Default [TEC] Lowered Ambient Sub Interior Sound

Maybe its just my rig, or my speakers, but amb_SubmarineInterior.wav inside data\sound is just oppressive with the ambient "noise" if that's what you call it.

Googling "edit .wav files" i found an open source program called Audacity.

1. Opened file with audacity,

2. Ctrl-A to select all

3. Theres a slider for +/- dB on the left of the selected sample, bring it down to taste, however it will play slightly lower in game than windows, so don't go too low.

4. File->Export as WAV...

5. Save it to desktop or w/e

6. Modfolder it for JGME and install.

7. Enjoy being able to hear electric engines, and goodbye unsettling annoying noise.

PS maybe someone has already done this, but i didnt find it. Also, you can do the same for ambienthydrophone.wav as well, but more than a few decibles is probably too much.
