While you get regular playlist options that enable you to create your own lists via drag and drop, a selection of automatic playlists are available on top of that. In addition to those options, playlists are supported.

Enable the 10-band or 15-band equalizer there, configure DSP plugins or import compatible Winamp DSP plugins if your favorite one is not included in the default selection. A right-click on a genre, artist or album plays all tracks filed under it automatically which means that you are covered in this regard as well.Ī click on the preferences icon in the player toolbar displays tools that enable you to control playback even more. Use it to display songs with missing tags, artwork or lyrics to deal with them one after the other without having to go through the whole music collection to do so.Īs far as playing is concerned, all it takes is a click on a song to do that. You find another tagging related feature in the tools menu. The tag editor highlights differences when you select a suggested album from the list of suggestions which makes it easier to find the matching album in the list.Ī mix of automatic suggestions and manual editing is supported as well which may speed things up especially if lots of albums are suggested but none seems to fit yours. MusicBee supports manual tagging options which give you full control over the process and automated tagging options which looks up information that are available in online databases to suggest matching tags. If you notice that albums or tracks are not filed correctly, right-click on one or multiple tracks and select one of the available tagging options to correct that issue. That's where the program's tagging capabilities come into play. That's not necessarily the program's fault though as it uses existing tags for that. Depending on how well organized your collection was, you may end up with an orderly list of genres, artists and albums, or a messed up list.

The import happens quickly and once it is done, the music library is opened in the program. It supports imports from Windows Media Library and iTunes, and offers to scan one or multiple local folders as well. An import dialog is displayed on first start to get all of your music recognized by the program. MusicBee is available as a portable version or setup. Aside from playing popular music formats it supports automatic tagging, music management, CD ripping, automatic playlists, music conversions, audiobook and podcast support, and more. It can be best described as a management program for music as it offers way more than just music playback.
