Setting attributes and codes in music scheduling software is tedious and time-consuming. It’s also confusing to many programmers. There are so many options, and we want to use all the power of the software to generate a perfect music flow. Many times, over-coding a library is counterproductive. That’s especially true with what most software programs call Mood. Mood coding is an attribute that often causes conflicts with other settings.
In this article, I discuss how to properly use mood coding in music scheduling. Including:
- The difference between tempo, energy, and mood coding.
- Why mood coding is so important.
- The definition of mood coding and how to use it properly.
