Does anyone else play with music off?

yes these are off too.Another questions, is how may people turn OFF some of the voice stuff, like the hyper jump countdown? After 6 years, just couldn't take the 3,2,1... Engage anymore! There's a lot of options for all these ED gives you, which is pretty cool! Like, why do I need to hear "Docking Successful"?I know it was successful, I am DOCKED and still alive! I made it, I get it!

Music off, radio on weekdays, Inara radio player weekends
just checking if we mean the same "real x-com" or are you a "terror from the deep"?
I want to turn off my frickin' pilot with his stupid comments, such as in the start of a battle, "can't see any more hostiles" - frickin' moron. Only reason I don't fire him is because of his outlandish and excellent name!
yeah, you cant edit video properly with music on - it gets all choppy - besides i have music that is better

Same. TFTD is legit, but bloated and rushed imo.

I have quite a few switched off, "Flight Assist Off Flight Assist On Flight Assist Off Flight Assist..." got old pretty quickly, "Target Shields Offline", surprisingly, hasn't
I have "Landing Gear Deployed" still on, but "Landing Gear Retracted" 5 secs after I pressed the button with no other game affecting effects has been deemed unnecessary. I don't need to know that an animation I can't see & that doesn't stop me boosting has finished.
I've turned music off long time ago. It's good, but how long can you listen to the same old music over and over again?
I have plenty of music I can play if I so choose.
I'm currently at a point, where I wish I could lower, or even turn off certain ingame sounds too, like engine f.ex. Constant humming in certain ships is tiring after all this time, especially when using headphones.

I generally turn off the music in all my games too but the music in elite is relatively unobtrusive. I keep it at like 20 percent. I especially like the surface music, nice and zen while rock humping.
I play with it with the volume set really low so I can hear the sound fx better, and sometimes I'll put some of my own music on in the background
I really like the music in the game though, just sometimes it helps to lower the volume to make it easier to hear sounds in the game and voice comms from other players as well as allowing me to play my own music in its place when I want to. Sometimes I will turn it back up when playing by myself

When i started i had it on but as time and hours went in it gets repetative so its off now. Elites a great game to play to your own music i feel, theres a music genre out there for every aspect of the game
I highly recommend 'Gunship' if your an 80s film fan and can handle a bit of synthwave although you have to watch their videos on your tube at least once for the fime part.

Generally keep it off and listen to music or podcasts on Spotify. But, very occasionally I'll put it on and enjoy it in the same way you like an old, familiar album you've listened too a thousand times.
I can't have spent much time on planets though as I was at a geo site recently and after about 10 minutes of silence (with music on), this lonesome, sombre little piano motif played which then went into some quite spiky, dissonant chord changes. That was pretty cool, don't recall hearing it before. Seemed to fit the moment really well.

TBH I turned the music off the moment I first loaded the game. Recently I had to reload the game and I forgot to turn off the music, and, well...
It's wonderful
I like the way it plays something when you reach your target system. It helps snap me out of the jonk haze and it feels like a minor huzzah upon my arrival lol When suddenly the orchestra starts playing out of nowhere it sort of ruins the immersion but not a disturbing amount for me.
I think this is the first game I could go either way. I thought I was going to turn it off but... eh.
A+++ to the sound crew at FDev once again.

Music off, most voices off, FX off, sometimes HUD off, screen shake and UI flashing most certainly off !
Words of warning though, if on a long supercruise beyond the thunder and droning you may ultimately hear the 'bells'. Once heard they can never be unheard !

Yes, I turn the music off in every game I play. It's immersion breaking; there's no music in space. In ED I've also turned off the hyperspace countdown and some limpet messages.
I always turn off music as soon as I start playing a game. I really don't know why it has to sound like an orchestra is following me around in every game. Game devs need to at some point realize that they aren't making movies.
But I've tried the music and it's actually pretty good in this game.
