The uMusic® intelligent playback
system allows you to digitally store
up to 340 hours of music; uMusic
®
listens to your musical taste, adapts
to your mood and plays what you
want to hear.
   

 

Available exclusively in our Lifestyle® 48 and Lifestyle® 38 home entertainment systems, and now the new 3.2.1® GSX DVD home entertainment system, the uMusic® intelligent playback system digitally stores an entire music collection, and then learns a user's listening preferences based on likes, dislikes, even mood. It then prioritises a music collection automatically, without the need for charts, menus or manually creating and managing playlists.

As each CD is being stored, the uMusic® system attaches detailed information to each song from an embedded database, far beyond the expected title, track and artist. Multiple attributes, including genre, an artist's roots, influences and even subtle characteristics like mood and tone are also identified. The accuracy and depth of these song profiles are ensured using databases from two leading providers of descriptive music information, convering over 500,000 individual CD titles.

Owners can easily search for a specific song or CD; however, the breakthrough come in the uMusic® system's ability to learn a user's individual listening preferences, and then, using its vast database, select and play tracks with similar attributes from their stored collection. All of this done automatically, at the touch of a button; and with every choice made, the user's preferences are further refined and evolved, with up to nine different user profiles able to be developed.


  The Bose® system's remote control is completely intuitive, with commands that
emulate common listening habits. For exsample, "+" indicates a strong preference
for a song, while "-" signals a strong dislike. "Skip" tells the uMusic® not to play the
track now but the listener may still want to listen in the future, while "encore"
indicates to the system you want to hear music similar to the track currently
playing, and so forth.


The uMusic® intelligent playback system realises the potential of stored music
because it removes the barriers between the listening and the equipment.
