I think we'd need to see your NWC file to figure out why additional lyrics are not showing.

Hi Francis, You have any idea how to make all words showing in midi?, I have attached my nwc file.

Thank you,
Frank

OK Francis, I will attach here the file. As to first word in the verse I know how to make it appear, just put the whole rest.
In the page setup I put show only soprano having in mind so that midi will not get confused when I expert it. I appareciate if you have any suggestion how to make all words that was sung by soprano will show up.
Thank you
Frank

Not showing the first word was deliberate by the VanBasco authors. They found that many MIDI authors put copyright information in the first word, so they just skip it. Frank, I think we'd need to see your NWC file to figure out why additional lyrics are not showing.

For a possible workaround, see item 1. in this recent posting of mine.

Thank you Richard, I will try to learn it, by just adding the whole rest, yes will show the first word, but for the refrain one when there are some words in the refrain part that soprano says "when the roll".(not shown in the karaoke midi) ..and Tenor replied when the roll is shown....

Can your suggestion work for such a prolblem?.

Thank you

Frank

I think this "lost first word" has been there "since always". I do not know whether it is a bug or a feature of all karaoke players, or of this karaoke player.

Hello,

I exported my nwc file to midi, and when I play it, some of the lyrics, especially the beginning word in reference is not shown. Did I missing something?

You can see here in the link, the lyrics that is missing.

Sometimes it's easier to personalize a song that's already been transcribed rather than start from scratch. Even if the tune is different, you might not have to do much to the lyrics.

Thank you Warren, You are right.
