CoverScout For Mac

The tracks included in the iTunes music library can have album covers associated in an attempt to provide a more realistic experience. If your iTunes tracks lack this type of metadata, you can use the CoverScout app to bring it into shape.

CoverScout helps you search online for high quality album art associated with each track, allows you to preview thumbnails for the result, and then enables you to apply the cover art to the current track.

Like with many other Mac applications, the CoverScout installation procedure is reduced to a simple drag and drop to the Applications directory. When you launch the application, CoverScout automatically opens the iTunes media player and imports all the albums available.

For your convenience, CoverScout includes a handful of filtering options and even a search bar: this way you get to process only specific entries without wasting time navigating the library.

CoverScout analyzes your entire iTunes library, groups your tracks by albums, and then allows you to search for possible cover art images online.

The best part is that CoverScout comes with an image editor sporting basic tools: rotate, straighten, crop, scale, and zoom. Moreover, you get to adjust the color level, add a frame, or grab a photo by using iSight.

Note that you can customize the search results via the CoverScout Preferences window: in the Search tab you get to choose from a list of predefined websites, while in the Web Search panel you can add your own pages. This way, you can setup CoverScout to search for cover art on your favorite music website.

In a nutshell, the CoverScout Mac app provides simple yet efficient and easy to use tools designed to help you find high quality cover art images for your iTunes albums. Once you have found a suitable image, CoverScout enables you to attach it to the album in no time.
