Wir haben hart daran gearbeitet, MyKaraoke Video für dich zu verbessern, und in letzter Zeit viele Neuerungen veröffentlicht: so viele neue Funktionen und Verbesserungen, dass eine vollständige Auflistung ein sehr langes Änderungsprotokoll ergeben würde. Hier sind also die Highlights.
Die größte Neuerung: Das Transkribieren deiner Songs kostet jetzt deutlich weniger. Außerdem hast du mehr Kontrolle über die Momente rund um deine Liedtexte, kannst Titelkarten für deine Videos erstellen und profitierst von einigen praktischen Verbesserungen am Editor und Dashboard.
Der Generator mit nur einem Klick bietet jetzt zwei Transkriptions-Engines. Die günstigere ist standardmäßig ausgewählt:
Standard: 1 Credit pro Minute. Eine gute Wahl für die meisten Songs.
Premium: 5 Credits pro Minute. Empfohlen für komplexen, vielschichtigen oder schnellen Gesang.
Beide Engines erkennen die Sprache des Songs automatisch, du musst sie also nicht vorher auswählen. Bei Songs mit dichtem Begleittrack aktiviere Aus isoliertem Gesang transkribieren.
Öffne Cues & Timers im Video-Editor, um die Momente rund um deinen Liedtext zu gestalten.
Vorlauf in Classic oder im neuen Stil Fade Tail – bei jeder Zeile oder nur nach Pausen.
Countdowns für Pausen, ein Song-Fortschrittsbalken und ein Pausen-Fortschrittsbalken, jeweils mit eigener Dauer, Position, Größe und Farbe. Einige Farben können sich nach dem nächsten Sänger richten.
Liedtext während Pausen ausblenden blendet den Liedtext bei längeren Pausen aus und vor der nächsten Zeile wieder ein.
Cue-Einstellungen werden pro Videoversion gespeichert, und deine bestehenden Projekte behalten ihre bisherigen Einstellungen.
Beginne dein Video mit einer Titelkarte, auf der Songtitel und Künstler ganz nach deinem Geschmack gestaltet sind. Füge Künstler hinzu und ordne sie unter Projekt bearbeiten; wenn du einen Titel wie „Künstler – Song“ einfügst, werden beide Felder automatisch ausgefüllt. Beginnt dein Liedtext früher, wird die Karte verkürzt (auf mindestens zwei Sekunden) und ein Hinweis erklärt dir warum.
Auf Tablets und in schmalen Fenstern stapelt der Editor den Player jetzt über den Einstellungen, sodass du beides gleichzeitig anpassen und ansehen kannst. Player und Zeitleiste lassen sich in der Größe verändern, und die Tabs können seitlich gescrollt werden.
Sortiere das Dashboard nach Neueste, Älteste, Kürzlich bearbeitet oder Am längsten nicht bearbeitet. Die Liste zeigt jetzt sowohl das Erstellungs- als auch das Bearbeitungsdatum an. Während du suchst, werden die Ergebnisse nach Relevanz sortiert.
Wie immer: Wenn du dir etwas wünschst, lass es uns auf unserem Feedback-Portal wissen.
Danke fürs Mitsingen!

Ever found the perfect song on YouTube but got stuck trying to download it before you could make a karaoke video?
Not anymore. 
Instead of downloading a YouTube video first, you can now paste the video link directly into the 1-Click Generator.
We'll automatically:
Import the audio
Separate the vocals
Generate and sync the lyrics
Only the audio is imported from the YouTube video. The original video is not used in your karaoke project, so you'll still choose your own background or visuals just like when uploading an audio file.
The generation process is exactly the same as uploading your own audio file—just much faster and more convenient.
Copy a supported YouTube video URL and paste it into the 1-Click Generator.
A preview will appear instantly so you can verify you've selected the correct song before generating.
Once you click Generate, we'll automatically:
Extract the audio in the cloud
Separate the vocals from the instrumental
Generate synchronized lyrics
Create your karaoke project
The YouTube video itself is not imported—only its audio is used to generate your karaoke project.
Everything happens automatically, so there's nothing to download or convert.
If you already have your own audio file, you can continue using the upload workflow as before.
Choose whichever method works best for you:
Paste a YouTube video link
Upload your own audio file
Generating a karaoke project from a YouTube video costs 1 credit per minute of the video.
Before generation starts, you'll always see the estimated credit cost, so there are no surprises.
Uploading your own audio files remains free.
The feature works with supported public YouTube videos.
If a video can't be processed due to restrictions or availability, you'll be notified before generation begins.
Creating karaoke projects has never been easier.
Find your favorite song on YouTube, paste the link into the 1-Click Generator, and let MyKaraoke Video do the rest.
We can't wait to see what you create!

AI Transcription is now half the cost, you can click words directly in the Lyrics Editor preview to fix them, and we've aligned credit costs with our providers. Here's everything in this update.
AI Transcription now costs 5 credits per minute, down from 10.
We're making transcription the recommended way to sync your lyrics. When you use AI Transcription, our AI listens to your audio and generates word-level timestamps directly from what it hears — this produces the most accurate sync possible, especially for songs with complex vocals, harmonies, or fast-paced lyrics.
The tradeoff is that the AI may occasionally mishear a word, but fixing a misheard word is quick and easy compared to manually adjusting dozens of timing points in an inaccurate sync.
When you're in the Lyrics Editor (formerly known as Sync Editor) and spot a word that looks wrong in the video preview, you can now click it directly to edit it. Clicking a word pauses playback and opens the word editor right away.
Previously, you had to find the word in the lyrics timeline below, scroll to the right line, and then open the editor. This makes fixing misheard words from AI Transcription much faster — you see it, you click it, you fix it.
Credit costs are now always rounded up to the nearest minute. For example, a 1m 20s video now costs 2 credits instead of 1, and a 2m 05s video costs 3 instead of 2. Very short videos under a minute still cost 1 credit minimum.
This change aligns our billing with how our partners and providers charge us — they all round up to the nearest minute too. This makes our pricing more predictable and consistent across the board.
Transparent background exports will cost 1 credit per minute and files will be stored for 24 hours instead of 30 days. This is a very resource-intensive codec that produces huge files — often multiple gigabytes. We run a dedicated rendering system just to handle these, so we're unable to continue offering them at no cost. And given the file sizes, we can only keep them available for 24 hours instead of the usual 30 days.
One of our most requested features is finally coming. While the MP3+CDG format can't include all the visual features that MyKaraoke Video offers, we know many of you rely on legacy karaoke machines that only support this format. We're working on adding the ability to export an MP3+CDG file from any project.

You can now choose a background color for the Highlight effect, which will emphasize the current word. This new option works seamlessly with the existing color settings.
An image is worth a thousand words, but a video is worth a thousand images. Take a look below:
Happy creating!

We're excited to introduce Volume Automation — a powerful new addition to the Advanced Editor that gives you full control over the volume of each audio track throughout your video.
You can now adjust the volume of the Instrumental, Backing Vocals, and Lead Vocals tracks independently at any point in the timeline. Create smooth fade-ins, fade-outs, drop the vocals during a solo, or boost the instrumental for dramatic effect — all with a few clicks.
Click anywhere on a track's automation lane to add a keyframe
Drag keyframes to adjust volume and timing
Ctrl/Cmd + Click a keyframe to remove it
Reset a track with the trash bin icon to go back to a flat volume
Volume Automation is available in the Advanced Editor. Simply enable the Advanced Editor toggle in your project to get started.
For a full walkthrough, check out our help center article.
Volume Automation
Volume Automation gives you precise control over the volume of each audio track — Instrumental, Backing Vocals, and Lead Vocals — at any point in the timeline. Instead of a single, fixed volume level for an entire track, you can raise and lower each track dynamically throughout your video.

We’ve been hard at work since our big editor revamp, and guess what? We didn’t stand still! We’ve kept the momentum going, rolling out a fresh wave of updates designed to give you even more creative control and a smoother editing experience. Here’s the rundown:
Take control of your visuals! You can now adjust the opacity of your background images and videos. This means perfect blending, subtle effects, or creating unique layered looks by combining transparent visuals with solid color backgrounds!
Your lyrics deserve their own stage! Add custom background colors or pre-set gradients behind your lyrics, and fine-tune their transparency with opacity controls specifically for these lyric backgrounds. It’s all about enhancing readability and personalizing your text like never before!
Get your song pacing just right. We've added the ability to configure the time gap for lead-in bars. Now you can set exactly how long to wait before a lead-in appears during instrumental breaks, ensuring a more natural flow.
Elevate your titles and headings! In the Advanced Editor, you can now add shadow effects to your text elements. Customize the shadow's position, color, distance, and blur for a professional, dimensional look.
Editing just got way more forgiving! Both our basic and advanced editors, plus the sync editor, now feature classic Undo and Redo buttons, complete with familiar hotkeys (Ctrl+Z/ ⌘+Z for Undo, Ctrl+Shift+Z/ ⌘+Shift+Z for Redo). Experiment freely knowing you can always go back!
Plus, we’ve been busy with a whole lot more under-the-hood updates, including a significant improvement to our "unsaved changes" detection across all editors (including the sync lyric editor)! This means no more accidental data loss when switching menus or refreshing pages – your work is better protected.
We’re thrilled to bring you these enhancements and can't wait to see what amazing videos you create with them!
Let us know what you think, We would love your feedback!
