Music Magic mode can only be used on songs

as well as the songs you choose on your own
music player. It turns down the main vocal
track on most songs, allowing you to take the
lead and sing along to the music like a star.

mode.
Music Magic mode:
Reduce the main vocal track from songs*.
Normal mode:

*Note: The Music Magic feature may not
work for all songs. Its effectiveness varies
depending on the song. For best results,
studio recorded songs in stereo rather than
mono are recommended. Unfortunately we
cannot guarantee Music Magic will work with
every song. We do not recommend using
Music Magic mode with mono recordings or
live concert performances, etc.
