Editing a Song's Title and Details
Change the title, description, and metadata of a track in your library
The title and description on a generated track are editable. You can rename a song, add a description, and update its metadata at any time without affecting the audio.
What's editable#
You can change:
- Title — the display name of the track
- Description — a short text field for notes, scripture references, or service context
- Custom tags — labels you apply for organisation (see Organizing Your Library)
- Visibility — public or private (see Publishing Songs)
You can not directly edit:
- Lyrics — to change wording, use Editing Lyrics, which regenerates sections
- Audio — to change how the song sounds, use Section Regeneration or generate a new version
- Style, mood, key, tempo — these are properties of the audio itself, not metadata. Generate a new version with different settings if you want to change them.
How to edit#
- Open the track from your library.
- Click the Edit button (pencil icon) next to the title, or open the Track details dialog.
- Update the fields.
- Click Save.
Changes apply immediately. The track's URL and unique ID don't change when you rename it, so any shared links continue to work.
Title tips#
A few patterns that scale well for large libraries:
| Pattern | Example |
|---|---|
| Scripture-first | "Psalm 23 — The Shepherd's Song" |
| Theme + occasion | "Communion: Cross of Mercy" |
| Service date | "Sunday 2026-04-05 Opener" |
| Album-style | "Living Hope" |
You can rename a song multiple times — the most recent title is what shows everywhere it's used (library, playlists, service plans).
Description tips#
Good uses for the description field:
- Scripture references the song is built on
- The service or moment it was generated for
- Pastoral notes about the song's tone
- Lead vocalist or arrangement notes for your team
Descriptions are searchable from the library search box.
Editing within a service plan#
When a track is part of a service plan, you can also add plan-specific notes to its entry in that plan (e.g. "skip second verse this week"). Those notes live on the plan, not the track — they don't carry over if the same track is added to a different plan.
