"Tagging" MP3s

Vocals too high in the mix? Too low? Not even sure? Snare sounds wonky? And how do I make everything louder than everything else? Step in, step in, for your mix Viagra from people who know the secrets.

Does that actually imbed the info or does it just create a list that only Windows sees?

Thank you, Sir!

I'll add tags to my reference mixes or random stuff i export out of reaper and transfer it all to my phone to be played back in the jeep or where ever, and all the info i entered shows up on the media display of the car or whatever media player i play it in, phone, home stereo etc.
Appreciate the info! Good to know...

Well, don't quote me, but I think Windows will allow the same thing, but I'll have to check to make sure what I saw earlier is true. Yep. At the bottom of the window that opens for editing the tag is a big box for "album art" to add. Same thing?

Man, i honestly have no idea with out looking i don't know that i have ever consciously noticed an option for album art, i'm replying from my phone at this point but when i am on a computer tomorrow i will look and see. That would be really cool if that were the case!

I had noticed that a certain, super-talented someone on another site had not posted in a while so I asked about him and was told that he is on this site. So I came over and did some reading and I liked what I saw so I signed up. Armistice was one of the people who pointed me here. I hope to get a lot out of Recording Rebels. It seems like a pretty cool place so far.

not going to lie, we are awesome and while growth is still slow (i think we are like 6 or 7 months old as of yesterday), we have a great steady forward momentum.

glad to have you on board and if you have any suggestions that you think might make your own experience better leave them in the suggestion bin.
