Are you using an effects package, either on your mixer or a separate unit.

You have the microphones plugged into a channel on the mixing amp, not into the karaoke player, correct?

#1: The mics should be plugged into the mixer.

#2: I suggest the following settings for the vocal/mic channel:

Set High and Mid to about 2 o'clock.

Set Low to 9 o'clock.

These settings will sound better for the typical singer, but may need to be tweaked a bit for guys with real husky voices (cut more of the low knob) or girls with real squeaky voices (cut the high, mids and raise the low a bit).

That might help you.

If not, let us know what options you have on the channel where the microphone is plugged in, and we should be able to help. Good luck!

What are the models/makes of the mics? Have you ever cleaned the mic screens? Over years of use they can collect alot of spit & other gunk, unscrew the mic screens & carefully pull the foam out of it & clean them in hot soapy water.

And again, do you have an effects package?
