Machine Room sound effects from the decks below the bridge. Reactors rumbling away and machinery that never stops. Alarms for when it does. Most of it is designed for sci-fi, from battlecruisers to alien craft, with industrial drones for darker futures. For the old-fashioned kind of machine room, there's a vintage print shop.
Machine room sounds work best as a bed under the action. The spaceship libraries give you Reactor rumbles and mechanical environments for scenes down in engineering, with command centre and Control Room ambiences for the cut back upstairs. The alien craft recordings blend synthesised ambience with organic textures. Odd ships need odd rooms. Constant drones can sit under a long scene, and the evolving and pulsing ones help when the room has to build towards trouble. When it gets there, the alarms take over. They suit sci-fi films and space games, or a factory in a dystopian future.
