1 Introduction
1.1 What is UltraStar Deluxe?
UltraStar Deluxe is a free open-source karaoke software that was inspired by the Sony Playstation game
SingStar. UltraStar Deluxe will run on Ms Windows, Apple Mac OSX or Linux. The GUI is intuitive and easy
to handle and the gameplay offers the same feeling as SingStar does.
The biggest advantage of UltraStar Deluxe is that of song management:
Additional songs can be added as required.
Sing along to your favourite songs alone or with up to five friends.
Points are awarded when notes are hit correctly.
Try as hard as you can to become an UltraStar.
