- Use the polarized plug (or grounding plug) cautiously. These plugs are designed for safety purposes. Consult an electrician if the provided plug does not fit your outlet.
- Safeguard the power cord to prevent it from being walked on or pinched, particularly at the plug, wall outlet, and connection to the machine.
- Unplug the Singfinity S-68 during lightning storms or when not in use for extended periods.

Detailed Usage Guide
Machine
How to charge the Singfinity S-68
Plug the power Adapter into the DC15V charging port (8) on the control panel and into a polarized wall outlet. Make sure to fully charge the device before each use. The indicator light will turn on to show it’s charging.
How to turn the machine on/off
Turning the Singfinity S-68 on/off: Press the Power switch (42) towards the side labeled “On” to turn the device on. To turn it off, press the same switch towards the side labeled “Off.”
How to adjust the machine’s touch-screen tablet
The touch-screen tablet is attached to the karaoke machine and cannot be removed. To adjust its position, simply flip it up from its resting position and rotate it to the desired angle.
Note that while the screen can rotate in any direction, it cannot turn a full 360 degrees. Once the screen can no longer rotate easily, do not force it as doing so may cause damage or even break the screen off from the machine.
Reminder: Although the tablet can face any direction according to the user’s preference, it initially faces the back of the machine when first unlocked from its docking station. To have the tablet face the front, gently rotate it 180° so that it faces the same direction as the speaker.
Microphone
How to turn the microphone on/off
Press the square button with a Power symbol on each of the microphones to turn them on or off.
How to replace the microphone batteries
Unscrew the bottom half of the microphone and insert batteries into the slots. Screw the cover back on and proceed to power on the microphone as directed above.
How to adjust the microphone volume
To set the volume level for the microphones, turn the knob labeled “Mic Vol” (13) on the control panel of your Singfinity S-68 to the desired volume level.
How to use PA and Mic Priority modes
To set the Singfinity S-68 to PA Mode, press the button ‘Speech. M’ (30) on the control panel.
Mic Priority mode automatically lowers the volume of the music to an almost inaudible level when someone begins speaking into the microphone.
To turn Mic Priority mode on or off, press the “Mic Priority” (39) button on the control panel of your Singfinity S-68. The music’s volume will return to normal as soon as the person stops speaking into the microphone.
How to Avoid Dropouts When Using a Microphone
When using the microphones, it’s important to hold it in the middle, avoiding covering the bottom part where the antenna is located. Holding the bottom can interfere with the signal transmission, leading to audio dropouts.
Music
How to set up playback
Your Singfinity S-68 offers six different modes: Bluetooth, MicroSD, AUX, USB, HDMI, and PA. Each requires a unique setup process. Please refer to the ‘Content/Parts’ section for information on connection points. For detailed instructions on how to configure your chosen playback mode, please see the corresponding subsection below.
How to connect to Bluetooth
Playing music from your device
To utilize the Bluetooth feature, tap the ‘Bluetooth ‘ app on the touchscreen
tablet or press the ‘BT (41)’ button on the machine’s function panel. Locate
and select “S-68” from the list of available devices in your device’s
Bluetooth settings to establish the connection. Be aware that the Bluetooth
connection will be discontinued once you close the Bluetooth app on the
tablet.
Safety Warning: To prevent potential damage to the speakers, avoid
setting your smart device’s volume to its highest level. We recommend setting
your device volume at the midrange, and then fine-tuning the volume using the
machine’s volume control (20). Feel free to use either your device’s controls
or the machine’s controls to play, pause, or switch between tracks.
How to use SD mode
Insert your MicroSD card into the designated slot marked as ‘TF Slot’ (9) on the machine’s control panel. Upon insertion, an icon will materialize on the tablet screen, signaling that the SD card is properly connected. To enable this playback mode, navigate to the ‘Media Player’ app, tap the ‘SD’ icon, and select the desired file for playback.
How to use AUX (out) mode
Playing music to an AUX-compatible device, like an external speaker, by following these steps. First, connect an AUX or AUX-RCA cable to the ‘Headset’ (5) port on the machine’s control panel and then to the corresponding input on the device you intend to pair with.
How to use AUX (in) mode
Playing music from an AUX-compatible device (such as phone or MP3 player):
Once the machine is powered on, connect an Aux Cable to the ‘Mic Condenser’
(4) port on the machine’s control panel and the corresponding input on your
desired device.
Please take note: To prevent potential damage to the speakers, avoid
setting the volume on your external device to its maximum. We recommend
adjusting your device’s volume to the midrange, and then fine-tuning the
volume using the control on the machine. For play, pause, or track switching,
you have the option to use the controls on either your device or the machine.
How to start USB mode
To play music from a USB drive, follow these steps: First, insert a USB stick or connect a USB cable into either USB slot (10 or 12) located on the machine’s control panel. Upon insertion, an icon will pop up on the touch screen indicating successful USB connection.

How to use Karaoke Mode
With Karaoke mode, you can create a karaoke-ready version of any song at the snap of your fingers, simply by muting the vocals. Press the Karaoke Mode (31) button on the machine’s control panel until the song’s vocals are muted. To restore vocals, simply press the Karaoke Mode (31) button again.
How to connect a guitar to the machine
Connect your guitar to the machine by plugging a guitar cable into the GT.IN jack (1) on the machine, and the other end into your guitar. Adjusting the guitar’s volume through the machine’s speakers is straightforward—simply turn the GT.VOL (13) knob until you reach your preferred volume level.
How to use the live port to broadcast live with your phone
- Download and register on your preferred live broadcasting app, such as Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and so on.

- Launch the app on your phone, and you’re all set to use the S-68’s microphone for your live online broadcasts.
How to sing karaoke using your machine’s tablet
- First, make sure the microphones are properly set up and the microphone priority mode is disabled.
- On the tablet, either choose from one of the pre-installed music apps or feel free to download your favorite music app.
- Dive into your chosen app and hunt for karaoke tracks. These are versions of songs with the vocals removed, so you can add your own!
- Once you’ve found a song, it’s time to sing your heart out as if it’s your special day!
- Please Note: There’s a wealth of both free and premium karaoke tracks readily available on most popular music apps. Many of these will also display the lyrics in time with the music. For example, if you search for ‘Sing King’ (or something similar) on YouTube, you’ll come across dedicated karaoke channels that display lyrics.
- Remember: Some music apps are specifically tailored for karaoke, offering a whole library of songs with these features.
