The term "Lyrics" will
be used here for any text sung or spoken to a tune.
"Karaoke" means the action of singing
to a musical background while reading the related
lyrics.
You can define Karaoke with several
sung voices, and display the lyrics while
the tune is played.
Choir members will find this option
interesting, even if their choral singing is not
strictly speaking
Karaoke.
In a song, lyrics are related to a staff which
gives, for any word or syllable to be sung,
the corresponding
note.
If the part is spoken and not sung, there will
be no note corresponding to each word.
The "space" character separates words.

How to define a chorus?

When a lyrics cell is empty, Virtual Singer sings
the
first non-empty cell above.
So input the chorus only once, on the first line,
and leave the other
cells empty.
To ensure a cell is empty and does not contain,
for example, a space
character, use "Staves>Edit Lyrics" menu
option. An empty cell
should appear as "//"
This mode can be disabled by inserting the invisible
commands: [!dup]
and [!nodup].

verticaly or hide these lines from the contextual
menu (Right click on a lyric cell).
Changes are applied to all selected bars on this
staff.
