beginning of song is missing

KARAOKECLUB:

If that is in fact the problem, you would need some audio editing software.
I'm sure if you asked ten different people which to get, you'd get ten different answers, all valid.

I use Goldwave. It's simple to use and relatively inexpensive.

If you are going to be doing much with Midis, an audio editing program is almost a must.

I'd also strongly suggest Roland Virtual Sound Canvass. With it, you can change midis to suite your own taste, cut out lead instruments to produce true Karaoke tracks, and a host of other functions. You may already have something of that nature, dunno.

If you get Goldwave and get stuck I'd be glad to help where I can, and I'm sure if you get some other program, someone else will come forward and give you a hand.

Take care,

George
