I got one for Christmas but haven't really had time to play with it yet, but 
from what I've read and looked at, it should be awesome. I do know one thing 
or at least I think I know one thing and that is this: You apparently cannot 
strip the vocal track off an original CD and burn a copy sans vocal track, then 
take the karaoke CD you burned and add your own voice or harp or sax or what 
ever onto the new CD. In other words I can't take Mick Jagger's voice and harp 
off a Stones song like Midnight Rambler and add my own voice and harp then 
record a CD of my own to see how I would sound singing and playing harp with the 
Stones. 

However, I think, but I am not sure about this, that I can hook up a 
microphone to one of the outlets, hit the vocal depression switch, the record button, 
then play along with the original and burn a copy of myself playing over the 
original. In this mode if I screw up I have to start all over again with a new 
CD copy, there is apparently no way that I have found, to keep practicing over 
and over until you get what you want, except to just play along with the 
original at various speeds then when you feel comfortable, burn a copy of yourself 
playing along in real time with the original while the lead track is 
depressed. Even with the lead track depressed, you can still hear the lead track deep 
in the background. But I may be wrong and just don't know the tricks of the 
machine yet. Any insight on this machine would be greatly appreciated.

So, I can't make my own karaoke records for practice or performance purposes, 
But I can play along with the machine while depressing the lead vocal track. 
I don't know if instrumental songs or solo ninstruments like jazz sax players 
are on their own lead track or not, so that the horn could be depressed the 
same way you depress the lead vocals, but I will find out shortly when I am 
finished with my current project and have time to really get to know the machine.

anybody else?
