This is blasphemy surely?

If you expand the music settings you'll see a checkbox specifically for docking computer music. I can't vouch for its effectiveness, but I assume it works.

You can only do it at hutton orbital.

Burn the heretic!

OP, in case you are not aware the classical music is the same as was used for the original Elite in '84. It's iconic, it does not simply "switch off"

Some variety for the sake of having more disk space nowadays would be surely appreciated

The docking computer is for weekend late night gaming after a silly amount of beer. Turn it off during normal hours.

The docking computer music is an ode to the film, 2001 a space odyssey.

From the wiki:
During automated docking, the computer would play "The Blue Danube" by Johann Strauss II, a reference to the (very slow) docking scene in movie 2001: A Space Odyssey by Stanley Kubrick which was set to the same piece.

Full stop. 7 km out. Deploy landing year (prevents boosting). Request docking. Enjoy music.

If you're lucky you'll have to wait in the queue.

Haha. Didn't know that, having never used one. Now, I almost want to buy one, lol.

I'm fairly certain that my docking computer drinks more than I do.

Its a reference. A really on-point reference too.

Actually, the song in question was used during the iconic docking scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey

Perhaps we could use 3rd Party Juke Box in future for all scenarios?
