“Mood enhancing OS X software”
by Cyril Roger
SonicMood can play chimes and nature sounds to improve your mood and make you relax.
To some, applications like SonicMood are nothing more than mystical and to others they're a great way to relax. SonicMood features 26 different chimes which can be set in random patterns, creating relaxing and soft harmonies. You can adjust the sound settings and even change the type of sound is played back among the collection of nature sounds made available like crickets, rainfall or thunder. SonicMood also lets you import any sound file or use the built-in Midi recorder to record instruments.
As the developer suggests, SonicMood's interface is very similar to that of iTunes in that you are shown the list of sounds, have the different controls at the top and your playlists on the left of the interface. The only thing we didn't like about the GUI was having multiple windows for every element. The screen can get a little crowded.
Apart from that minor issue, SonicMood is an enjoyable program to relax and listen to nature sounds on your Mac.

From the publisher of SonicMood
SonicMood plays a soothing background of melodic tones when you don't want ordinary canned music breaking your concentration. It creates polyphonic sounds with stimulating harmonies based on pre-defined "Moods". These Moods are intended to have a relaxing or thought-provoking effect on you, the listener. You can change the Moods or add new ones of your own design. SonicMood looks and acts a lot like iTunes to make it as "user friendly" as possible.
