Might help others if you gave a full explanation of the procedure here also as long as it does not involve mentioning a competitive type product. That's how we "share the wealth" on the forums.

Actually I believe it would violate MTU rules of the board thats
why I didnt post any product names as to a description of
how to achieve this, its actually pretty simple

1. convert CD+G / MP3 file to BIN
2. Burn to a disc using MTU Microstudio.

If you enable private messages, I'll be glad to send you the
name and link to the program you need for step #1

Private messaging has been enabled right along. I checked to see if something had changed that, and it is still checked...

I imported a .WAV file into an audio editor program I use called Goldwave, and the option to convert it to several other formats including MP3 was available, so I figure the reverse would be possible also if I had a MP3 file.

If you don't mind, I would like you to P.M. me though, just to make sure it still works.

Thanks,

George

Hey All,
There are lots of programmes to convert wav. mp3, wma, ogg, etc. in both directions.
A lot are freeware.
There is even a limited facility in windows XP.
None of these involve the graphics element found in cdg. mp3+g, bin. or zip.. which make the products that are able to convert these type of files more specialised, and more relevant to us.
MTU have, however, always stressed that converting files rather than importing them as wav. leads to distortion because of the way these files have been compressed and there may be trouble with sync.
I do these conversions and accept any limitations that implies.
I am usually happy with the results.
I have for instance every Sunfly from 1- 232 approx 3500 songs on 13Gb.
In their uncompressed cdg format they would take up 95Gb
Speaks for itself
Regards from across the pond.
