Details Panel
Lives in the right sidebar. Shows every metadata field for the selected file, and lets you edit them in place if your edition allows.
Double-click any cell to edit. Press Enter to commit — the change is written to the file and the database immediately.
Panel options
Auto-Complete Editing (Ultra)
Suggests values while you type, based on what’s already in the same field across the database.
Edits Update DB Only (Standard / Ultra)
Changes affect database values only. Skips writing metadata back into the files.
User-Definable Display (Standard / Ultra)
Pick exactly which fields the panel shows. Selected fields display whether or not the file has data for them. Click the icon to the right of the option to open the field selector.
Editing metadata
Once you have the fields you care about visible, select the records you want to update and double-click any [field]. Press Enter and the metadata is written into the file immediately.
Ultra users can also batch-update metadata using the Batch Rename Panel.
Adding artwork Standard / Ultra
Drag a .gif, .png, .jpg or .tif onto the Details Panel to embed it as artwork in the selected files. Works on MP3, WAV, AIF, and FLAC — the image gets burned into the ID3 chunk.
The artwork appears over the spectrum meter. Click it to move it beside the meter. Right-click to remove.
.png, .jpg, or .jpeg file with the same name as the audio file alongside it on disk and that image takes priority over anything embedded in the file.
