Make the atmosphere work for your reading
| Setting | Start with | Why try it |
|---|---|---|
| Music style | Match the book | A frequently requested style in this collection, offered as a starting point rather than a guarantee about every track. |
| Mood | Balanced | The most common mood/style combination in the current collection. Try another mood if your reading session feels different. |
| Instrumental preference | Adjust to taste | Request more instrumental suggestions if lyrics pull you away from the page. |
| Focus | High | Ask the generator for background listening rather than treating every passage as a dramatic scene. |
The settings describe what readers requested, not measured audio properties. Preview tells you how an individual track feels to you. Use Replace for songs that are too energetic or have distracting vocals, and save your changes as a reader mix.
Which books can I find in this collection?
