This video shows a cool new feature of SmartSound Sonicfire Pro 5 Scoring Edition called Spotting.  When a composer approaches the task of creating a music score, Spotting is one of their first steps.  It helps them determine where music should go and what it needs to emphasize.  The Sonicfire Pro 5 Spotting feature allows you to setup markers for key events in your scenes and then helps you find music that is a natural fit.  It works.  Seeing is believing...watch this video...then you can try it for yourself.
