I have OpenAL as my only option for audio Hardware Acceleration, and max channels to 48, and I'm still getting very loud white noise/static for some sounds.
I got to the top of a lift where the lighting turns orange and am just hit by a wall of noise. :( Then shortly after that,
I frobbed a victrola on the ground and the game crashed to desktop.
You can try to install OpenAL Soft and see if that works better for you. Once you do, change the "snd_oal_device Generic Software" option in cam_ext to "snd_oal_device OpenAL Soft" without the quotes, and obviously remove the semicolon that is originally before that line.

I would also recommend testing WITHOUT hardware accelerated audio. I tested this mission thoroughly without it enabled, and never had an audio issue or crash related to it! This requirement may have been a miscommunication.
EDIT: I have just tested, and I get awful static with 'OpenAL On' and the crash as Nicked does. Do not play this mission with OpenAL. 48 channels, whether hardware acceleration is on or off, should be fine. Some players might get static if hardware acceleration is OFF, others might get static if hardware acceleration is ON.

So, have someone found "Irina's ledger"? Where is it?

Did you search the Worker's Quarters? There's an emergency message from Irina there, telling the workers where they are gathering. That should give a clue. The included maps give some clue to the locations, if you need them.

"Security Room" and "Security units section" are different places?

Just to be sure: how did you find out that you have to replace the memory crystal and then pull two levers inside Karras's control room?
DirkBogan on 25/3/2020 at 08:52
Yes. The 'Security Units Section' is a section of the Factory. The Security Room, mentioned in the emergency message, is a separate place and it is marked on your map.

>Just to be sure: how did you find out
I read about this in the Control Room right in a half meter from those levers.
It looks like I miss some key. Is there a key for the Engineer section? I was there but I cannot open Engineer Section-Factory door.
DirkBogan on 25/3/2020 at 09:14
Yes. If you find Irina's Ledger, you will find this key.
A.Stahl on 25/3/2020 at 09:18
So I'm stuck completely. Ok. How to get to that "Security Room"? From what region/sector/room?
