Disable Automatic ID3 Tagging PLEASE!

Any news on this?

I absolutely hate the feature in Traktor which updates ID3 tags automatically.

My only way around is to make all my mp3s read only, but this doesn't allow for cue point saving etc.

Other programs like mixmeister create separate files in a chosen foler on your PC which stores all the id3 tag/bpm/cue info which would be so handy in Traktor.

Please fix this issue in your next update NI

Yeah not too happy if you are like me and have spent the last 17 years ensuring your 7000+ tracks are categorically ordered just how you want them and are all set in a perfect order of date modified. like sorting your record collection from oldest to newest. and then traktor comes along and starts screwing it all up without your consent! come on!

Since i posted this, i've slowly started to move away from traktor, as its now bugging the hell out of me.

I'm now using serato more and more for my sets.
But the bars i'm now working in, one of them is a 80's bar and another is a general bar playing all different types of music, so i dont need to 'mix' as much so serato suits me fine.

I do like traktor, and i do like using the likes of the X1 controller with it, some of the functions are better on traktor than serato. But as ever its normally the small things which please people the most.
NI please fix this annoying little problem.

these is one solution for that until now, use the windows folders (there you can sort everything) and ''drug and drop'' in the decks.
I dont suggest it for windows users, but for mac its more safe.
I think that NI knows that problem.

Mixmeister pro is a program i used to use for mixing by looking at the track and dragging the automation. They use MXM files which are the plot files that MixMeister creates for each music file and you can store in a seperate folder on your computer. You an eve n choose to enable or disable the creation of them.

Its a very simple and smart thing to do.

Please NI! Its easy programming

500+ posts in the german area about this **** and the result was no result so your posting is useless

i mount my mp3s as read only network share and traktor only has access to the share so traktor isnt able to write.
