Excellent software. I definitely recommend it.

Easy to use and 99% of my songs are tagged correctly the other 1% are just not recognized, not wrongly tagged. Very good product!

This has helped me to complete the metadata of my music library and organise everything the way I would like to have. A simple interface, but very functional. I love it.

Great program for updating the metadata of your music collection. The accuracy is very high. Love it.

It does a very good job. Top customer support too.

Very well. But the interface should be improved to make the application essential.

Ok. Errors possible in library so backups necessary.
Useful if your library isn’t already quite precise.

I'm still experimenting with SongKong and so far have only used it on certain parts of my music collection. My first impressions are that this is a very impressive piece of software with very flexible and powerful features. It's very tempting to let SongKong loose on your collection as it seems to do a wonderful job of extracting order from chaos. However, I prefer to take things a bit more slowly and explore the feature set to suit my own preferences. No matter how good a piece of software is, automation can only take you so far. In my case I have come across a couple of minor anomalies but Paul has been very prompt and helpful with his advice to track down the cause.

Exciting and powerful software that has made my music files accessible again. I am struggling a little in how to use it properly. Otherwise this is a five star package.Would like to see a YouTube video series showing step by step best practice use. I have collections of number 1 songs in folders by year and not sure how best to update their metadata and keep them together.

Like it.

Super time saver! I only wish it could add Lyrics!

The best software for automatically updating huge mp3 collections with metadata from different sources. Very happy with it, also with the good personal support.

Hey there

So, yeah - a great app for working music on my MacBook, especially with iTunes…

HOWEVER I also have a lot of music (mostly duplicates from my Mac, but I now run Roon from a NAS) on my server, and I’d love to run this on those songs - but I cannot find a way to do so without renaming or restructuring the music. I don’t want that - I just want to update the metadata where it does have data already.

I’ve tried to find how to do this, but it is not clear… I REALLY don’t want these tracks to be added to iTunes on my mac!
HELP me - PLEASE!!

Early days but first impressions suggest a very complex but effective piece of software, I’m still playing.
The GUI leaves a lot to be desired but that’s a personal preference. It’s too early to give a definitive review as I’ve only had the software for a few days. A test run on a backup revealed a few issues but as there are ways to undo the changes this is not a problem.
Update.
Got a pretty rapid response when I sought support so, with the imminent release/update, things are looking good.

It`s ok

I have been using Jaikoz for over 5 years to tag our music files. Great all the way around!

SongKong doesn't work for me - when attempting to rename songs it gives me a 100% error rate. The logs repeated mention permissions error as if the application doesn't have access the files to save.

So far, so good. But, it seems to use a LOT of system resource to where I cannot do anything else off the harddrive. Is there a way to throttle it back?

very good!

well since you keep asking:

excellent and powerful program as is often the case with apps with a really ugly interface. stellar support initially but then a major issue (inability to bulk update tags in itunes) floored ‘em and it all went quiet. so i wrote a looping macro to process 27000 mp3s and all was well. overall did the job with a little help.

<later>

Thanks for the response Paul. It's axiomatic that every app designer thinks that in addition to their programming skills (which you undoubtedly have) they're a solid UI designer. I'm not inclined to spend the hours it would take to produce a decent look, but your suggestion that I might is perhaps indicative of your appreciation of good interface design. Look at any Apple app, iOS or macOS for a pointer maybe!

Look, even Trustspot have a godawful text input interface – I can't resize this text entry box so I'm scrolling like a madman to check what I've written.

I turned bulk update off at your suggestion:

<AD> will it take another four days to update my mp3s please?

<PT> No, will be less. But if using iTunes therre is a tip, ensure you dont have Songkong configured to rename or move files and turn off Save Chnages to iTunes. Then when SongKong has finished simply select all files in iTunes and right click Get Info to update them immediately from info added by SongKong.

Maybe this is broken in the new os? I'll be pleased to help if you need anything tested.

Notwithstanding this – great program. Thanks.
