TO get the same info twice you have to copy it or create a copy.

The easiest way would be to import the data into just artist and title fields and then copy artist to albumartist in 1 go with an action as described in the FAQs:

> [@Actions and batch-operations](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/actions-and-batch-operations/967/15):

> How to copy one field value to another field? Example how to copy the content of the ARTIST field to the ALBUMARTIST field: Create a [new action](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/actions/967/2) in an existing action group or make a new action group. Action type: Format value Field: ALBUMARTIST Format string: %artist% Note: If you want to copy all possible values of a field (in case you have multiple artist fields), the internal scripting function [$meta\_sep](https://docs.mp3tag.de/scripting) can be used in the format string, e.g., $meta\_sep(artist,\\\\)

Anything more fancy like an action of the type "Guess value" that does the duplication and splitting with a single action removes the discrete charme of being able to adapt the import mask with the help of a preview.
