• picard

  241 3,609 9.9 Python

  A cross-platform music tagger powered by the MusicBrainz database. Picard organizes your music collection by updating your tags, renaming your files, and sorting them into a folder structure, exactly the way you want it.

  

I highly recommend Musicbrainz Picard: https://picard.musicbrainz.org/

It will match against the Musicbrainz database and will acoustically ID your files, so the tags can be completely wrong. Just dump folders of albums into the client, it will group and sort things and ID them. It works great.

• atomicparsley

  12 538 1.6 C++

  AtomicParsley is a lightweight command line program for reading, parsing and setting metadata into MPEG-4 files, in particular, iTunes-style metadata.

I stopped bothering with MP3s over a decade ago in favor of AAC (in .m4a) and for that I use AtomicParsley (https://github.com/wez/atomicparsley).

I’m guessing they’re referring to this: https://github.com/mmastrac/automedia

• mutagen

Awesome app. For programmatically modifying mp3 metadata with Python I have found mutagen to be really nice. https://github.com/quodlibet/mutagen

• strawberry

  :strawberry: Strawberry Music Player (by strawberrymusicplayer)

  

Kid3 has been my go-to for a long time, but lately I've been using Strawberry[1] as my all-in-one music player, organizer, and tagger.

It has a built-in tag editor with MusicBrainz support and will auto-organize files. My only complaint with that is that it leaves behind old folders and files. e.g. If I have a few directories of MP3/Flac/whatever downloads with cover scans, it'll happily use the tags to organize the way I like it* but if there are "extra" files they stay put and have to be cleaned up manually.

But it's really a proper Swiss Army Chainsaw for doing everything in one application.

* Proper directory structure is "Artist/(YYYY) Album Name/NN-Song Title.[mp3|aac|flac]"

• aacgain

  1 37 - C

  Adjust gain (volume) of aac or mp3 files without reencoding them

> So the workflow is to adjust the volume with mp3gain, then re-analyze those levels and set the ReplayGain

Doesn't that already happen automatically when you bake the adjustment into the file using mp3gain?

Also small sidenote: There's also a modded version of mp3gain that supports AAC files, too, including the same workflow of optionally baking the adjustments into the AAC data itself for ReplayGain unaware-software. (https://github.com/dgilman/aacgain)
