I think I can clarify the OPs (good) idea as follows:

If your playlist includes many tracks from many albums from many artists it would sometimes be very satisfying to play the tracks in the order that they were released “over the years”. Thus the session would perhaps evolve roughly to era of years and perhaps once a track from one artist is selected, all that artists (selected) tracks would play from when the artist was young to when s/he became old then older.

The point is, if we get a chance to have multiple/cascading SORT-ORDER selection parameters it gives all sorts of interesting possibilities/preferences. In other players this is done by holding down CTRL key when clicking the 2nd then 3rd etc fields.

I may be wrong, so please respond if this helps or hinders your request of Tiki.

Best wishes,

Also, it is important to note that there is no static when playing lesser quality music files, even 24bit 192khz .flac files play beautifully with the same long 5m (17 feet) AudioQuest ‘Forest’ USB cable.

I fear that the noise could be inherent in using a notebook-computer to run TuneBrowser? They are notoriously “noisy” devices (as a generalisation). My music player hardware is a Microsoft “Surface Book 2”, about four years old. I have tried removing the AC supply so that runs on internal battery, but it makes no difference. The computer, DAC and AMP are all running off a good quality APC UPS which I trust is cleaning up our very dirty AC 220v input.

My external DAC is apparently opto-isolated so it should be stopping as much as that technique can:
