3. Connecting Your Tablet for Music and Lyrics

• Connect the Tablet: Use an RCA to AUX cable to connect your tablet to the mixer. Plug the RCA end into the RCA input on the back of the mixer and the other end into your tablet’s headphone or AUX output.
• Adjust the Volume: Raise the CD and tape volume on the front of the mixer to hear the music coming through the speakers.
• Play Karaoke Songs: Open the YouTube app on your tablet, search for any karaoke song, and the lyrics will appear on your screen while the music plays through the speakers.

4. Using Effects for Extra Flair
