Pretty Ugly, Jumbo Shrimp, Taped Live, Unique Library Music …
Since all music libraries make the same music available to multiple clients, you’ve never heard the words unique and music library in the same sentence…until now. Don’t scoff at me. With SmartSound’s award-winning Mood Mapping feature, you can set musical keyframes that change the sound of the track to be a fit that is unique to your production. So if you’re concerned about other people using the same music as you, switching to Mood Mapping will eliminate that concern while giving you a much better fitting music score.
The ability to change the music from one Mood to another at any exact point on the timeline is a great feature. The Transition field allows you to determine how long it takes to transition from one mood to the next. Whether it’s gradual or abrupt, you can decide what’s best.
Although Mood Mapping has been implemented to maximum ease of use, you can still see that the instruments are all right there. The clever design of Mood Mapping gives you full control over 8 instrument layers without the hassle of volume rubberbanding every track. If you want to use volume rubberbanding, it’s right there so you haven’t lost any control with Mood Mapping.
You ’re busy and we know the prospect of learning another program can be a little intimidating. You’ll be amazed at how easy and intuitive it is to custom fit SmartSound Music to your productions with Mood Mapping in Sonicfire Pro 4.5.

The Sonicfire Pro 4.5 timeline is a multitrack editor like you see in other programs. When you have SmartSound music on the timeline, you can move it, resize it, pick new arrangements, change the instrument mix with Moods and Mood Mapping.
If you want to customize the music to a video sequence, just open a reference movie in this viewer and it will synchronize with the music on the timeline.
