Contributing artists
Contributing Artists are those who appear on individual tracks within an album, including those on a compilation or
soundtrack album. You can set your preferences to show or hide these individual artists within a Contributing Artists view.
1. From the Music menu, touch Settings -> Manage Music Library -> View Contributing Artists.
2. Select On or Off.
The View Contributing Artists preference setting you select applies only to this controller. If you have another Sonos
controller, you can select a different Contributing Artist view for it.
Sort folders by preference
You can set the sorting preference for music folders that are accessible from your local music library. You can choose to sort
by:
• Track name
• Track number
• Filename
1. From the Music menu, select Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Sort Folders By.
2. Select your sort order preference (track name, track number or file name.)
Compilation albums
If your music collection contains compilations and soundtracks, you may want to group these songs together in your music
library instead of viewing them by individual artist. This means that any artists that appear solely on compilations will not
appear in your Artists list.
Group using iTunes compilations
iTunes normally organizes your iTunes Music folder as [Artist]/[Album]/[Track name]. iTunes has a feature that allows you to
group your compilations albums together. This will organize your compilations and soundtrack albums as [Compilations]/
[Album]/[Track name].
Within iTunes:
1. Mark individual tracks as being part of compilations by highlighting the track and then selecting File -> Get Info.
2. Check the Part of a compilation checkbox.
