Description of Issue
In my collection there are several artist groups which are added and assigned to several albums by Roon.
However this data is wrong. (wrong members or wrong number of members).
Some album should have a artist-group which according to Roon does not exists, so the album now has an incorrect artist assigned.
If I understand you correctly, go to the Edit menu of the album. Add the correct artist(s) in the Primary Artist setting and remove the wrong ones. (You can add more than one)
You may also have to make changes under Edit > Edit Credits
Finally, in the main edit menu you can add the Album Artist. This is useful if the Album Artist name differs from the primary artist(s). E.g., if the primary artists are two separate persons XY and YZ, but on the album they appear as “XY & YZ”. If you add “XY & YZ” as album artist, Roon will show this as the album artist but both names will be clickable separately and will lead to the individual persons’ artist pages
Group is of course marked but where can I add/modify the number of members, currently
There are only two member in this trio ( apparently wrong, but how do I add a member?
Oh, I see! Apparently this is not possible, at least I never found a way. Maybe (I don’t know) this might be a part of the upcoming and mysterious “time line” feature that Roon has hinted on somewhere in forum posts.
I’m just guessing, but here’s why: To do this properly, an artist page would need a timeline because band members change over time. With a static artist page like it is now, it would only be possible to capture either the current band members or the members at an arbitrary point in history. Therefore, making the members editable would be nice in the current implementation of the artist feature, but it would not be a complete solution.
We can only hope that the timeline will provide this
I was in this situation last night, where I added an album for a group, that really is one individual. However, Roon had no data on who was in the group. So, I ended up adding the actual artist as another Primary Artist so they would show up.
