A decent and uncomplicated cataloguer. The organization is in strict alphabetical order. It uses mdb databases. The interface is extremely simple, which I don't find a drawback, but you can't customize anything except the color and order of the columns. Advantages: 1) It searches fantastically, by all kinds of criteria, although designing a search is not too easy (it uses "like" and "not like" and all that). 2) It has a lot of columns to add comments, which it then searches; 3) It supports collecting songs into categories. 3) Developer is very responsive.Disadvantages:

  1. Having a lot of columns, which cannot be removed and can only be rearranged to a certain extent, viewing all the information requires scrolling and is uncomfortable.
  2. The real drawback, which for me is a real deal-breaker: It does not automatically update changes made outside the program. From the program you can change the metadata of a song (it opens the properties window of the file explorer), but what is changed outside the program is not picked up. The solution given in the instructions is to delete the track information and rescan the folder, which does not seem a very practical solution if you want to change something, like for example the musical genre, of many tracks at once.

It is a great idea but a little old type of software that would probably work slowly on my computer.

What is Song Director?

Song Director is a program to easily organize all your music and audio files on your computer and find, edit and play them in one place for free. It automatically scans your computer looking for music/audio files (MP3, M4a/AAC, iTunes, WMA, WAV, OGG and FLAC files) and builds a searchable database of all your music. Once this database is built, you can quickly and easily play songs, build playlists, sort by artist, song title, genre, year, etc., and easily view all your music.

More advanced search methods can also be used. Easily select songs and build playlists. Quickly limit the records displayed using any criteria. Once viewing a filtered list of songs, you can build a playlist of those songs with just one click, or export them to another player or storage device. A unique feature allows you to organize songs into any Category you wish.

Locating a song or artist cannot be easier. Simply type the first few characters of a song or artist name. Listening to a song by a certain artist and want to see all music on your computer by that artist? Easy; press one button! Want to see all songs in a certain music genre? Easy! Want to see all songs on an album? Press another button. Want to edit the files tags or record? Press one button. Want to see the lyrics, album art, cover versions and information about the song or band? Press one button. Want to write notes, include pictures and personal information about your songs and audio files? - Easy!

Song Director unleashes the full power of a modern database system in an extremely simple, easy to use manner. There is no faster and easier way to locate, search, and organize large amounts of audio files.
