Q: How do I test the sound of my singing through the TV?
A: To test whether the microphone is playing the audio correctly try the following:
a) Go to the options screen on the main menu
b) Highlight the music volume option (third from the left) and turn the value down to 0
c) Highlight the microphone volume option (far right) and turn the value up to 100
d) Exit and play a song. Once there you should not hear the music, but be able your voice coming from the speakers.
Please be aware that the microphones are not designed to amplify the sound that they take in. They are only used to register what sound is being made in relation to the gameplay and output the sound as it has been received through the speakers.
Q: There seems to be some audio lag when playing We Sing on a HDTV, what can I do?
A: There is now an offset (HDTV) feature incorporated in the game which allows you to speed up and slow down the timing bar for when lyrics appear. Its in milliseconds so you need to choose any value above or below +100MS or -100MS (+/-0.1 seconds) all thew way up to +/- 500ms (0.5 seconds) and adjust it till it suits your singing style.
This will help in playback. Also, by the nature of the game, you will find that generally your performance will be behind that of the original singer as you may sing when you hear the original singer (meaning you will be after the original singer).
We are continually improving the replay feature and in future We Sings we will try and get this to “auto detect” against TV’s/cables and players voices and will strive to make it better in the future.

All songs are original radio edits. They are the same songs you would hear on any radio station or music channel.
