Is there a way to get discs in CDJ to sort on artist, based on a word
OTHER than the first word in the artist field? Sorting on the first =
word in the artist field causes substantial problems. If I want Aaron =
Neville to appear in the N's, instead of the A's, I must put him in as =
"Neville, Aaron", which looks ugly, particularly in SlinkySaver.
In the bad old days when I had a spreadsheet of my discs, I had a =
separate field for a "sort key" that I could use to ensure the list =
would sort in the way I wanted it, i.e., the way discs are sorted in a =
record store: by musical genre, then by alphabetical order, using the =
last name of personal names where applicable, with collections last in =
the genre. This is what CDJ should allow me to do as well.
Thoughts, anyone?
