User-made music

Downloadable community music

The FreeSpace Music Restoration Project (FSMRP) is/was a now-semi-defunct effort to retrieve the uncompressed versions of the FS1 and FS2 musical scores. The FSMRP's music can be downloaded here, as for whatever reason they don't have a link to the downloads on their website. The music shipped with the FreeSpace games was in a compressed format, and the lossless FLAC files were stored on tape drives. Some of the information on the tape drives have been recovered by Volition and released to the community; the rest has been either unreleased (mainly because either FSMRP or Volition didn't bother to share) or corrupted. Hiring a data recovery specialist to retrieve this data has not been a priority for the company.

Music in user-made campaigns

Beyond the Red Line has a completely original soundtrack composed by MaX. The BTRL soundtrack has been widely praised by the FreeSpace community, and has been used in more than one FSPort campaign by Orpheus.

Wing Commander Saga contains a single original track, wcsagaidea.ogg, used for the "mainhall". It also contains many of the old Wing Commander tracks, which can also be downloaded at [www.wcnews.com].

Transcend is one of the most "cinematic" of all FS campaigns, and it's been praised for its Betrayal.wav, the campaign's only "original" (eg taken from a game other than FS2) music track.

The Procyon Insurgency and BrShivans.rar contained some music tracks taken from other games. PI also used some FSMRP music (see above); in fact, CP5670 (the campaign designer) was a member of the FSMRP.
