For any issues people have with compatability please read;
Put all music mod ESP's together in your load order, I personally put my favourite at the bottom but I do not think it matters. Open xEdit and select all your music ESP's, plus any ESP's that have music tracks. As long as your are under 255 ESP's just let xEdit load all of them, less chance of missing something.
Once loaded select the first music ESP, open it up and open the 'Music Type' catagory. Select the first record, for me it is MUSExploreSovngardeChantExterior [MUSC:00000F74] and you will see all the tracks, for all your music ESP's relating to this record.
Right click on the record and select 'copy as overide into', create a new ESP ( I call mine Music Overide ). Now you will see on the right hand side of xEdit your new ESP has appeared, with the tracks listed from the record you just overode with. Now comes the tedious part, you can manually drag all the tracks from the ESP's in the middle into your override. You have to manually add elements to the TNAM column to create a blank Null reference, then drag your track onto the null.
For the record above, using Celtic and Fantasy Soundtrack, I end up with 2 original tracks, 2 from Celtic and 4 from Fantasy in my overide patch.
This needs doing for ALL Music Type records ( if like me you have several music mods, this takes ages and makes your eyes bleed - enjoy ). I tried using AT - Quickchange xEdit script to help, but manually creating individual copy commands for each track was way slower than manually dragging them.
Once you have your Music Overide patch assembled exit xEdit and manually drag it to just under your last music ESP.
Using Merge Plugins you can merge all music ESP's and your Music Overide Patch together. As long as your patch is last, it has priority for the tracks in the merge.
The "Kill The Orchestra" mod has since been removed from Nexus by it's Author. I sadly don't know a good alternative to disable all the vanilla music, and just have the Celtic music going. Either way, used this music mod before the SE of Skyrim and loved it.
I don't know why, but even after installing mod that eliminates the vanilla soundtrack, I can't still hear this. I only hear like 2 tracks in the city and when exploring, and a few in the taverns. How do I get this to work?
That was as funny as it was rude. It's awful but I get it, it gets annoying when you browse mods, finds one that you like and there's a bunch of bug reports/comments about "errors", "crashes" and etc, but either there's no real info so you can take you guess if it's the mod or the user or... There's info and it's clear the person didn't try to troubleshoot at all, didn't even read the mod's description.
Though I like the music, I very rarely hear the original soundtrack when active and it's often the same 5 tracks that play on repeat from the mod though there's suppose to be 72 or so new tracks. So it gets a bit boring fast...
How do I find all the songs added by this mod? There's this one specific song I absolutely loved in Skyrim Legendary, but I haven't heard it at all in SE/AE. It's a song that plays indoors. It sounds so happy. I really want to hear it again.
It's actually driving me crazy. I searched YouTube, I tried downloading the read me, but all it said were a bunch of weird symbols. I just want to hear that song again.
