The PC version Most versions of the game included 10 audio tracks from the game as standard CD-Audio files, so the game disc could be played in a CD player with the first track reserved for game data (which can not cannot be read by a CD player), and 10 additional tracks of music.Some versions of the game include shortened edits of the music tracks. Other members of [[Nine Inch Nails]] also helped to create the music.[https://www.quaddicted.com/interviews/americanmcgee] Reznor was also responsible for the game's sound effects. It is notable that this [[Soundtracks|soundtrack]] contains [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_music ambient music], which Reznor went on to explore further with the ''[[Ghosts]]'' series and various scores created with [[Atticus Ross]].

===Alternate Track Titles===There are in fact no official names to for these tracks, as they remain untitled in the accompanying game literature.[http://www.nincatalog. They are usually referred to either by the level they are initially played to, or by one of two fan created track listingscom/item. asp?key=01-90414] They can also be referred to by their track number, ; however, because the first audio track being placed on is the CD's second track (the first being reserved for the actual game data), this usually leads to confusion. As such, they can also be referred to in the format of ''Ghosts I-IV'' track titles (e.g. "02 Quake I"), numbers (e.g. "Quake 1"), sequenced untitled tracks, and so on.
