Do you guys have nothing better to do than try to find everything wrong with every release?

Geez, between the "chirp-chirp" and THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL simularity, I think it's time to hit the "anal retentive" alert.
If you want to hear studio noise, listen to the original Dimitri Tiomkin LP for THE GUNS OF NAVARONE with a good pair of headphones--you can almost hear the chorus members shifting on their feet at one point.

Noticed it too. Sounds like a synth element. The "chirping" as annoying as it is to my ears, does sound musically constructed. Goldsmith always brought that kind of soundscape stuff to his scores.

I can see what director Wise was getting at when he described the music as having a nautical (sailing ships) quality..
Horner got the old-school-scoring nautical quality better. Goldsmith was congenitally unable to adopt any traditional style like 40's-50's pirate/swashbuckler becuse they were too trite to meld with Jerry's more modernistic sound.
I think Goldsmith had to be Goldsmith in this instance, and came up with something better. He actually nailed, better than any other big composer of the time, a "stellar" kind of sound for the Space Station/Enterprise music of the first half of the movie.

You do realize that simply by virtue of the fact that we've all joined a filmscore message board makes every one of us anal retentive; it's only the degree of it that changes among us. No person who is a casual filmscore fan can boast membership herein, I guarantee it.
That said, I love when people either hear something I don't hear or also hear something I hear. This is just a small part of the fascinating content one finds here. The most magical thing: people are sharing.

Just replaying this and noticed something I never heard before. On "V'Ger Speaks" at about the 32 second mark I hear what seems to be an anomaly. Sounds like "Chirp, Chirp".
I checked it for myself just now. It's the kind of flaw you can mistake for some little ambient noise that might be coming from a bird on the roof or kids at a house two blocks down. In the film I'm sure it would be taken as just another sound that V'ger makes. Given TMP's eerie, alien soundscape, nobody ever sat up straight and said "That's wrong!"

I mean, if anything, everyone is appreciating how clear the sonics are that such a minor sound anomaly is audible. Nobody is suggesting that it's an error, simply something captured by the recording on the day.
