NOT THISSonicMood isn't pre-recorded music like you find on records and CDs, or download from places like the iTunes store. It’s more like “Mood Chimes,” notes which vary like chimes blown by the wind. The patterns never repeat and are gentle, soothing, and harmonious. There are 42 "Moods” using a mix of different instruments, including bells, crystals, kalimbas, glockenspiels, violins, and many others. Audio files of nature sounds are added to each Mood, and you can edit these Moods or create your own. You won’t find anything like this in conventional music.
The "iTunes-like" user interface makes using SonicMood a breeze! The lists of Moods are like iTune's song list, the Themes are similar to iTune's PlayLists.
Just double-click a Mood in the list to play it, press the space-bar to pause, use ⌘↑ and ⌘↓ to change volume and ⌥⌘↓ to mute. You can re-arrange things using "drag & drop," have "Timed" play and "Shuffle" play, use ⌘← and ⌘→ to change Moods. Resize SonicMood's window from small to large, or "Zoom" down to a very compact size. To change the sound of a Mood, or make your own, just highlight the Mood in the list and press ⌘i, or click the "Edit" button, and let your creativity take over! If you make a mistake it's no problem, just "undo" it!
You can alter nearly every aspect of the sound SonicMood makes. You can choose each musical instrument and the nature soundfiles, vary the note timing, select another musical scale or change key,
create your own scale, and move the sounds around in the stereo soundfield. Each Mood can include up to 32 soundfiles, recorded nature sounds to compliment the instrumental sounds. Choose nature soundfiles (rain, thunder, crickets, river, etc.) from the many provided (21 included with the SonicMood download, more in .zip files on our Sharing page), or add your own recorded sounds. Any AIFF, MP3, MP4, etc. file can be played. The sounds can move manually or automatically in the soundfield, just like the musical instruments. Soothing sonic sounds with a sense of motion!
SonicMood has a built-in audio recorder to record the sound. Record to either MIDI or a selection of "digital audio" file types. You can add the resulting file to iTunes, copy to your iPod, or even include with some of your own compositions. See our FAQ for more information.
Using the built-in keyboard, you can play along with SonicMood. If you like, your notes will be added to any recording you make. Or pause SonicMood and record only what you're playing. Play using any of the 128 available instruments.
SonicMood includes a Picture Window to display your favorite photos or other beautiful and relaxing images. Simply drag & drop your favorite picture files (jpg, bmp, gif, tiff, png, photoshop, or pict), folders full of photos, or drag a graphic off a web page, onto the window. Using the Picture Timer, you can run a slide show of selected images (put a check mark next to their names in the "Picture List") or all of them (in normal or random order) while listening. Amazing sights to go with the amazing sounds!
You can even display realistic-looking chimes which move and "Mood Colors" that light up when notes sound.
Make up your own "Moods" using 128 different instruments and custom soundfiles. Save and load sets of Moods - keep a set of "happy" Moods and a set of "thoughtful" Moods, or organize them in "Themes" (5 themes are pre-defined to get you started).
And SonicMood always remembers your control settings and menu selections.
