Title: Saving musicians list
Post by: sootshe on April 03, 2015, 03:36:59 am
Hello,

New to this format & wanting to know if I can save the musicians credit list for an album in this software.
I'd like to list all the muss on an album & all the credits for each album so I can view it when listening to the album.
Yeak, just like we used to do when we had vinyl & got all that info for free.

Any help appreciated.

Media Center has a comments field where you can put free form text.  As far as I know, that's where you'd put something like you're describing.  I am NOT an authority on this though, so you might want to wait for other people to chime in with their ideas.

Brian.

i’m fairly new as well but my answer is YES:
I don’t have the time to get into details as to exactly how but under tags there is a slew of fields available such as Band, Bios, Copyright etc. that you can fill out. If a field such as let’s say ‘credits’ is not avail then you can create one.

I use the soloists tag for singers and instrumentalists on my mostly classical albums.  The big advantage is that once a soloist is entered you can subsequently chose them from a drop down list.  The field allows you to enter multiple soloists - one per line.  Not sure if this is what you're looking for.
