We usually encounter audio files that are improperly tagged or missing cover thumbnails, and while playing such files on an audio device, the details are not shown properly. MP3tag is a free universal tag editor for Windows that lets you edit metadata and cover images of audio files. It supports most of the common audio formats and, moreover, ID3v1, ID3v2.3, ID3v2.4, iTunes MP4, WMA, Vorbis Comments, and APE Tags.
Free tag editor to edit metadata of Audio files on PC
To start working with this wonderful tool, you need to add a directory from which to load audio tracks. You can even choose a default directory that should be automatically loaded when you start the program. Once the tracklist gets populated, choose the track you want to edit the metadata of.
Now, in the left menu, you will see some blank fields, namely Title, Artists, Album, Year, Genre, Track, Comments, Album Artist, Composer, etc. You can add appropriate details in those fields and click the save icon from the top toolbar.
The program is pretty easy to use, and once you are familiar with it, you will be able to edit the metadata for multiple files at once.
The conversion features are really very useful, and they let you rename the file based on the tag information or import the tag information from the file names. This feature is handy when the files are improperly renamed or the tag information is improper. Five conversion modes are as follows:
- Tag-Filename: This mode lets you rename the files from available tag information.
- Filename-Tag: This mode is just the opposite of the previous one as it lets you fetch tag information from the filename.
- Filename-Filename: This mode works as a renaming tool, under this mode you can modify the existing name into the desired format.
- Text File-Tag: With this mode, you can fetch the tag information from an existing text file.
- Tag-Tag: This mode lets you get tag information from the existing tag.
To use any of the above modes, you need to create strings according to the rules or formats, which is not at all difficult. The program has inbuilt capabilities for getting metadata from the Internet, which is indeed a useful feature that can save your time and, moreover, get you accurate details.
MP3tag is a great tool and obviously very useful. The conversion features are even great and the web search capabilities make it more useful. If you are a singer, composer, or in any way related to the music industry, then this tiny simple freeware is a must-have or if you simply want to organize your music collection the tool is all yours.
