ToT Background Music Level

[SMRT-1]

I waited in the normal queue line for ToT today and noticed that the music was really low. I barely could hear any of it until I approached the actual building. Seemed as though some speakers weren't working or the music was just not being pumped through them. Anyone know whats up with that?

I think it is meant to be this way, because it is supposed to sound like a ghostly echo of music playing. Back in that time in Hollywood, I'm sure they didn't have outdoor speakers, so it is supposed to be faint as if you are hearing it come from inside the hotel.

But that is just my thought on it all...it's been like that.

Unfortunately, the music around property fluctuates all of the time (check out Spaceship Earth next time). In fact, sometimes even the music fluctuates. As an example, every so often, the music normally played around the fast-pass area to Big Thunder Mountain will change to the normal Frontierland loop. I've heard this at least 10 times over the past two years. I've also noticed this happening in other places as well.

Disney is supposed to check the audio levels (each piece has a documented level that it's supposed to play at) on a regular basis. However, as with most things, this may not be happening as frequently as it should be.
