Default Populate ID3 metadata when rendering to MP3

It would be really helpful if Reaper would populate ID3 metadata when rendering to MP3. The ability to use some of the same wildcards available with filenames as well as creating presets.

Currently when I render to MP3 I have to break out and use MP3Tag to populate the metadata and it is a break in my workflow that it seems that Reaper could pretty easily handle internally and intuitively.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, pleeeease. I mean, REAPER can already read out MP3 tags. So writing it would be the next logical step And in combination with wildcards it would be a very efficient way of tagging, too.

I would defer to how WaveLab handles things like this. Once you set up a metadata template, you never have to think about it again on files that you render.

You can add ID3v1 and ID3v2 metadata to mp3/AAC and WAV files. You can also add the artwork so that any rendered files contain the artwork though very few apps can read artwork in WAV files, it can be done.

WaveLab will inherit the metadata info from the already easily entered CD-Text and populate that to all applicable ID3v1 and ID3v2 metadata fields.

So basically, you enter all the project info just one time, and that easily gets pushed to the proper places.

This is part of the reason why I do the first part of mastering in REAPER, and finish up in WaveLab.

REAPER is missing some easy but important things to make it a one-stop shop for all serious mastering work.

Here it is in Python ReaScript,

settags.py

It expands many macros and any environment variable.

Yes absolutely I am looking at how to do this with Lua ReaScript so no Python need be installed.
