What is a CD+G karaoke disc?
A CD+G karaoke disc is a standard compact disc which has an extra layer written onto the disc. That layer is the ‘+G’ part of the disc definition and is the graphics layer. For a CD+G karaoke disc to operate properly, a karaoke CD+G player or special cd-g Software is required. Q: Will karaoke CD+G discs work in a normal CD player? A: Yes but not correctly. A CD+G disc will play the music on a normal CD player, but no words will be displayed. This is because the ‘+G’ part of a CD+G is the graphics layer which only works on dedicated karaoke CD+G players.
