Running LMS 8.1.1 on MacOS 11.2.3.

I’m toying with a few variations to get combinations of my server
library and/or Spotify library playing random (or shuffled, if you
prefer that term).

At present I’m using Random Mix. I’ve set its genre checkboxes on the
web UI so that it accesses what I want from my own server library of
tracks and from my Spotify stuff. This works well.

Sometimes, though, I want to have only my Spotify stuff playing in
random/shuffle mode. I’ve tried this with Settings/Shuffle set to
Shuffle By Song on the SB3 but have had what we might call less than
random results. I mean, much as I like Steely Dan, Blue Nile, and a few
others, their tracks do turn up much too frequently to deserve the term
random. There are loads of tracks and artists that just never ever turn
up.

So, my two linked questions. 

1. Is there another way to do random that I’m missing and that might
suit my requirements?

2. Is there a way to set up more than one set of prefs for Random Mix?
It occurs to me that it would be nice to have an option where just the
Spotify checkbox is checked, in addition to the one I’m using. In other
words, I could choose between a random feed from Mine+Spotify and a
random feed from Spotify-only.
