Yate overview

Yate was developed for people who want complete control over their tagging experience. Supports audio in AIFF, APE, DFF, DSF, FLAC, OGG OPUS, OGG VORBIS, M4A, M4B, MP3, MP2, MP4, STEM.MP4, WAV and WV files. Supports video in M4V and MP4.

Yate has a long list of features; most importantly, an innovative scripting system called actions. Actions can be used to update all of an album's tags with a single operation. Yate also supports integration with AcouticBrainz, AcoustID, Beatport, Discogs, iTunes, MusicBrainz and TMDb. All changes can be easily reverted and individual changes can be undone in any order. Whether you want to automatically or manually tag your files, Yate can do it all!

What’s new in version 7.0.0.2

Bug Fixes
  • While not really a bug, in the past Yate did not load malformed FLAC files which had a STREAMINFO block incorrectly placed. The files are now loaded and repaired when saved.
  • The Database Viewer was not correctly analyzing runtime settings when determining eligible actions for the Run Action menu.

This app is just way too complicated, even for an experienced user such as myself. I much prefer using Tag Editor which brings-up all the info spreadsheet style for easy viewing, thus allowing the user to swiftly delete all unnecessary fields; either manually or by search-replace. It's a 'jump straight in' app. I don't have the time or the patience to spend months trying to figure-out Yate.

I bought this application years ago. Reviews told me that this is the best tagger. First i realized that without reading the help pages i could not figure out how to do anything with it. As an experienced user, confident about my skills and very familiar with tagging my music , i put it to the side to pick later. Several times i did and came to the conclusion that I hate the User Interface. It has not improved a bit during the last years. Surely you can do a lot with Yate but the developer should focus not only on features but if not on looks at least on usability.

The best full-scale audio tagger for MacOS. With good support, too.
