Audio Waveform Recognition Technology
Using audio waveform fingerprint technology, MusicID can identify
individual songs or albums in a user's collection regardless of source,
format or tag information.
Multi-Step Digital File Recognition
MusicID uses a multi-step process to identify digital music files by
analyzing textual information from the file's embedded tags, file name,
directory path and other related files in the user's collection
allowing individual or groups of songs to be matched to albums.
Retagging Digital Music Files
Once digital files are successfully matched, MusicID can write
Gracenote's metadata into the file's tag. Accurate and complete
information embedded into the music file provides many benefits to
users, including enabling people to better manage and enjoy their music
collections when transferred to a PC or remote device.
