Hi guys,  
Complete amateur here with thousands of tracks that i need to bulk/batch edit.  
My File name is "The Transit Kings - The Last Lighthouse Keeper"  
Ive copied this on 1000s of tracks so the Title is "The Transit Kings - The Last Lighthouse Keeper"  
How do i bulk change the title so it is just "The Last Lighthouse Keeper".  
This is the same process i need done for 1000s of tracks so ay help appreciated 🙂  
Thanks

If all filenames follow this naming scheme, you can just use **Convert → Filename - Tag** with

`%artist% - %title%`

to import the artist and title to their respective fields. If you only want the title, you can ignore the first part using `%dummy%` as in

`%dummy% - %title%`

More on that here:
