Portuguese term

voz guia

Portuguese to English Art/Literary Music Professional recording
É a voz que se grava em um canal em uma gravação em múltiplos canais para orientar os músicos que gravarão instrumentos em outros canais até a gravação base estar completa e a voz final ser gravada. A voz guia geralmente não é aproveitada na gravação total final, a não que, por sorte, ela saia excepcional.

A single KFN file can contain all the karaoke information (artist, comments, difficulty...), music and materials (images, sounds...). Also support additionnal tracks for guiding (instrumental guide and voice guide) and a switchable training mode
Peer comment(s):

agree Enza Longo : I think you meant voice guide and not guide voice - I've also seen it as 'voice prompt'

the lead / leading voice

I don't work professionally in music, so I'm just going to give you my idea. Instinctively I would call it 'the lead', not the 'guide'. A 'guiding voice' is something else - a message from God, for example.

Hope it helps :)

From the horses mouth then. Glad you got the right answer :)
Note from asker:
It was a British recording engineer, a friend of mine, who told me they use "guide vocal" or "guide vox" track.
Thanks, Richard!
