I am using cdrwin software to put cdg song in the computer,however the cdrwin file name ends in .bin. Keyrite does not recognize this file.

I maybe speaking out of line here but try changing the extension to .cdg . From my experience, .bin from cdrwin and .cdg extensions from KHProducer have been interchangable.

thanks for the reply, but how do you change the extension?

[li] Open Windows Explorer (shows drives and directories on the left column, and directories and filenames in the right window)
[li] Locate the .bin filename (for example: song1.bin)
[li] Click the filename to select it
[li] Press the F2 key to rename the file - a box will appear around the filename and the blinking text cursor will appear within
[li] Press the right arrow key on your keyboard (up-down-left-right arrow keys) to unselect the filename so you don't overwrite it, and it will position the text cursor at the far right
[li] Press the Rubout key (above the Enter key - some folks call it the Backspace key) 3 times to remove the "bin" letters
[li] Enter the letters C D G for the replacement extension (for example: song1.cdg)
[li] Press the Enter key
[li] KeyRite can now find and process this filename
