Alternate Character Customization Music
For frosty mod manager or dai mod manager. Replaces some of the creepy sounds in character creation & the black emporium with some of the bards songs instead.
All the music tracks swaps require the English dub of the game (even the ones with French singing.) All swaps also have the song order randomized so the songs will play in a different order each time, so you get a varied listening experience.

FAQ
Q1: Will this add music to Hawke's character creation?
A:1 No, this only adds music to the inquisitor's character customization.
Q2: Will the music continue playing after I'm done customizing my character?
A2: When first creating your character: no, the music should stop as soon as you confirm their appearance, so it shouldn't take away from the intended atmosphere of the coming scenes.
When customizing your character in the black emporium, the music will play both in the main room of the black emporium and in the mirror of transformation, however it will be louder in the mirror.
Q3: Where are the dai mod manager versions of the mod?
A3: In the optional files section. Frosty versions of the mod are in the main files section.
Q4: Do I need to use both the dai mod manager and frosty mod manager versions of the mod?
A4: No, pick the version that matches what mod manager you're using.
If you're using both mod managers at once (which can only be done with a special workaround), you still don't need both versions, personally I'd recommend you use the frosty version of the mod if you are using both mod managers at the same time.
Q5: Do I need to download the background noise and sound removal files with the music?
A5: You don't have to, but I personally would recommend it as it makes the music easier to hear and personally I find it annoying when the sounds interrupt the music, so using those files in combination with your music file of choice should resolve that annoyance.
Using those files is in my opinion better than simply lowering the sound effects under your games audio options, as doing that would mute *all* sound effects, whereas using my mod only mutes the sound effects that interfere with the music.
Q6: Why do all these files require the English dub of the game, even the ones sang in French?
A6: I only have the English version of the game so I can't swap in music for the other language dubs. The French songs still require the English dub because it references certain copies of the French songs that are only used in the English game (those files are used when the bard is singing in Orlais, since they speak French in Orlais.)
Q7: Why are there French-sang options for the basegame songs but not the trespasser songs?
A7: Because Maryden doesn't sing in French in the English copy of the trespasser DLC, so I don't have any files for the game to reference, unfortunately.
Q9: Why is there no dai mod manager version of the noise reduction for the black emporium?
A9: Because dai mod maker doesn't let me edit the files, so not possible, sorry. :(
Issues
When you first create your character, the music will begin to play, but, since there is a loading screen shortly after this, this will cause the song that is currently playing to change, even if has not yet played to completion.
This is the only instance in which this happens, all the other songs after that should play as expected. The issue doesn't happen in the black emporium.
Thankyou, enjoy! <3
