Editing Disc Info

1. Double click the CD (or select it and File->Get Info… (⌘-I)) and you will see this:

1. If the album is a compilation of artists (typical) then in the "Artist" field, enter "Various", else enter the artist's name
2. For "Album", enter the publisher abbreviation followed by the disc number, eg: "Sound Choice 4321" would be "Sc4321". This is the sortof standardized format for referring to a Karaoke album. If it's a regular CD you can just enter the actual album name
3. Make sure you enter a year, zero is NOT a valid year. If you're not sure, just set it to this year.
4. For Genre, you can type it in if you know it, or pick from the list. Best to pick from the list to make sure it is legal.
5. For category, it frankly doesn't matter. Pick something, anything. "Misc" is fine.
6. Press "OK"

Edit info for All Tracks

1. Select all the tracks (select one, then go "Edit->Select All")
2. File->Get Info… (⌘-I) and you will see this:

1. If the Artist is the same for all tracks on the disc, then enter the Artist name (in this example, "U2"). Most karaoke discs have various artists on the disc, in that case, skip this step.
2. The Album should already be set from the previous step
3. If the Genre is the same for all tracks on the disc, then enter the Artist name (in this example, "U2"). Some karaoke discs have various Genres on the disc, in that case, skip this step.
4. Set the year
5. Hit "OK"

If there are a subset of songs that have the same artist, select only those songs, get info, and enter the artist, this sets the info for all the selected songs. Repeat as necessary for all groups of songs that have the same info, eg: genre.

Edit Info on Individual Tracks

1. Select track # 1 only
2. File->Get Info (⌘-I) and you will see this:

1. Enter the song name
2. If the artist is unique for this song, enter the artist name too
3. Press the "Next" button and repeat the process 'till you wrap back around to the first track.
4. Press "OK"

Now that you've entered the info for the disc, please submit it to the "freedb" so that others may benefit. Select your CD and go to Advanced->Submit CD Tracks to freedb
