"Export Multiple" option to append text to file & tag names?

Post by whaler » Tue Nov 19, 2019 11:10 pm

When doing "Export Multiple", and relying on labeled section names, is it possible to append some common text to the end of each filename and mp3 tag?

I'm using Audacity 2.3.1 on Windows 10.

Thanks....

No, Audacity doesn't have that feature. You would need to append the common text to each label. You could do that in the Label Editor (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/labels_editor.html), or if you have a huge number to do, then you could export the labels as a text file, edit them in a spreadsheet, and re-import them into Audacity.
