# Music Sync
\nSync what specific background music is playing between all players! <\/p>\n
### Features
\n– All players in the same area (type of biome) will hear the same background music at the same time.
\n– Otherwise identical functionality to vanilla Minecraft; all tracks play in the same places with the same frequency and the same volume.
\n– The music volume slider still controls the in-game music volume.<\/p>\n
### Usage
\n– Download the datapack & resourcepack from Modrinth, or the latest GitHub release.
\n– Add the datapack to your world, and enable the resourcepack (or set it as the server resource pack).<\/p>\n
All players must have the resourcepack loaded to hear the synced music. Players without the resourcepack will still hear vanilla music.
\nThis datapack\/resourcepack is intended to be used with vanilla Minecraft 1.20.1. Compatability with other datapacks, mods, or resourcepacks is not garunteed; in particular you will almost definetly not hear any new music tracks added by other things, and no music will play in custom biomes\/dimensions.<\/p>\n
### Technical details
\nThis datapack uses beet to automatically generate sounds.json entries & functions for every track & sound event used by each biome in the vanilla game.
\nIt works by replacing all vanilla music sound events with empty arrays (so no sounds play), then creating a new sound event for each individual track, and finally re-implements the logic for when to play each track such that all players with the same conditions get the same track.<\/p>\n
