. They do not edit the audio or original lyric file.

Save favorites and manage playlists

The heart marks favorites locally. A playlist is a named collection; removing a song from a playlist does not remove the recording from the shared library.

1. Choose Create Playlist, enter Playlist Name, and open it.
2. Choose Add songs, search Search songs or artists, check matching rows and choose Add (n).
3. Alternatively, use a song's Add to Playlist action and choose a destination.
4. Use Remove from Playlist to remove an entry.
5. Open Playlist actions → Rename to change the title, or Delete Playlist to remove a non-default list after confirmation.

The default list is marked Default and cannot be deleted through the normal delete action. Existing songs are skipped when adding duplicates. The add dialog may show only its first 200 matching results; refine the query for a long library.

Check Saved on this device versus Synced to your account. Registered playlists come from the signed-in account; guest playlists come from local storage. Changing identity can change which lists you see. Do not assume guest lists or favorite marks automatically become account-wide data.

Share a song and customize the visualizer

Choose Share Song, add an optional message, and use Share on browsers with native sharing or Copy link. The link refers to a library song ID; it does not send a standalone audio file. Cancel closes the share form.

The visualizer can appear after a period of inactivity during playback. Open Visualizer Settings for Bars, Circle, Wave, Galaxy, Fountain or Terrain. Color schemes include Spotify Green, Rainbow, Blue Waves and Fire. Adjust background opacity and bar height, or turn off Show visualization. Close the view or move the pointer to regain the normal controls.

Sing with prepared instrumentals

1. Open Karaoke. It lists songs whose instrumental files are ready.
2. Choose Turn on, then Sing on a song.
3. Follow Get ready, Sing in …, Sing now and Up next cues.
4. Choose Karaoke / Original to change the main player's audio without losing its position.
5. Use Replay line for a two-second lead-in, Next line to advance, or select a line in the expanded lyric list.

Instrumentals are prepared in advance; turning on karaoke does not remove vocals live from any arbitrary recording. No instrumental for this song means preparation is absent. Recently imported songs may need background processing before appearing here. Automatic line/word timing depends on a timed source; manual lyrics remain plain text.

Use the expanded stage and requested-song queue

Expand singing guide opens a larger stage/fullscreen view where supported. The toolbar keeps Play, Pause, Stop, Next, Karaoke / Original, and Random / ID ↓ available. Stop resets to the beginning; ID ↓ traverses higher IDs toward lower IDs. Choosing a traversal order clears repeat-one; selecting ID ↓ also clears an older saved ID range unless you deliberately set one again.

Search / browse opens a paginated list of ready songs with IDs, Add to queue and Sing now. Requested songs play in request order ahead of the normal shuffle/repeat traversal. Sing now starts a selection immediately.

To add a batch, choose Select songs to add together, tick songs or Select page, then Add selected (n). Selection survives filtering and page changes. Duplicate requests are skipped and the requested queue has a 50-song limit; any items not added remain selected. Clear selection resets the selection. The queue's Remove controls remove pending requests.

Full lyrics opens an inline scrollable list that follows the current line without replacing the toolbar. Hide cover / Show cover controls the background, with the choice remembered. The queue, pairing area and visualization settings remain accessible; narrow screens arrange them below the lyrics.

Choose, test and monitor a microphone

1. Allow microphone access on the HTTPS player.
2. Choose Microphone device; System default follows the browser/device default.
3. Choose Test mic and speak. Its level meter should move; this test does not send sound to the speakers.
4. Use Record 3s test clip to check a short recording, then Stop test when done.
5. Choose Turn on mic for live monitoring and adjust Mic volume and Reverb. Turn off mic stops monitoring.

Use headphones to prevent speaker feedback. A browser may need permission before revealing device names. If changing a USB microphone or audio output, check the selected device and repeat the test.

Record and download your singing

When karaoke mode is enabled and a prepared song is selected, the floating Record control is available across player pages.

1. Select the song, allow the microphone and start playback.
2. Choose Record to capture the microphone mixed with the music.
3. Choose Stop & save.
4. Listen with the result's audio controls and choose Download MP3 to retain the recording.

Closing a popover or page is not a download. Save the result before leaving. The floating recorder is separate from KTV Party's room audio; it is hidden when party audio owns playback. Browser support and microphone permission determine availability.

Pair a phone for private original vocals

This two-device karaoke feature is separate from KTV Party room membership.

1. On the main player, choose Pair vocal guide.
2. On the second device, scan its QR invitation or enter the six-digit Quick pairing code in Pair with a karaoke player, then choose Pair device.
3. Choose Start vocal guide on that device. Wear headphones to hear the original vocals privately while the main player plays the instrumental.
4. Adjust Guide volume and Guide timing. Increase the timing value if the guide sounds late; decrease it if early.

The guide follows main-player play/pause, seeks, speed and song changes. It can search by Song, artist or ID, Add to queue, Sing now, remove requests, and use remote Play, Pause, Stop song, Skip song and the position control when permitted. The guide always plays the original recording even when the main player changes between Karaoke and Original.

Name the phone with This device's name → Save. The main player's Paired devices list shows device name, verified app username and connection state. Allow controls can be turned off while listening remains available. Removing a device revokes its access and refreshes the invitation. Up to ten guide devices can pair.

Stop guide on this device stops local listening. Leaving saves the pairing so Return to paired karaoke can reopen it, but a fresh tap is needed for audio. Repair audio · keep this song attempts recovery without skipping. Active listening, controls and searches renew activity; an untouched device expires after 30 minutes. Main-player reload, End pairing, session expiry or entering KTV Party can require a new pairing. Keep both pages connected for continuous synchronization.

Find and import recordings with Dig song

1. Open Dig song, enter a title or artist and choose Search.
2. Read each version's verification label. Use Previous / Next for result pages.
3. Choose Play to preview the selected recording and lyrics before importing. Pause, Cancel preview or Close preview stops/closes that preview.
4. Choose Add to library on the exact version you want.
5. Wait for the success message and In library · #ID link; open it to play the imported track.

Include unavailable versions (try anyway) reveals hidden failures. Source availability can change after checking; a label is not a promise of complete playback. Search results expire, so search again if the app says they have expired. The service accepts searches up to 200 characters and recordings up to 100 MB.

If synchronized lyrics are missing, Add lyrics to continue offers plain text up to 20,000 characters. Add with these lyrics saves them; Add using title only proceeds with the title as non-synced lyrics; Cancel — do not add leaves the library unchanged. The title becomes the first line automatically. Plain text does not acquire fabricated timing.

Imported recordings become shared library content. Poster, metadata and instrumental processing run in the background; playback can be available before karaoke preparation finishes. Check status again refreshes an import whose result is uncertain. The library checks for existing versions rather than deliberately adding duplicates. Import only material you have the right to use.

Create a KTV Party and admit guests

1. Open KTV Party, enter Room name and Your name.
2. Enable Host approves new guests if needed, then Create room.
3. Under People → Invite friends, share the eight-character Invitation code, QR or Copy invite link.
4. Guests choose Join room → Enter invitation code, enter their name, and join. They do not need a Google account.
5. When approval is enabled, guests see Waiting for host approval until a host/co-host approves them in People.

Get a new code invalidates the old invitation. Your rooms lets you return to existing memberships. Invitations admit a person; the separate Pair another device flow adds a device to an existing membership.

Request songs, accept nominations and start a turn

The controller has Songs, Queue, Sing and People tabs.

1. In Songs, choose Who will sing this song?, then search available karaoke songs.
2. Choose Add song for a normal request or Request next for host-approved priority.
3. A request for another person waits for Accept song; that singer can Decline song.
4. In Queue, the host chooses Invite singer for the selected request.
5. In Sing, the singer chooses I'm ready to sing, or Decline turn.
6. Prepare the stage/audio, then start the shared countdown.

Move next overrides fair order; Return to fair order removes that override. Approve next approves a priority request. Assign singer reassigns a request, and Remove removes an editable queued entry. A selected singer invitation can be cancelled without deleting its queued song. Requests can be held when a singer leaves.

Set up the room speaker and recover audio

1. Choose Open stage screen on the TV/laptop or shared display.
2. On that screen, choose Enable stage audio. A user gesture is required to unlock audio.
3. On a host/co-host controller, select that enabled screen under Room speaker.
4. Confirm the singer's readiness, choose Prepare selected song, wait for Audio prepared, then Start countdown.
5. Use Pause song, Resume with countdown or Skip song as required.

With Automatic playback enabled, preparation/start proceeds when the singer, room speaker and any required guide are ready. It pauses at an unmet requirement; read the status before repeatedly pressing controls. Other stage screens remain silent unless designated.

The selected singer can Enable private vocal guide for headphones, set guide volume/timing, and choose Require my vocal guide for this song. If required, the room waits for that phone and pauses for recovery if it fails. Make the guide optional to continue without it, or recover it and Resume with countdown.

If an output disconnects, enable audio again and reselect the stage. Retry audio preparation, Confirm output and retry, and Reset for new headphones address specific recovery states. Connection details and Audio timing and health show browser/network estimates, not a physical measurement of speakers. Bluetooth/TV latency still needs a listening check.

Manage party members, devices and room settings

Under Pair another device, choose Shared screen for a view without controls/invitation details or Phone controls for your membership's allowed controls. Create pairing code creates a short-lived, single-use code; a new one cancels the previous one. On the other device choose Pair another device, enter it and Connect device. Up to two additional devices can join a membership. Connected devices → Disconnect revokes one.

If the host disconnects, co-host controls remain available and ownership can transfer after a grace period. Without a moderator, the queue is preserved and playback waits. Keep screen awake requests browser wake lock but may be refused by the operating system.

Use online performance when configured

Some deployments enable an additional Online performance panel. These options were checked in the current source; the isolated room used for these screenshots has no media service, so an actual remote performance was not tested.

The host can choose Local room, Online singer, or Local room + remote audience when playback is idle. Online/hybrid listeners choose Watch and listen, then Enable received audio if browser autoplay is blocked.

For the performing device:

1. Wait for your selected turn and prepared song.
2. Under Prepare your performing device, choose Microphone + clean backing, or in hybrid mode Mixer with backing already included when the mixer feed already contains the music.
3. Set Backing correction and, for clean microphone mode, confirm headphones.
4. Choose Enable microphone and prepare and wait for readiness before the host starts.
5. Adjust Audience backing level and Audience microphone level as appropriate.

The audience receives a live mix with lyric video. Listen to original vocals privately changes the performer's headphone monitor while excluding those original vocals from the digital audience mix. Headphones prevent acoustic pickup. Capture stops when leaving, hiding or pausing the page, or changing turns. After changing input/output or correction, prepare capture again. Stop streaming on this device ends this device's stream/listening role.

Edit your profile and use administration

Open My profile to set Username (3–20 letters, digits or underscores, unique), Display name, About me and an avatar. Use Change avatar or Remove avatar, then save. Google-registered profiles can be used across devices; the guest hint explains when the identity is device-based.

Administrators see Admin:

Purging accounts is permanent and protects the current administrator. These are operator functions; the guide review did not launch production ingest jobs or purge production users.

Install, update and play in the background

Use Install App when offered or the browser's installation/Home Screen action. Update Available → Update refreshes the app. Lock-screen media controls and background playback depend on browser/OS support and permissions.

Cached original recordings can help with offline/background listening, but this does not download the entire library. Instrumentals, external searches and party connections can still require the network. Android power management can suspend long playback; review battery restrictions for the browser or installed app if that happens.

Profiles, playlists, requests and imported recordings involve server data; language, theme, lyric offsets, guest lists and cache choices are browser-specific. Recording requires microphone access, and online performance sends a live microphone mix. No app-store listing or rendered promo/tutorial video was found in the reviewed player repository.
