Youka pricingTest one song before switching
Use the original soundtrack and lyrics to build a new Youka project. Existing CDG/BIN imports and PowerKaraoke project files are reasons to keep that editor if they are essential to your work.
Use the same recording and lyrics in both tools. Review timing and vocal removal, style the lyrics, then play the exported file on your intended screen. AI results depend on the recording and may need corrections.
