Attributes Used in the TuneTracker System


The table below lists all the attributes available for you to use with the TuneTracker System. They give you the power to do just about any kind of programming you can dream up, so become familiar with them!

All your audio file attributes are viewable right in their folder window. If you don't see a column for the attribute you need, it's likely because you didn't place your files into a copy of the Copyable Music Folder we provided in your TuneTracker installation. By clicking on the Attributes pulldown menu at the top of the folder window, you should be able to put checkmarks next to the attributes you need to view or edit.
