The Best System Shock MIDI Render on the Internet

Admit it--yours sucks.  : )

This is a MIDI compilation of the various themes heard throughout the Security Level and the final areas in the game. It was originally arranged by a man with the internet alias "Chicago", probably uploaded some time in 1998 (original site seems to be down). The tempo is about 3-4% faster than in the game and he added a stereo separation in the bass among a few other minor tweaks, but largely the MIDI data is unchanged.

The track is being rendered through the Arachno Soundfont (http://www.arachnosoft.com/main/soundfont.php) a soundfont meant to compliment old MS-DOS video games. The MIDI controller I used is a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS.

This is a MIDI recreation of the track that's normally heard during the introductory FMV, made by a man with the internet alias "Chicago", probably uploaded some time in 1998 (original site seems to be down). The tempo is about 3-4% faster than in the game, but is otherwise a pretty faithful recreation.

The track is being rendered through an unknown (to me) soundfont that's meant to mimic a Roland Sound Canvas 55 MIDI module as closely as possible, and I used a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS to control the playback.

This is the amusingly playful and intentionally jarring theme that the player would hear in the elevators as they moved from one floor to the next.
