Locating all tracks of a CD in one folder

[Spoon]

[title] - [artist] - [track] - [album]

title - artist - Track # - Album Name

[GBrown]

I am not interested in any "folders" in the naming. I do that in the "path".
What I have is 4 Cd's collection with various artist on each CD. My Path includes the CD#. All i want in the "naming is the; title - artist - Track # - Album Name.
The "artist" might come from any of the various available but most likely be listed with the track "title"

Spoon has posted the literal string for what you have asked for. But be aware using this format will mean the files in each of your path folders will not appear in the correct track order of each disc. They will sort by Title. I recommend you consider swapping this to Track # -title - artist - Album Name if the order matters to you. That will need this change.
[track] -[title] - [artist] - [album]

So the answer seems to my post "is this even possible" is No.

Sorry thats incorrect. Have you tried spoon’s or GBrown’s naming string?

essentially ANYTHING is possible with the appropriate parh location and naming string.

Dam I wish I knew how to explain. In a four CD set.
Music\CD1\
Track# - Title - Album - Artist -
" " " "
\CD2
Track# - Title - Album - Artist
" " " "
I just want the CD with the Artist and not a folder labeled Artist. One CD; all tracks with the Artist with their track. The next CD with all the Artist listed with their track.

Side: I had found a tutorial once on this topic but can not find it now. Does it still exist?

There is confusion here with your own comments. You have repeatedly stated you wish to set a fixed path, and then to simply name each file with the four-part string. But now you are stating you wish to include the disc number as a subfolder as well.

Assuming you still wish to start everything in the same base folder path, leave the path settings as they are. Set your file naming string like this.
CD[disc]\[track] -[title] - [artist] - [album]

TL;DR
The path option sets the destination folder for all of your music files. While this can be many folders deep, it must point to an existing folder as a starting point where your files will be saved.

The naming option is where you can assign the final file location with a mix of additional sub folders and of course the actual file name. This can be a mix of fixed characters (such as the opening "CD" reference in my suggested naming string) and dynamic structures that pull from the metadata such as [title] and [artist]. Further conditions for the naming can be included using test cases with Programmable Actions like IF statements, case conversion, etc. Essentially the naming string can be as simple as the straightforward line you have asked for, or as complex as many lines of code are necessary to build out a highly dynamic structure based on many of the metadata fields your files may have.

Yes; I guess I'm conceding, but just wanting to rip the CD 1-1 just as it sits.
As I think back the original install had some options for naming that included one that was good enough for a hundred or more CD's I have ripped.
Are these configurations available? Sample codes?

In the Naming window click 'Default Naming' then OK.

Alternatively, include in your reply

• the full path and filename of a previous rip that you're happy with
• what you intend to put in the Path setting

and we'll work out the rest.
