ID3 Tag Editor1.1

ID3 Tag Editor is a simple-to-use application that enables you to add, edit and remove ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags from MP3 audio tracks. It doesn't include complicated options or configuration settings, making it accessible to all types of users.

Installation and interface

The setup procedure is speedy task that shouldn't give you any trouble. The only notable aspect is that you must have .NET Framework installed.When it comes to the interface, ID3 Tag Editor adopts a large window with a minimalistic appearance and neatly structured layout, where you can get started by loading an MP3 audio track from file.

Edit and save ID3 tags

It's possible to set the ID3v2 version (2.2, 2.3, 2.4), artist, title, album, genre, year and track number, as well as add cover art from files with the JPG, JPEG or PNG format, choose the picture description and type (e.g. illustration, composer, conductor, recording location). Alternatively, you can edit or remove existing metadata.Worth noting is that the original files are processed by the program, so you may be interested in creating backups prior to using it, in case you're not satisfied with the new ID3 tag modifications.

Evaluation and conclusion

It worked smoothly throughout our tests, without triggering the operating system to hang, crash or indicate errors. CPU and RAM consumption was barely noticeable, so it didn't hamper the system's performance.On other hand, ID3 Tag Editor hasn't received updates for a long time and contains a pretty light set of features. For example, it doesn't support batch processing to be able to edit the tag information of multiple music files at the same time. Nevertheless, it gets the job done and you can test it for yourself, since it's free for non-commercial use.
