ADaOB added elevator music. SCP removed it, and replaced it with a blank wav that gives people the option to mod in elevator music if they want it.

As for Muroj's version, if this was intended to sound like music played over a low-quality speaker, the high notes are far too clear. This sort of effect has to cut both the high and low end of the spectrum.

Hmm... I can certainly see what it sounds like with a low pass filter on it, maybe even purposefully lower the bitrate for added effect. I personally was thinking of tinny speakers where you only really hear the higher pitched stuff for the most part, but you're right! It could do with a bit more messing-with.

Also, btw, the elevator musak isn't an unused feature. It's added by SCP. I believe it was inherited from adaob, which intentionally added a blank file with the idea that other mods would replace it with music.

Trust me, it sounds MUCH better at the lower volume ingame. The sound quality makes it fit with the assumption of there being a crappy, tinny speaker in the elevator, haha.

Forgive me if this is a stupid question but why does it sound like my speakers are blown out?

Nice . Played on it's own I am not a fan of the track, however I'm sure it sounds better in-game.

Having actual elevator music in the game is a welcome one in-line with System Shock 1.

Vii's Elevator Music
by Vii (me!)

This is a simple addition that adds some music into the elevator. I would call it a replacer, but the actual elevator music file in the game's archives goes unplayed in-game as far as I can tell.
It's a cover of the original System Shock elevator music (composed by Tim Ries) that I made myself in FL Studio. Enjoy!

Here's what the track sounds like- however, note that it is MUCH quieter in-game (and sounds a lot better that way! please turn your speakers down to nearly zero when listening to the preview).
