What is a credit?
A credit is the unit used for processing and export. MIDI export costs 5 credits per song; MP3+CDG, WAV+CDG, FLAC+CDG and MP4 karaoke video export cost 7 credits per song.
Do credits expire?
No. Purchased credits stay on your account until you use them.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. You can create and download a free 15-second preview of your synchronized lyrics and chords before spending any credits.
What happens if an export fails?
Credits are refunded automatically if processing fails due to a technical error.
What is a dummy MIDI file?
It's the MIDI Tonio builds when you skip importing a Source MIDI/KAR: no musical arrangement of its own, just your synchronized lyrics, chords and tempo, built to drive your keyboard's display while you play the song's real audio (MP3/WAV) alongside it โ including the SysEx command that starts both together on supported hardware.
If my source is a WAV from SoundCloud, how much quality is lost at export?
None, if you choose WAV+CDG (or FLAC+CDG): Tonio imports your audio as WAV and never re-encodes it, so the exported file keeps exactly the quality you hear on SoundCloud. Only the MP3+CDG option applies standard MP3 compression to the final file.
