Abstract

A control device receives one or more first user inputs associating a particular playback mode with one or more playback devices and one or more user-defined acoustic parameters for particular media content that is associated with the particular playback mode. The control device associates a particular trigger condition with the particular playback mode. The particular trigger condition comprises a condition that causes the particular playback mode to be executed. The control device receives one or more second user inputs to activate a particular routine that is associated with the particular playback mode. After receiving the one or more second user inputs, the control device transmits a message that causes the one or more playback devices to play back the particular media content according to the one or more user-defined acoustic parameters.
