Abstract
In response to receiving the playback mode indication, a playback device is caused to operate within a particular playback mode. After initiating operation of the particular playback mode, the playback device accesses a particular set of routines that is associated with the particular playback mode. The particular set of routines are configured to cause the playback device to play back particular media content with a particular user-defined acoustic parameter, and to configure the playback device to advance between one or more routines within the particular set of routines in response to one or more user interface interactions. The playback device receives the one or more user interface interactions at a user interface associated with the playback device. After receiving the one or more user interface interactions, the playback device executes at least one routine selected from the particular set of routines.
