Mood Mapping™
What is mood mapping you ask?
Only the coolest new feature to hit audio creation software in years. Moodmapping allows you to change the mix of the instruments in your audio track to better match the the pace and tempo of the your videos. You can change the moodmap over the duration of the clip. think of it as audio keyframing.

As an example, lets say you have a shot of the family ski trip. As you go down the slope, there will naturally be parts of the video where the action picks up, and other times when your just gliding gently down the mountain. With mood mapping you can put on your audio track, then adjust the mood to match the tempo of the video clip as it changes. Mood isn’t the speed of the music, but rather the fullness of the instrumentation (such as rythm only or drum & bass mix) It's the same "song", just changing the instrument depth or as SmartSound so smartly named it "the mood" of the music.

Unlike many of you guys, I have absolutely no musical talent whatsoever (although I have been told I play a mean air guitar on my Lacrosse stick). With SmartSound I was always able to create soundtracks for my video that sounded great. With moodmapping and the new Sonic Fire pro 4, I can take that to the next level, and actually fine tune the soundtrack to the video. I’m still a hack, but it’s amazing how easy it is for me to use and create even better soundtracks.

mlmiconIn the music library business, SmartSound has leveraged its technology leadership to bring the best music solutions to creative professionals.

The Maestro
The Maestro is your search engine for finding the best SmartSound music for every project. Its intuitive design helps you quickly find and sample the best possible choices.

When searching the SmartSound music library with Sonicfire Pro 4.5, the Maestro provides a "Preview with Timeline" option.  Since Sonicfire Pro 4.5 can import a reference movie to aid in creating a perfectly fit score, the maestro leverages this feature. When "Preview with Timeline" is checked, every time you sample a music track, the reference movie will start playing. This simple feature gives you an incredibly convenient way to quickly test the music with your video, saving you time and helping you find the best music.

Sonicfire Pro 4.5 Maestro Information PaneCutting to the beat
Whether you're developing animation sequences or cutting picture to the beat of the music, the maestro is there to help. Not only will the maestro help you quickly find the best track to drive your visuals, but it will also tell you the basic editing lengths to keep your visuals in sync with the beat of the music. Thanks maestro! That’s helpful.

Keeping track of tracks
Favorites – When you’re first presented with a project and you want to scour the library to find the widest array of options to start with, the Favorites button is helpful. When you find a track that sounds good, just mark it as a favorite and continue your search. When you're done, you can set your scope to "Favorites" and only your selected tracks will be displayed for you to more easily make your final decisions.

User Notes: The User Notes field allows you to type in your own text for each track. You can add a more detailed description or type in the project name every time you use a track, so it will be each to find the answer to "What was that track we used for the Smith project last month?" Setting your scope to With User Notes narrows your view just to those tracks that you've annotated.

Why only in the Network Edition
The Network version of Sonicfire Pro 4.5 was developed specifically to improve the workflow and music library efficiency in a networked environment with multiple editors. Rather than adding additional cost to the Standalone version, we’ve decided to make Express Track exclusive to the Network version. The Standalone version of Sonicfire Pro 4.5 can offer all of these features and more, so nobody misses out.

Perfect for Weaning
Express Track was designed easily replace your current music search engine without requiring any training of your editing staff. By adding the SmartSound customization to the search process, editors will find the process intuitive and light years better than the other music search engines.
