For the latest career information about Australian music legend Marty Rhone go to www.martyrhone.com or visit his site on You Tube and hear a preview of his latest album 'Born to Rock' featuring his new treatments of some of the great rock classics.

Andrew, I completely agree with you that the software in its current form is underdeveloped at best. This project was an experiment of sorts, and it proved to be unsuccessful. Unfortunately, we are tied up with several high priority projects now, all of which (except TeraCopy) are Android apps. We simply can't afford to work on freeware projects at the moment. There are no news on when (or if) the new version will be released. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Excellent concept, and I put in a donation sight unseen. But after attempting to use the program in it's current form, I'm a bit disappointed.
1) The user interface not being either properly integrated into a set program, or a standalone program and diving into the top of my screen took me a good 20 minutes to figure out at first. I still don't like it.
2) The supported media players are insufficient, and poorly documented. I even briefly installed iTunes, mistake that that was. I'm back to a clean hard drive, but nothing I use feeds into Sound Maven. You support Winamp, but apparently only recent versions. The latest I'll touch is 2.95. MediaPlayerClassic would be an awesome addition.
3)Like 2B mentioned, it'd be great if this were more automated than a track at a time.
Keep up the work, please!

Hi Cara. Your idea about the save option is exactly what we were thinking for SoundMaven 0.9. Song hiccups, tagging options - it's all on the list. There are many things we'd like to do, the only problem is the time. Our main concern at the moment is to find a new streaming API that would suit our needs. But I'm happy to say that the new version of SoundMaven is finally on its way.

I would love to be able to right click and edit any of the tags in any of the window screens by ctrl+clicking or something? (Tabbing through them would be cool too).
Now I'm thinking of a Save+ option(maybe a little plus sign next to the disk) to Re-Tag all the files that are in the same album dir with the same information. Like artist, year, album, genre.
Could also make it so when you change the rank for a song it changes it after songs change. Would stop it from making the song hiccup after changing the file.(doesn't update in winamp right away anyway)
I have tons of ideas, I should stop before I make a really long post.
Great app, keep it up. I cant wait to re-tag all my stuff. It's all a bit of a mess ATM

James, thanks for dropping by. Unfortunately the development of SoundMaven was halted for some time due to our heavy work load. So, as of this moment, there are no news on when the new version will be released. Moreover, we're experiencing some problems with MusicBrainz temporarily shutting us down, and what is even worse, imeem is no more. It became difficult holding this site together. But we still have many plans for SoundMaven.

Thank you for the software. suggestion: work with other sound file formats like flac and ogg Vorbis, for example.

Hi, 2B. Not yet, this feature will be included in version 1.0, which we are hoping to release later this summer. Actually, it has always been planned for 1.0, because we envisioned SoundMaven as a high-grade mp3 tagging solution as well as a music data aggregator. I just can't say for sure when that will be, because right now there are two Android apps in the works that seriously eat up all of our time.

Wow! This is a really good add-on...
But my library is a total mess, can I use it to automaticly review all my mp3 tags or I have to do it manually for each track?
