4 days ago Hello,
- Whether the remixer tag exists, or whether the remixer is in the artists field is how the platform treats it, not very controllable by 1T sadly. 1T tries to put all the artists it gets into the artist tag.
- The "subtitle" tag is called
%version%in renamer, andVersionin auto tagger. Sorry for the confusion. It should contain the correct remix name (eg. "Person Remix") (if the platform provides it), or values like: "Original Mix" or "Extended Mix". Again depends if the platform returns it or no.
Let me know if this works for you, feel free to comment if you have more questions. Thanks
I'm finding some trouble in Auto Tag and Auto Rename when it comes to coming up with a set of settings/rules/ template to correctly name Remix Artists Right now, on my Auto Tag and then on Auto Rename, the remix artist of a track is being put together on the %Artist% when Auto Renaming.
I was wondering if there's a way to categorize the Remix Artist outside of the %Artist% so it doesnt show up on the Artist field when Auto-Tagging and then automatically on Auto-Renaming
Also if there's a rule to be put in place that when Auto- Renaming, comes up with something like Artist 1 - Song Title (Artist 2 Remix) ?
A few thoughts I came up with:
%Remixer% is a tag field that already exists, although only populated on the Auto-Tag through Beatport & Beatsource - (sad this info can't be retrieved from other data sources). It usually is just the artist's name - 'Artist B'. But even though this is a field you can include in Template from Auto-Rename, it requires that Conditional syntax is allowed/included in the Template function. Otherwise, when you do something like %Artist% - %Title% (%Remixer% Remix), the static content '( Remix)' is always showing up after Title even in when the track is not remixed by anyone. So conditionality like [ ... ] square brackets could be a way to only include it when a Remixer tag field has something in it.
%Subtitle% is a tag field that you can edit on "Edit Tags" tab and that from what've seen gets a correct tag like - 'Artist B Remix' -but I couldn't understand how consistently is this retrieved from the sources on Auto-Tag. But more important of all, it's not a field that you can include in the Template from the Auto-Rename tab. So it's not something you can automate to get Auto-Renamed tracks such as Artist A - Track (Artist B Remix)..
I'm not so much versed in which approach would be simpler to deploy and provide a smoother end result. But would be fantastic if a solution could be improved. Otherwise we always have to manually add remix artist to the track file name. Unless another solution currently is available that I'm not aware.
Thank you for the great work!
