Music Mixer: The Facts

[Bond]

Many of you probably don't know what the Music Mixer is, so I have created this informational thread for you.

The Music Mixer includes:

Karaoke
Grab the microphone (which comes included with Music Mixer) and showcase your vocal talents (or lack thereof) by singing along with more than a dozen Karaoke hits from a wide variety of artists. Or, take it to the next level with a little freeform action. With digital vocal stripping technology, you can remove the vocals from your favorite CDs and audio files—making nearly any Karaoke request possible! Once you get it right, record your performances for playback anytime.

Xbox Media Player
Bring the club experience home with the interactive media player. Build your own party playlist for hours of audio entertainment. Customize soundtracks to set the mood for any situation … from creating the right tone for an off-the-hook house party to orchestrating the perfect atmosphere for a romantic dinner.
PC to Xbox Music and Photo Sharing, with Xbox Live Support
Take the multimedia experience from the den to the living room. With PC media sharing, you can easily transfer MP3s, audio files, and digital photos to your Xbox, creating the ultimate music and video library. And, as if all this isn't enough already, you can download new music, visual effects, and Karaoke songs via Xbox Live and the web!

Photo Album Viewer
Are your photographs really doing you any good stored away in the closet or buried on your computer? Snap the life back into your personal pics with the Xbox Music Mixer. Use the enhanced photo viewer to create the ultimate slide show by transferring photos from your PC to the Xbox hard disk drive—all of which can then be synched to customized soundtracks, special visual effects, and even narratives. Who would have thought Grandma and Grandpa's shuffleboard pictures would flow so well with the 8 Mile soundtrack?

Rave Mode
Enhance your audio artistry with scores of cool 2-D and 3-D visualizers by adding real time video and audio effects to create incredible sensory experiences. Music is no longer a solo sensory experience so feel free to turn on the mic and be the MC at your next party or simply give a controller to a friend to share the fun.

So you basically get a karaoke machine, an MP3 player, and a slide show creator, all for the nice price of $40. The Music Mixer should come to a store near you in September of this year.
