So I just bought the syrinscape sound pack for Rise of the Runelords. Now that I've got all of these sounds themed specifically for RotRL, I could use any combination of them for really anything. I thought it'd be really cool to provide background for some PFS scenarios and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on scenarios that have similar encounters/setting that I could use some of the presets for?
For those unfamiliar with syrinscape, it's an application that has looping sound tracks. Those individual tracks can be turned on/off and the volume can be turned up/down individually. And then from those individual tracks you can set presets so you can just hit "goblin battle in the caves" button or whatever and it'll add the sounds for cave background, goblin noises, clashing weapons, etc. (there's a free demo of it for pc/android/ios that includes two themes for free Bugbear Battle and Witchwood (scary woods background noise) if my description isn't sufficient).
Anyways, I'd just like to make use of it outside of RotRL and I know I could go through all the different sound packs/presets they've set up for each part of the campaign and match it to a scenario myself, but I was wondering if anyone has done this already or has thoughts on scenarios that might already match.

We had this setup at our local gaming store. They have rooms available to rent for game sessions, and one was outfitted with a sound system for Syrinscape.
It ended up really being more of a hastle, or distraction. We'd turn off the noise during RP, and have to remember to turn it back on for combat. We'd joke if we'd forgotten: "On my turn I spend a move action to lean over and turn the sound back on".
If you can get your group to like it, cool. Maybe we could learn from yours. It didn't last more than a couple months at our store. People kept requesting the room without the sound system, even though renting each room was the same price.
