<p>matchlists depend on the rules you configured - without knowing
those, it's hard to tell what's going wrong. Can you describe the
ruleset (not individual filters) you used?</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>

tracks), it<br>
worked. Not really sure why it did what it did when I only had a
single seed<br>
song. That was rather odd. As far as the rules, I pretty much using
the<br>
default values, then just trying to pick a single song, then a
range of BPM.<br>
I used "no less than 80" and then "No greater than 120" for the
original<br>
list I complained about. I did limit the list to genre "country"
picking the<br>
"is" modifier.</p>
<p>I tried a different track just now, and I did get 26 songs in
the range 80<br>
to 120 BPM in the country genre, although I say make a 100 track
list.<br>
Anyway, it looks like I need at least 3 seed songs to get 100. I
tried 2<br>
seed songs and came up with a list of 83 tracks. Curious.</p>

<p>it's really hard to tell without knowing what rules you used,
what's going on. There are a bunch of different "default" rules,
and they have different restricting influences.</p>
<p>You can find out about the rules in the beaTunes
preferences.</p>

list. Looks<br>
like 3 is the minimum for a 100 song matchlist, but using 1 seed
per every<br>
20 songs is the sweet spot. Although more seeds helps if your
trying to get<br>
less variations between songs.</p>
