Changing tags after ripping CD

[paul44birch]

Is there an easy way to alter/amend some of the tags (meta tags?)associated with my ripped FLAC files? I have just ripped my CD collection and would like to for example change an albums genre from Electronica to Dance.
I could re-rip the CD and change the tags at the same time but this seems wrong
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Paul

Select the whole album of tracks >> right click >> Edit Tag, change just the genre, click ok.

Even though I am rather new to this program, this is what I suggest:

Open the folder containing the files, mark the ones to be changed, right mouse click, Edit ID-Tag. (I think you need to opt in for that functionality during install).

Then you can edit tags for one or all chosen files easily.

I've been using this feature a lot, however, I couldn't find a way to reassign new album art to all the files at once. I've ended up re-ripping many times because I forgot to load in my album art beforehand.

This kind of bottlenecks the ripping process for me because I scan covers full-platen and then photoshop to manually straighten and crop and size convert into something dbpa can use.

For album art, Mp3Tag works very well, and is quite slick for all tag editing (works with flac also). Recommended. Free, donations accepted.
