I have mp3 with standard title
author - album - title - track - year.mp3

I use a mp3 player and to aid searching on the lcd, I want to double up some in the tags, for example

title tag...artist - title
album tag...artist - album
rest of tags as normal.

Musicmatch can do this. Can mp3 tag studio? I know most people probably don't care about something small like this, but if possible could somebody please teach me.

Thanks, Mark

I figured out how to do this. I used the mass tag function and the prepend button. Worked great! Good software.

If there is a way to do this is one step, please let me know, but I am not so bothered because I most likely will change the artist anyway to something shorter for this step so it takes up less space on NJB3 small lcd screen, and would have to do two steps anyway.

Bye

If I understand correctly, (data from 2 tags into 1 tag) you should be able to do this from the "Direct tag manipulation" tab, and save one or more preset styles:

Starting with "Full tag casefix" in the "General Settings" dropdown...
Check the "Advanced Mode" checkbox
Type what you want into the left column boxes, like so:
<Artist> - <Title> -----> <Title>
and so forth.

Note that I didn't test this, so please reply whether it worked or didn't work. Thanks.

Yes, if I understand the question correctly, that should be the correct solution. If you meant something else Mark, please explain further.
