Hi, I have been using Mp3tag for years but I am in no way great at using it. I wanted to copy "Album Artist" to the "Artist" field for multiple entries at a time. For instance if the album artist field says "The Doors" I want to copy "The Doors" to the artist field. Could someone tell me step by step how to do this? I appreciate any help in this matter! Thank you!!!
