Who hasn't stood in front of the mirror singing into a make-believe microphone – a.k.a. hair brush – at least once in his or her life? Even before American Idol ever aired, the fantasy of being a famous singer was shared by many people. The latest device to help you fulfill your pop star fantasies gets your music player involved in this popular pastime. If singing at the top of your lungs while listening to your iPod or MP3 player isn't enough for you, check out the SingStand from Memorex.
All you do is plug your iPod or MP3 player into the SingStand, and you are on your way to singing to your heart's content. The unit includes a full-sized microphone, stand and speakers, into which you dock your music player. The Memorex SingStand is not just a microphone and speaker system; it also has built-in vocal effects, with echo and balance control. Auto Voice Control (AVC) Technology helps to regulate and reduce the voice track on your music player, so that yours are the only golden tonsils that anyone hears. The two 4-watt stereo speakers, located in the base of the stand, are powerful enough to project your most raucous lyrics.
If you're not too much of a diva, you can share your living room stage with another singer by using the secondary microphone input. The SingStand comes with one microphone, so your duet partner will need to provide his or her own. There are also standard RCA input jacks for a keyboard, guitar or any other instrument that plugs into an amplifier. So if you want to impress your friends with your voice and your musical stylings, go for it! The Memorex SingStand even looks professional – or as professional as you can look singing along to your iPod. If your neighbors were hoping that karaoke would be going out of style any time soon, they're in for a big shock. Now you can sing along to all your favorite music, not just the tunes that you can find on karaoke CDs.
The Memorex SingStand can be used with an iPod, MP3 player or any device with a headphone jack and a 3.5mm line-in connection. The Memorex SingStand comes with microphone/digital audio player holder, one dynamic 10 ft corded microphone and a 3 piece adjustable pole. It is available for purchase for approximately $70.00 plus shipping at ememorex.com and Amazon.com.
