Doubling up servers?

My current setup is R-Pi 4 running headless Plex and Plexamp servers. I watch movies through Plex client on my Windows PC. I listen to music through Plexamp client on my phone.

Here’s the thing - I want to try the sonic analysis features which won’t work on the Pi. My thinking was to install a second Plex/Plexamp server on the Windows PC. I would use that for music only, and only listening on the desktop. Is there any way I can do this and keep my desktop Plex client and phone Plexamp clients pointing to the Pi server, and use a Plexamp client on the desktop for listening to music which points to the desktop server? Or would this cause conflicts on the PC?

I’ve seen other posts asking something similar to this and saying it’s not possible, but they’re slightly different situations and all a few years old.

No conflicts. Your account can have multiple servers linked to it. Similarly, your account can have access to libraries of different servers (your own ones or those shared with you) — in your clients, you can access all of them.

That’s exactly what I was hoping to hear, thank you.
