<p>there is a great overview article on matchlists at <a href="http://blog.beatunes.com/2015/02/creating-great-playlists.html">http://blog.beatunes.com/2015/02/creating-great-playlists.html</a><br>
It explains how it all works together. My guess is, that you need to lower the "Match Quality".</p>
<p>One good way of playing with this, is to</p>
<ol>
<li>Make sure the Matching Songs panel is on (e.g. controllable via <code>View</code> -> <code>Matching Songs</code>)<br></li>
<li>Select some song in the main table<br></li>
<li>You should see matching songs <em>below</em> the main table<br></li>
<li>Now open the preferences<br></li>
<li>Select the Song Matching pane<br></li>
<li>Move the "Match Quality" slider<br></li>
<li>The Matching Songs panel is updated, i.e. more or fewer songs appear<br></li>
<li>Add or remove one of the rules and the results should change again<br></li>
<li>Etc.</li>
</ol>
<p>Creating a MatchList is very similar. The main difference is that you can add limits, rules and built a list on more than one seed song.</p>
<p>Hope this helps,</p>

rule for matching BPM and it still says it can't find anything in the<br>
match. I have about 3000 songs ranging from 60 to 180 BPM, used a single<br>
rule of bpm match from 120-140 and it still can't find matching bpm<br>
songs that fit this range even though I have hundreds.</p></div>Paultag:help.beatunes.com,2009-07-24:Comment/440750912017-11-20T16:17:54Z2017-11-20T16:17:54ZMatchlist not working at all<div><p>Hey Paul,</p>
<p>can you please send a screenshot of both your match rule set (in the preferences) and what you entered in the Match List creation dialog? Perhaps I can spot the issue.</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
