Hello!

I'm new on the community and English is not my native language. So please be tolerant... 😊

Here is my problem:

On the track 1, I have two artists  
Abc\Def

On the track 2, I have three artists  
Abc\Def\Ghi

On the track 3, I have two artists  
Abc\Jkl

On the track 4, I have one artist  
Abc

What I want is to append the artist **Mno** to the tracks **1** , **2** , **3** in a single operation (_only three tracks for the moment just to learn the method, because later it will be with many more tracks at once_). How can I do? Are there several methods? I'm a bit troubled...

For the moment I don't care what will be the player to play the tracks. My problem is simply inside Mp3Tag, how to deal with several combinations of artists to add the same new one ( **Mno** ) at the end of the list of artists of each track I have selected, in a single operation, knowing that all these lists have already different contents.

Thanks in advance!  
BlackWinny

Hmm, sorry. Maybe the section "Howto" would have been better for my question. Anyway if you have answers to help me...

Also, reading my first post I see that every double backslash have been converted by the forum engine by a single backslash.

Use Convert\>Tag-Tag for ARTIST  
Format string: `$meta_sep(artist,\\)\\Mno`

Great! Thanks a lot ohrenkino!

I've tried your tip and it works perfect!  
😍

A question: can this tip be recorded as an action (Alt+6) where **mno** would be a parameter to enter when using that action? If yes, how should I do, please?

No. But you can save the converter with a name to recall it for editing

Thanks, thanks, thanks!

Is it customary in the Mp3Tag community to prefix solved topics with "Solved"?
