Any song file your browser can play
Play your song in another tab, YouTube or anywhere, and Limelight records that tab's sound while you sing.
How: press the button, pick Chrome Tab in the picker, switch on Also share tab audio, then choose the tab. Put the two windows side by side so Limelight stays visible.

Tap it right when the first beat lands. Fix drift with the timing offset in Lyrics.
This one connects to the internet
Everything else in Limelight stays on your device. YouTube mode is the exception: it loads Google's player, so Google will see that you watched that video, the same as opening YouTube normally.
What you get: the video plays right here, and lyrics line up perfectly on their own, no tapping.
What you do not get: the song will not be in your recorded file, only your voice. YouTube will not hand its sound to a recorder. To get the music in the file, use Another tab instead.

You can turn this back off any time, and nothing contacts Google until you do.

Dial these before you record. They are baked into the take and cannot be changed after.

If your voice sits late in a take, this delays the track to match. Zero is fine for most setups.
