New user, sorry if this is a "newbie" question.
I am tagging a large CD collection ripped using WMA Lossless. I have several compilations that I'd like my media player to group together as an album, but would like to also have visibility to the song artist.
I'd like to use "Album Artist" to mark a CD as a compilation or Various Artist album, then use the "Artist" field to record the actual song artist.
Is this accomplished in MP3Tag using the "BAND" field?
Also, is there another feature I should be using to tag an album as a "Compilation"?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Enrique

Use BAND for WMA's AlbumArtist and ITUNESCOMPILATION to set Compilation.
Also, see this [https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping](https://docs.mp3tag.de/mapping) for all tag fields.
