You have a voice and a right to let it out. Even though others may not want you to do it. Vizio, the budget TV brand, is telling consumers they can have a karaoke room experience and annoy the neighbors at the same time. New company Mick me It combines Vizio’s existing soundbar technology with an external microphone station for when you, or perhaps your kids, want to fill your entire home with different sounds. Hot to go!
The $350 MicMe has a white finish, but it looks similar to the company’s 30-inch 2.1 soundbar released earlier this year. Like that product, the MicMe also comes with a relatively small wireless subwoofer. A big reason that makes this better than other soundbars is because of the separate microphone stand. Includes two wireless stick microphones and a charging base station.
According to Vizio, when you pick up one of the microphones, the soundbar immediately switches to karaoke mode and plays the sound from your TV and microphone. You can adjust microphone and soundbar settings individually through the Vizio app. This means you can adjust pitch correction, add echo effects, change the color of the stick mic’s LED, and more. Like Vizio’s other soundbars, the white MicMe supports Dolby Atmos and DTS:X.
The TV manufacturer is promoting a karaoke app for iOS and Android. To this end, Vizio is adapting the song selection from the music streaming app Stingray. Vizio’s karaoke app has over 80,000 tracks, but of course they’re also available on other music streaming services like YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Music. I have personal experience singing with Apple Music’s pseudo-karaoke feature, but if you’re brave enough to hear the end result, I recommend covering your ears.
Judging from the browser base, stingray karaoke On the site, the current selection of music genres on the app is not very extensive and includes genres such as “Pop”, “Rock”, and “Christian”. There’s an entire section dedicated to Disney songs and movie soundtracks. barbie movie and the greatest showman.
Each stick mic is said to have a battery life of about 8 hours, but that doesn’t mean the mic is far from the base station. If you can spend an entire day at work doing nothing but singing songs in front of the TV, you’re truly living the ideal life.
The soundbar should also work with other TVs connected via eARC HDMI, but of course Vizio is promoting this soundbar for its own TVs. MicMe is compatible with the mounting points on the base of Vizio TVs, which the company calls its “QuickFit” system.
I had positive feelings about Vizio’s $170 2.1 soundbar, and thought it had enough bass sound to fill a living room for the price. It remains to be seen if the MicMe will have the same sound quality as the 2.1, but if you’re paying $350, you’ll want to see if you or your family use another stick mic. If your kids start acting wild, don’t say I didn’t warn you leave me alone Repeat for hours until you want to put the soundbar out the window.
The $350 MicMe is expected to begin shipping around the end of November.
