SonicMood

SonicMood Publisher's Description:
SonicMood bathes you in gentle tones played by selected instruments to calm and relax you while you work. It's like 'Mood Chimes', notes which sound as if produced by chimes blown by the wind. The patterns never repeat and are gentle, harmonious, and soothing. There are 28 different sets of 'chimes' using different instruments, including bells, crystals, kalimbas, glockenspiels, violins, and many others. Audio files of nature sounds can be added to each mood. You can create your own moods or edit the 28 existing moods. You won't find anything like this on a CD...

What's new in this version:

* The "register" menu item (under "Help") is no longer disabled if the user is registered. Instead, it changes to read "Register Again?" and allows the user to re-register (under a different name, for example).
* Modified the behavior of SonicMood when a Mood file is added. If a Mood in the added file has the same name as one in the current file, then that Mood's settings will replace the settings of the Mood in the current file.
* Changed the drag & drop behavior for Mood files and soundfiles. The default behavior is now to copy a file (add it) to a Mood file or a soundfile folder. Hold the "command" (⌘) key down to replace the Mood files or a soundfiles folder.
* SonicMood now allows soundfiles or soundfile folders to be dropped onto the Moods list.
* Made a change that keeps a soundfiles' selection unchanged if an added Mood isn't using any soundfiles. Also allows for adding new selections of soundfiles if they're not already in the Mood (soundfiles merged).
* Made a slight change to the "soundfiles" page of the "Mood Info/Edit" window. Changed the soundfile Min and Max Pause time from 120 seconds to 240 seconds.
* Increased the length of sound motion for both the Instruments and the Soundfiles on the "sound motion" page from 30 to 60 seconds.
* Added more note patterns.
* Made a change so a Mood won't stop playing when a Mood file is added as long as the added file doesn't contain the same Mood that's playing.
* Changed the logarithmic volume fade to be more like the way a logarithmic volume control works (i.e., powers of 10 change in volume). Also improved the logarithmic volume slider change and the volume slider tickmark representation.
* Made a slight change to the marquee display of the Mood name and Mood file name.
* Opening a sheet window no longer causes floating windows to "hide." That behavior worked around a bug that's been fixed with our updated compiler.
* Fixed two olds bugs that caused the current Mood to start playing over if any Moods were removed from a Theme or any Mood except the Mood that's playing was removed from the "All Moods" Theme.
* Fixed a BIG bug that had the effect of mixing and scrambling the Mood settings and the Mood names. So if a file with more than the default 28 Moods was added to another file those Moods really got scrambled!
* Fixed a bug that causes multiple soundfiles to be merged with the same name if their parameters are different.
* Fixed a bug that caused the Mood timer progress bar to keep going after time had elapsed if either the current Theme was empty or the Mood Timer Mode was "list" and no Moods were checked.
* Fixed a bug that caused an added Mood file to not have it's soundfile parameters correctly set for display in the "Mood Info/Edit" window if the window was open when the Mood file was added.
* Fixed a bug on PowerPC-based Macs that causes Mood volume and pattern to be zero under certain circumstances.
