How to Setup & Use the KSR (Karaoke Singer Request) System
1) Open up DEX 3 (or LYRX) and click the Options button. Under the “3rd-Party Services” tab, first tick the box to enabled KSR and then click the “Login to KSR” button.
2) Click on the “Register / Sign Up” Option.
3) Create your account and click “Register”.
5) Select the karaoke song lists you wish to share with your singers (Karaoke Catalog for your own music (we’ll explain more below) and Party Tyme Subscription or Karaoke Cloud Pro if you’re a subscriber). You will be prompted to restart after each selection, but wait until each box is checked first.
7) Add your own karaoke music to the “Karaoke Catalog” special list (located under Special Lists). You can select all your karaoke songs and drag/drop to the list to populate it, or only the karaoke songs you wish to share with singers (currently capped at 100,000 total songs).
8) Go into DEX 3’s options and under the “Karaoke” tab click the “Update KSR Songbook” button to sync your list of karaoke music. You will be asked to add a venue/songbook name. Create a unique name and click “OK”.
9) You will be assigned a unique venue ID. It’s this ID number you share with your singers. Singer will need to go to ksr.pcdj.com and create a free account. They will then be prompted for your venue ID. Once they apply the ID they can view, search, and make request from your online karaoke song book.
10) When a singer submits a song request you will be notified in the DEX 3/LYRX singer rotation list. Click “Accept” to accept the request and the singer/song will be submitted into rotation. That’s it!

The screenshots displayed above are of the ‘ KSR web app’ that your karaoke singers will use to access your online karaoke songbook and submit song requests. They simply need to visit ksr.pcdj.com and create a free account, type in your songbook ID, and they’re ready to browse, search, and send in requests. They also add songs to their own personal ‘Favorites” folder within the web app. Why a web app? No need for your singers to install iOS or Android apps — any web enabled device will work!
