I have a HD full of Wav's from back in the day. Unfortunately they are just called track. 1 track. 2 track. 3 etc.
Using the converter to convert to Flac, how do i access the meta data from say Discogs to the tracks.
Thank you in advance

Unfortunately not.
These were back in the day I can't even remember what program I used. It's basically a folder "van halen - 1984 jump" <as examples> then 10 tracks inside.
I was hoping it would be easy as cd ripper... Metadata button {or manually find} copy the Discogs Url ... Boom done.
As long as the files have been ripped correctly (with gaps appended) and each CD is in its own folder then most taggers will be able to look them up from online databases using the track count and lengths.
I don't think Music Converter looks up tags, so you'll probably want to try one of PerfectTunes, CUETools, foobar2000 or Picard. I've never tried to do this in batch, but I'm pretty sure CUETools and foobar2000 can't do that, so you might want to try the other two first.
If they're not ripped correctly then you'll want to try something that uses the accoustic signature of the track which I believe PerfectTunes and Picard do.
It's worth looking around and using a lot of the free trials as this (performing accurate metadata lookups across big batches of music) is a specialist area, and could be a huge amount of work (if you're meticulous with your tags) so would definitely be worth investing in the right tool for the job.
Apologies for the delay in getting back to you. Mother in law taken ill with covid.
Yes the track order is correct but as stated no other information.
I did find a SORT OF solution.
I burnt the tracks to cdr, then ripped with dbpoweramp.. This obviously worked but long winded & defeats the purpose really.
