batch removing x-amount of characters from a song title
« on: January 11, 2015, 11:26:55 am »

is there a way to batch remove an x-amount of characters from a song title (name)?
example: 3 characters from the front (or back) incl. blank spaces

maybe the option is already there and i’m just not seeing it?

would be handy if it was.

under ’clean file properties’ would be a good place for this.

or
=RemoveRight([Name], 5)
