Everything a karaoke night needs

A real venue rig, minus the setup.

Toast is a proper video player built for karaoke — a full-screen stage on the TV and a control center on the side, working together the way a KTV box does.

video_file

Plays your own videos

Just select your karaoke video folder and hit play. Lyrics must be burned into the video itself — separate lyric files aren't supported.

✓ Video: MP4, MKV, WEBM, MOV, AVI
✓ Audio: MP3, FLAC, WAV, M4A, AAC

MIDI and CD+G karaoke not supported.

smart_display

Search YouTube too

Missing a song? Just keep typing its name and press ⏎ Enter to search YouTube, then queue it like any other. Free on every plan, for personal use, nothing to set up (how it works).

Key and vocal controls not available.

voice_selection

Drop the guide vocal

Turn the guide vocal on or off in one tap. Old-school tracks with music and vocals on separate channels? Switch left, right or stereo.

✓ Vocal On / Off: dual audio tracks required→ Track 1: Instrumental→ Track 2: Guide Vocal✓ Left / Right / Stereo

music_note_add

Instant library

Just pick your karaoke folder — subfolders included — and Toast is ready to serve. Messy filenames or split artist profiles? Easily rename songs, add artist artwork, and map every spelling of an artist to one clean page — search finds them as you type.

Not available for YouTube songs.

Made for singing, not just playback

Every knob a karaoke box has.

Toast works with the audio tracks and channels inside your files, so you can drop the guide vocal, pick a channel, and bend the key to whoever's holding the mic.

  • Guide vocal on/off for multi-audio-track files
  • Audio channel — left, right or stereo
  • Key up, down, and reset
  • Pre-tune the key of any song waiting in the queue
  • Skip intro to a spot you set

Guide vocal, channel, key and pre-tune not available for YouTube songs.

Ready before the intro

Perfect key from the start.

No more starting in the wrong key. Set the right key before the song starts, and Toast remembers it for that singer next time.

  • Pre-tune: −6 to +6 pitch control
  • Instant playback: Plays in your key immediately
  • Key Memory: Automatically loads your last saved key
  • Per-singer memory: Saved per song, per singer

Not available for YouTube songs.

Pre-tune
The regulars

Everyone gets a Personal Songbook.

Toast keeps a Personal Songbook for every singer: the songs they sing to the end most often, the favourites you pin for them, and the key they like each one in. It's still there after they go home — next time, queue their whole set in one tap.

  • Songs they finish most rise to the top — skips don't count
  • Pin favourites from the Control Center — or singers pin their own from their phone
  • Add all to queue — their set, in their name
  • Their remembered key rides along on every song
  • Still there after they leave, until you remove them
Personal Songbook
Fair turns

No one hogs the mic.

When one guest queues five songs in a row, everyone else waits. Smart Rotation takes turns between singers instead — switch it on and the queue sorts itself as songs come in.

  • Rounds: everyone sings once a round, however many join
  • Balanced: two in a row, passed to everyone in turn
  • Strict: a new singer every song
  • Newcomers start at the end of the round
  • Play next and songs you drag stay put
  • Off by default — songs play in the order they were added
Smart Rotation
Built for the big screen

TV in front, controls in your hand.

Send the full-screen Stage Player to the TV or projector and keep the control center on your laptop. Toast finds the external screen on its own, and one key moves it anywhere.

  • Auto external-screen-first, or choose a display
  • Cycle monitors with the M key
  • Kiosk mode — clean full-screen Stage Player
  • Ambient backgrounds loop on the idle screen
  • Song-info overlay you can toggle on the TV

The remote is the party

Everyone's phone runs the queue.

One QR code turns every guest's phone into a remote — no app, no sign-up. The host keeps the keys; the room keeps the momentum.

  • Guests search and add songs to one shared queue
  • See who's connected and who's on the mic, live
  • Profiles with photos, plus superuser / guest roles
  • Host-only lock, or open the controls to everyone
  • Runs on your local network — requests stay in the room
