Back in the days of when video games were coded in assembly, so was the music. Many composers had to run a "sound test" in the game to make sure the chip tunes they were composing sounded correctly. The sound test was a simple database in which they could play the song and hear it.

In the modern days of C++/C# and uncompressed audio playback, sound tests in video games are often just legacy to times past, wherein gamers can enjoy music in the game as it becomes available to them. Sound tests are still found in video games today.

This script mimics a sound test function.
