What is a BIN file compared to the MP3/CDG I am used too?

I don't think I can use both type files...can I?

My hosting program (Roxbox) only see's MP3/CDG, is there a way to used Microstudio so it will created MP3/CDG vs BIN?

A Bin file is a combination of an mp3 and a "graphics" (g) file. This file is used universally in burning karaoke songs to disks.

An mp3 file is simply a compressed audio file.

A cdg file usually means the the karaoke file that exists on the CD itself. It usually rips to another format to your computer.

An mp3/cdg is probably mistated by "Roxbox" and most likely means mp3/g, which is the combination of and mp3 with the graphics file. MTU products works with all the above and can convert from any of those to other formats as well. An mp3/ file is usually converted to a bin file before it is burned onto a disk, where it appears as a cdg file on the disk itself.

MTU products are excellent for all these tasks and conversions and great explanations on how to go about
doing all of it. You can't go wrong with MTU in your case.
