You don't say what format the tracks are... WAV? MP3? M4A?

The only format that MC12 can write tags to that iTunes can subsequently read is MP3.

However, be careful about which tag you put your information into. Although the basics match up (name/name, artist/artist, comment/comment, etc.), some of the MC12 tags don't match to iTunes tags.

Hope this helps,
Brad

They do in my system. However, the tags in the "Name" field also carry over properly.

Are you sure you are writing tags to the files with MC? There is an option in the "Options..." dialog to make this happen automatically for all files, or you can use the command "Update Tags from Library" to make sure your selected files' tags are updated.
