Currently the recyclers have in their sound animation loop a high-pitched noise, which is extremely unpleasant to listen to when looking at the base. I've attached the "recycler-loop.ogg" file.

The railgun turrets also have a high-pitched noise in most of the "railgun-turret-gunshot" audios, when looking at a platform moving it's not a pleasant sound to listen to.

Those sounds remind me of trains and buses with bad brakes, aggravating to the ears .

You can try the Hidden Setting known as: in-space-no-one-can-hear-you-scream. I recommend it for a realistic Space Platform experience.

I ended up making myself a mod to smooth out those sounds.

Those sounds were adjusted in 2.0.45.
