Does anyone know of a person or company that can make short, quick, jingles to play at my show? Things like, "Welcome to ___ Karaoke Night", Etc... Any info is appreciated. Thank you.

Do you mean something specific to your show or something more generic?

Why not make your own?

I have to agree with Lonman. Hiring it done could be a large and unrecoverable expense unless you are planning to resell the jingles.

I purchase a lot of the backings I use for clients from these guys

they are reasonably priced and royalty free. there are also some cool efx there as well.

My clients are happy with the quality and the price.

Sound Choice and Zoom both have utility discs.

using the karaoke builder software, you can make the initial splash screens. Using the software, you make a .bin file out of it.

Either convert them to a .mp3+g file or keep them as .bin and burn a disc with them.

I've gotten pretty good at making them on the fly at a show.

Type up the screen with mspaint.
Load that .bmp in as a image file for karaoke builder.
convert it to .cdg.
Use their tool to make that .cdg with a .bin.
and since I'm computer based, I converted the .bin to a .mp3+g with mp3toolz.

Note: You can merge sound files with the .cdg when you make the .bin but I stopped doing that a long time ago. Was funny a few times when I did a singer's screen with "Jeanie" and I had as the background music "I dream of Jeanie"... but the novelty wore off, and I didn't want to make individual music screens for everyone. Since I began using clubdjpro for my playing software, I can do any screens and any music at the same time with the dual player software.

MOSTLY what I use the screens for are singer intros, or club advertisements, birthdays, applause dammit, etc. Since I have my logo on many of the screens, it's truly, uniquely mine!
