Embedding your song information (metadata) in MP3 files is a necessity these days especially when sharing and or or distributing your music digitally. When you’ve put in all that hardwork in the production of your songs, you want your information to stay with that file when it’s in use.
An ID3 tag is a data field which contains the audio image, artist name, song title, genre, year, additional comments, etc.
Several audio platforms in both applications and hardware (such as MP3 players, tablets, smart phones) support ID3 tags.
You may already have access to an ID3 tag editor through your main DAW or favorite audio editor. But in the case you don’t, the following list takes care of the job for you. Keep in mind, some ID3 editors may have more metadata field choices than others.

Pro Tools 9 – The Next Generation of Pro Audio Production
Pro Tools 9 redefines the world’s most popular, most advanced music and audio production platform with a completely re-architected, open version of Pro Tools software, giving you what you asked for—and so much more.
Work with an audio interface—or without. Create bigger, better-sounding mixes with more tracks, Automatic Delay Compensation, and other pro features included as standard. Open your workflow to projects created in other audio and video software—and to the entire Avid Artist Series and Pro Series (formerly Euphonix) console/controller line. With Pro Tools 9, you can compose, record, sequence, edit, and mix the way you want—in more ways than ever.
Use any audio interface!
Get the flexibility of using Pro Tools 9 with your favorite Avid audio interface or third-party Core Audio- or ASIO-compatible interface—or use Pro Tools 9 completely standalone for easy on-the-go creation.
Collaborate with others more easily!
Collaboration has never been easier. With Pro Tools, you can exchange sessions with any Pro Tools user or studio. But you can also edit, remix, or even revisit projects created in other audio software—such as Logic, Cubase, Digital Performer, Sonar, Live, Reason, and other third-party apps—right in Pro Tools using built-in OMF/AAF/MXF interchange support, ReWire compatibility, or MP3 export.

After keeping my eye on this program for quite sometime, and reading its competitive success, it’s time to give Cockos Reaper a test drive. This baby is going on my studio computer today and I may use it for a session I have scheduled later this month… of course after I go through and find all its jewels.
Not that I’m holding out on my now favorite DAW Cubase, I think it’s healthy to invade a little competition, plus Reaper first hand just looks so-dog-gone good, and from all the good noize I’ve heard, I’m geeked to give it a try, and more importantly – without any software crippling restrictions. I’ll keep you posted on my progress.
Here are a few specs and information taken from their website…
…REAPER’s no-compromises 64-bit audio engine and 64-bit end-to-end signal path offer the maximum in resolution and headroom. Unlimited track counts, total routing freedom, draggable sends, beat-based audio templates, sidechain support for any plugin – REAPER gives you both power and flexibility.
You can freely mix audio and MIDI routing, even within a single track. REAPER’s parameter modulation allows you to creatively sidechain midi and audio: drive your synth’s cutoff filter with an audio signal, or create midi triggers with an audio gate.
REAPER’s 4MB download is smaller than some web pages. It contains no multi-gigabyte library of someone else’s music, no crippled evaluation versions of a bunch of software somebody paid us to package, no arbitrary hardware or software restrictions and absolutely no invasive copy protection system… Read more and check out more of Reaper’s screenshots.
If you’ve tried it or using it or even plan to give it a shot, drop me a comment and let me know your thoughts.
