If you have multiple NAD digital music players like the M50 in the same network, you can control them separately. Each device on your network is an independent device working in conjunction with your system.

As a complete music system, they for the most part work together. Rarely does each device need to be configured individually as playlists, music sources and music subscription services are replicated to each device when configured. Playback however is controlled individually or in groups.

From a multiple device setup, select the player (device) to playback using the following steps.

1 Select (Devices) and a drop down list of available players appear.

2 Select the player on your network you wish to control and all the App controls will switch to the selected player.

ORGANIZING YOUR PLAYERS

Multiple devices in different locations are like putting players in different Rooms. When you select 📄 (Devices), these players will appear in a drop down "Rooms" list. You can organize these players into one group or conversely remove a player in a group by initiating the following steps.

1 From the drop down "Rooms" list, select the player that you wish to control.

2 The selected player will be highlighted and will be designated as the "Master". On the other hand, the other available players in the "Rooms" list will have an "Add" button displayed beside each one of them.

Add: Selected player will be included in the same group as the "Master".

Remove: Upon selecting "Add" button for a particular player, the same button will change to "Remove". Select "Remove" if you decide to remove particular player from the group.
