This can be done via a (Quick) Action [Import tag fields](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/quick-actions-and-action-groups/51882#import-tag-fields):

> **Import tag fields**  
> Source format: `%title%`  
> Formatstring: `%dummy% - %dummy% - %title%`

The same can be done for artist and album, where you'd use the respective placeholder for the source format and adjust the position of the `%dummy%` placeholder, which is used to ignore specific parts upon importing.
