One library · practical workflows

What can you do with Tape?

Start with the music you already own. Explore how each part of Tape works, when it helps, and where its limits are.

Multiplatform playback ↗

Stream the music files on your computer or server to paired devices, at home and away from home, from one Tape library.

Build playlists from your own music while listening on a paired phone or desktop client connected to your Tape Hub.

Index existing music folders in place and browse one catalog across your configured library roots without reorganizing the archive first.

Inspect and edit music metadata in Tape's local catalog, with a separate explicit action for writing supported fields into audio files.

Send playback from Tape to supported Chromecast and UPnP/DLNA TVs, receivers and network speakers on the local network.

Connect supported desktop and mobile clients to your Tape Hub, or run a server hub with Docker for a tested NAS setup.

Review likely duplicate tracks, compare the files behind a recording and choose what remains in your Tape library.

Compute BPM, musical key and waveform data for local music in Tape, with selectable components and visible background processing.

Use MusicBrainz, Discogs and artwork workflows to improve Tape's local catalog, with reviewable matches and metadata provenance.

Build shared playlists and share tracks or releases with another Tape Hub over your Personal Private Network.

Search MusicBrainz and Discogs metadata, save music to a Tape wishlist and match it when identified music reaches your library.

Bring supported Rekordbox, Traktor, M3U/XSPF, Apple Music/iTunes XML and Serato local playlist work into Tape.

Explicitly write supported Tape metadata into MP3, FLAC, WAV and AIFF files so other music tools can read the values from disk.
