mp3 tags - save in project.

Post by The Richter Contingent » Sun Feb 03, 2019 1:31 pm

So we can render and convert to mp3 now, which is awesome (so thank you very much!) It was a 1st world problem, yes, but it's so useful being able to turn it on and go straight to mp3 when we want.

Now though, the extra step I have to do each time is to tag the mp3 file with the title, artist, album art etc.. I'm using a very nice utility for that that appears in the context menu when you right-click mp3 files, but ideally I'd like to have them as project properties in Live and they get automatically applied to mp3 files when they're created.

I won't hold my breath for this and will most likely come up with a solution for myself, in the meantime.

Just making my voice heard. I'd love this to be added some time in the future. But for now, I ain't complaining at all. I LOVE Live :D


Brief addition: I went ahead and made a solution myself. It allows you to edit the tags in an mp3 file and also saves them in another file, alongside the mp3. When you create a new mp3 file you open the editor, it sees the tags are all empty and automatically loads them from the previously saved file.

If anyone wants this let me know.

I would very much appreciate such metadata tagging functionality as well, as this is now a manual action in my workflow after exporting a song. Being able to skip this step would be very much welcome.
