If you want a specific folder or file name pattern, you can manually
edit the following key in gconf-editor :
 /apps/banshee-1/library/file_pattern
 /apps/banshee-1/library/folder_pattern

The available tokens are listed in
src/Core/Banshee.Core/Banshee.Configuration.Schema/LibrarySchema.cs

If you want new possibilities to be displayed in the Preferences UI,
have a look at the Suggested* properties in
src/Core/Banshee.Core/Banshee.Base/FileNamePattern.cs

Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, it seems there is no option for putting the album artist in the path. This is what I have found in the file you refer:

            "Format for creating a track folder inside the library. Do not create an absolute path. " +
                "Location here is relative to the Banshee music directory. See LibraryLocation. Legal tokens: " +
                "%artist%, %album%, %genre%, %title%, %track_number%, %track_count%, " +
                "%track_number_nz% (No prefixed zero), %track_count_nz% (No prefixed zero), " +
                "%path_sep% (portable directory separator (/))."
