Use tag data to formulate new file name for selected tracks' files

AppleScript Applet for Music/TV

Universal, for macOS 12 and later only. This script will rename the files of the selected tracks (or the files of the tracks in the selected playlist) using a substitution pattern that you formulate from the tracks' tag data. Optionally, export a copy of the files to a chosen location and rename the files in that location.

Works optimally with "Keep Media folder organized" un-checked.

This app is free to try in Demo Mode. In Demo Mode only up to 10 tracks can be processed per launch. You can purchase a code for $1.99 which will remove the 10-track Demo Mode restriction. Launch the app and click "Register..." in the its File menu to make an in-app purchase.

Watch the video demo below.
