    Does a "silent room" exist?

    I recently saw some guy saying that he wished the inn room had no music, and then someone else told him to just disable BGM in the settings, an entire hour-long discussion across the whole Ul'dah chat ensued but that's not important. Anyway, eventually someone butted in and asked if there was ANY place in the whole game that didn't have any music playing by default, and i've been thinking about it since then.
    So, does a "silent room" exist? Or is it just a myth, and the only way to escape the music truly is to disable BGM in the settings?

    A lot of the ARR zones have no nighttime theme, they just play nothing but they do have a day theme

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    Aquire the Silence Orchestrion Roll.

    In an inn room, you can then set the orchestrion to Silence. That won't be remembered between visits, unfortunately.

    If you have an apartment or a house, you can install an orchestrion and set the background to Silence. That will be remembered between visits.

    I've had my BGM turned off for a very long time. I find the music too repetitive
    A while back, I turned it on again, but the Solution Nine elevator music made me turn it off again.
    I also turned off mount music as soon as I figured out how to do it. (t was just silly.)

    I play in complete silence apart from listening to the new themes once, and I don't mind it. Sometimes I put on Spotify, or I zone out reading stuff while waiting.
