If You Use Karaoke CD+G Discs and Software...
Your Desires Are Answered!
Microstudio™ 4.006 Software
Upgraded February 18, 2008
Microstudio uses any mix of BIN, KMA, MP3+G, WMA+G, WAV+G, ZIP, MTU CDG, MP3, WMA and WAV files to import/rip, play, copy discs, burn custom discs, record while singing or just record, remove vocals, key change... everything you desire all in one professional product, supported by MTU, in business since 1977, longer than all other Karaoke companies.
Backing up your Karaoke cdg discs protects your hard-earned investment, because after they are scratched, only Microstudio can import and clean them up... if they are readable. Many cdg discs are out of production and cannot be replaced, so backing up is your only protection.

When you buy software from MTU, within minutes you can have it downloaded over the Internet using DSL or Cable and installing.
If you have a slower dialup connection, or if you want a hard copy shipped on CDROM, order the CDROM separately and it will mail the same business day for orders received before 9:00AM.

Supports ALL File Formats |
Play and burn discs with any mixture of file formats: KMA, MP3+G, WMA+G, WAV+G, ZIP, BIN, MTU CDG, WMA, MP3 and WAV. |
Supports MOST CD/DVD Drives |
Microstudio supports an extensive list of CD/DVD drives, far more than ever before. The new error correction code gives you the cleanest imported files available, better than Karaoke Players. MTU does not make any representations for drives purchased elsewhere to support CDG discs. To be sure you are getting a CDR drive that will read and write CDG discs at the highest quality, buy a CDG Certified DVD Burner from MTU. Free Microstudio Software Demo reports if your drive can read/write CDG discs. |
Karaoke Player - CDG Discs and Files |
Turn your PC computer into a karaoke player to perform or practice at home. You can play files on the hard drive or tracks from discs in your CD/DVD burner. You can run other programs while playing because Microstudio barely uses the computer. Other expensive software can overheat and burn out your processor while playing a song! Microstudio runs cool and reliable.
|
|
Copy All Your Discs |
You can copy Karaoke CDG (even multisession formatted), Video CD, Audio CD, CDROM, DVD (1-side single layer) and other CD format discs. Use one drive, or go faster with separate reading and writing drives. |
Repair Damaged Discs |
Discs that are badly scratched cannot copy directly. However, Microstudio's Import Tracks screen has extra coding to import individual damaged tracks and error correct them usually better than new! You can then replace any tracks that are truly unreadable with the same or a different song from another disc, and write a new pristine quality disc and sing with it in any Karaoke Player. |
Import Disc Tracks |
Individual karaoke tracks with lyrics import (rip) to the computer hard drive as .bin files, while music tracks import as .wav files to use with Karaoke Home Producer, Vogone or Keyrite. |
Burn Custom Discs |
Unequalled flexibility allows you to burn discs with exactly the songs you want, regardless of the file formats. You can assemble a list to burn from all these file types; KMA, MP3+G, WMA+G, ZIP, BIN, MTU CDG, WMA, MP3 and WAV. Then, burn them to either a Karaoke CDG disc with lyrics, or an Audio CD disc without lyrics. You can even add the 2-second pregap between tracks or leave them out. Manage as many "Burn Disc" projects as you want with New, Open, Save and Save As. |
Export Track List |
Export your track list names to use in a label making program (not provided). |
Record Singers |
Your microphone controls with VU meter can just record the microphone sound. But that's not all! Whenever a song plays and you sing with the Mic it automatically records to insure you never miss a "good take". You simply click the Save As button after play stops to name and save that song anywhere. The next song or recording overwrites a prior unsaved song to keep hard drive clean for you. |
Volume Controls |
You now can directly adjust the volume levels of the music, the microphone input and the mix of the two being recorded. |
Live Key Change |
Finding a song in exactly your key is not always possible. Now you can click the built-in key change buttons while playing to shift the music to your range so you don't strain your voice. You can go up or down 5 half-notes. The tempo doesn't change so the music playing time remains the same. |
Live Vocal Remover |
Microstudio has Vogone Lite built in, with 4 presets you can select. This allows removing or reducing the vocals in audio files. Users report that with some songs, due to the high quality filtering and bass and treble boosts the music sounds better than the original. |
All Play Controls |
You have all the usual controls; Start, Stop, Restart (double click it plays the PRIOR song), and Play Next stops the current song and starts the next song. |
My Songs and Play List |
The My Songs window simplifies changing folders and finding your songs. Then drag-n-drop them to the Play List to perform or write to a new disc. NOTE: Microstudio does not support dual-display. To run Karaoke shows, see Video Hoster software and Video Hoster Lite software. |
FreeDB Support |
Microstudio now checks the FreeDB on-line database over the Internet if you are connected and enable this. It quickly identifies many discs, and fills in the Title, Artist and DiscID so you don't have to type them in, which you can do if the disc is not found. |
Test Your Burner |
Our free Microstudio demo software with Manual allows you to test your cdg recorder to see if it can read and write the cdg disc format. If yours doesn't, we guarantee that our Certified CDG Recorders will copy the lyrics and graphics with Microstudio. |
Run Other MTU Programs |
Microstudio has four Menu Bar commands that allow you to run the other Karaoke Suite programs and Songverter File Converter if you bought them. To make it easy to find files, Microstudio passes your selected default folder to the other programs so imported files are readily available to you. After importing songs, you can reduce the vocals, key change them, add lyrics in sync to the music to create your own cdg songs, and convert file formats (such as BIN to KMA, ZIP or MP3+G). Then, use Microstudio to write your songs to new cdg karaoke or audio only discs. |
CDR Disc Media |
For best results, we only recommend MTU CDR discs as we found the best manufactured CDR disc for the special needs of Karaoke singers and hosts. |
Computer Requirements |
- A Windows/PC computer with at least 2GB of free hard drive space. NOTE: Microstudio 4.001 and higher requires Windows 2000+SR4, or XP Home/Pro/Media Center+SR2, or Vista with .NET Framework v1.1 or higher. Microstudio 4.006 will NOT... repeat NOT... run with Vista 64. We know the problem exist and will fix it in Version 4.20.
