Set the room
Create a voice channel named Music or Lounge. Invite Smooth. Pin three commands: play, queue, skip policy.
Share without chaos
Ask friends to paste Spotify or YouTube links into the music text channel instead of spamming random bots. One queue, one bot, fewer arguments.
Make long sessions work
Use playlists and autoplay so the room never hard-stops. Keep volume moderate so talk stays possible. Filters are optional flavor, not required.
Start tonight
Open https://smoothbot.in/invite (or Add to Discord on the site), pick your server, approve connect/speak and command permissions, then join a voice channel.
Then drop one playlist and invite two friends into the channel.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Voice channel or Stage?
Voice channels are best for small friend groups. Stage helps larger audiences where speakers are limited.
How do we avoid fight skips?
Give skip to a DJ role or require a reaction vote in chat. Publish the rule in the channel topic.
Can we keep music after everyone leaves?
For lounges, use 24/7 patterns so the channel stays warm for whoever returns.
Which music sources does Smooth support?
Smooth supports YouTube, Spotify, SoundCloud, Apple Music, Deezer, Bandcamp, Twitch, radio, HTTP streams and 30+ engines. See the Supported Platforms section on smoothbot.in.
Is Smooth free to use as a Discord music bot?
Yes. Smooth Main is a free Discord music bot with HD-focused playback, Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, SoundCloud, playlists, filters and 24/7 listening. Premium tiers are optional for larger servers.
