If you don’t have the money to invest in a karaoke machine and CD+G discs, you can use PowerPoint to create your own karaoke files that will play on your computer or television. Before you get started, however, make sure you have an MP3 version of your song track and prepare to spend a bit of time animating your text, if choose to do so.
Insert the Audio File
1. Rip a song from your favorite CD to your computer. Create a stereo MP3 file.
2. Remove the vocals from any CD rips. You can use the open-source Audacity, which works on Windows, Mac and Linux computers. Import the MP3. Click the drop-down arrow next to the file name and split the stereo track into a left and right channel. Select the entire right track, and then, from the Effects menu, choose Invert. Finally, set both tracks to Mono by clicking the drop-down arrow next the file name for each. Export to a new MP3 file.
3. Open PowerPoint and select the side where the music should begin. If your song has an instrumental introduction, you may want to start it on the title slide; if lyrics begin immediately, you may want to start on the first slide after the title slide.
4. Click Audio on the Insert tab. Select Audio on My PC. Navigate to your audio file and double-click it to select it. For now, we will insert the original audio file with vocals. This will make it easier to align our text animation with the song.
5. Click Play in Background on the Playback tab to make sure the song plays across all slides in your file.
Add Lyrics
1. Create a new slide and insert a text box. Set the font to about 42 points and use a crisp font that will be easy to read on the screen.
2. Paste the first word of the song in the text box. Create a new text box for each word of the first one or two lines of your song if you want to animate the text to change color along with the music. Otherwise, you can paste the first one or two lines of the song in a single text box. If you need help with your lyrics, check a popular online lyrics database such as AZLyrics, Song Lyrics or MetroLyrics.
3. Apply text animation to the first text box by clicking it and then selecting an effect such as Font Color from the Animations tab. Be sure to choose an animation that changes the color of the text in some way without distorting it. Make sure you set the transition on the Transition tab to On Mouse Click. Repeat for each word’s text box on the slide.
4. Repeat that process to create new one- or two-line lyric slides through the end of the song. To save time, you can duplicate your first lyric slide so that the transition and animation is already applied to the text boxes. Optionally add an ending slide, as well, if there is a long instrumental at the end of your song.
5. Click the title slide to select it. On the Slide Show tab, click Rehearse Timings. As soon as the lyrics begin, advance the slide. As each word is sung, click your mouse to animate the next text box, and advance slides through the end of the song. Close the timer, choosing to apply the rehearsed timings.
6. Click the title slide to select it. Change the slide transition time on the Transition tab to 3 or 4 seconds before the audio starts by subtracting it from the timing in the After text box.
7. Play the presentation to ensure your text animations synchronize with the music. Adjust where necessary by changing the timing in the After field on the Transition tab.
Insert the Instrumental Audio
1. Return to the title slide to select and delete the audio file. Since you want to sing along to the music, we need to insert the instrumental version instead.
2. Click Audio on the Insert tab. Select Audio on My PC. Navigate to and select your instrumental audio file.
3. Click Play in Background on the Playback tab to make sure the song plays across all slides in your file.
Convert to Video
1. Download and install the free RZ PowerPoint Converter to your computer. You can also choose other converters, including the Xilisoft PowerPoint converters (free and paid versions) and the imTOO PowerPoint to MP4 Converter. If using another converter, follow the instructions provided with your software.
2. Open RZ PowerPoint Converter and add your PowerPoint karaoke presentation to the queue. To add the file, click Add, locate it on your hard drive and double-click it.
3. Select the Convert to Video Files option and select the Target Format. MP4 files can store multimedia files, such as music and animated text, in a single container. Since it’s a reliable format that requires little bandwidth for playback, it’s a great option for your karaoke files. This option ensures your file will play on computers, DVD players and mobile devices.
4. Click Next to set Export settings. Select your Target Folder for the MP4 file, and then Start the conversion. You can burn your new MP4 to DVD to play on your TV or play it right on your computer.
Tips and Warnings
Align text boxes in PowerPoint by selecting all of the text boxes on a line to select them, and then clicking the Align button on the Format tab and choosing Align Top. You may use other alignment and arrangement selections as necessary.
These instructions use PowerPoint 2013. Steps may vary slightly for other versions. PowerPoint Online has many of the same features.
