Why doesn the Karaoke Mix Pro (CD+G duplicator) have a reader drive?
The CD+G formatted discs is a very unique format. Unlike standard CD’s, CD+G takes the images/graphics, (which are embedded within the audio track sub-channels), to allow the discs to show the song lyrics while playing the music. Standard CD-ROM or CD-RW drives will not be able to accurately detect those hidden images and distort your copies. In order to make an exact back-up copy of your produced CD+G disc, you need to make copies from a hard drive. If you do not use a hard drive, there is a high possibility the copied disc will have glitches and cause the images to jump while playing the disc. Only the Plextor Premium writer drive has the ability to copy the full disc accurately, both the audio and graphics. Since the reader does not serve a beneficial purpose, why add it on and pay the added expense.
