1. A computer-implemented method for determining audio personalization settings for an audio category, the method comprising:
selecting a first portion of an audio track that is representative of the audio category;
creating an audio sample comprising:
comparing the first portion to a tempo of the audio track, and
lengthening or shortening a duration of the audio track from the first portion to generate a second portion of the audio track,
wherein the second portion avoids a discontinuity in the tempo of the audio track between a first repetition and a second repetition of the second portion;
playing the audio sample for a user; and
adjusting, based on an input from the user while the audio sample is playing, a personalization setting for the user to be used to modify signal processing of audio when playing back audio from the audio category.
