MTU COMPATIBLE CDG BURNERS

CD+G BURNERS:

Many drives that "claim" to support the karaoke format do not! Since 1992, we reject between 10% and 100% that do not write a professional copy. If you buy a drive from MTU, it will make a Professional copy. If ou buy elsewhere, it will operate in one of these modes:

1. Professional - The copy shows the lyrics equal or better than your master. Microstudio software with an MTU drive often makes IMPROVED copies.

2. Standard - The copy appears like the original with random dots in the background and text from scratches.

3. Not Usable - Random dots appear in the background and letters, worse on tracks 7 and higher. Copying a copy will increase the damage. Most recorders that "claim" to do karaoke produce this damage.

4. Total Failure - No graphics or lyrics appear. Most CD Recorders perform this way.

Do not be fooled by sales statements like "sure it can do karaoke". They do not know the LYRICS will not copy!

Drives That Microstudio Recognizes:

EARTHBOUND DESIGNS DOES NOT make any representations for drives purchased elsewhere, or that are on this list. These drive models can read and write karaoke cdg disc format, but not all actual manufactured drives will. To be sure you are getting a CDR drive that DOES read and write CDG discs, buy a CDG certified drive from us.

Microstudio can work with many cd recorder drives, but we only sell a few that we support and certify to copy the cdg graphics and lyrics.

NOTES:

CD Recorders can write at full speed with MTU CDG-CDR media if your computer and hard drive can sustain the required high speeds. Our IDE drives use the newest burn-proof technology that helps insure successful burns at the highest speed your computer can deliver. For best performance, use a hard drive that rotates at 7,200 RPM or faster. The reading speed will not be what the drive specification claims, as that is a peak transfer, not a sustained transfer which is what matters.

Karaoke machines only read CDR Recordable media. DO NOT use CDRW rewritable media.

READ THIS WARNING!

EARTHBOUND DESIGNS DOES NOT make any representations for cd burners purchased elsewhere, or that are on this list. These drive models are expected to work for Karaoke CDG discs. To be sure, either test the drive before you buy it, or buy our drive.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Older drives from Yamaha, Sony and HP no longer work with Microstudio 2.506 or higher. If you have one of these drives, please stay with your Microstudio 2.400 or prior until we change our CDR burner drivers.
