The Music Queue
As you make music selections, they are added to a list of tracks called a music queue.
You can create a different music queue for each zone in your house, or you can create a
zone group and play the same music across multiple zones. A play indicator appears to
the left of the track currently playing in the music queue. When the current track ends,
the next track in the queue starts to play, and play continues down through the list
until the queue is completed. When you add tracks to a queue, they are placed at the
end of the queue.
Browsing and selecting music
You can browse the Music Library in various ways. You can make a broad music
selection like play all available music by a particular artist, or make a specific selection
like play a single track on a specified album. Your search and selection choices include:
• Artist
• Album
• Genre
• Composer
• Tracks
• Imported Playlists
(The Sonos Digital Music System is compatible with iTunes playlists, as well as
M3U, WPL and PLS playlist files created with third-party software such as
WinAmp or Windows Media Player. For additional information, refer to the
online help system packaged with your Desktop Controller software or visit our
Web site at http://support.sonos.com).
• Browse by Folder
Note: You can add tracks to a music queue while listening to other music.
Note: If a computer on your network is turned off or is in standby mode, the music
on that computer will be unavailable to the Sonos Digital Music System until the
computer is turned back on.
