    Quoted from IgorZhu:

    About unreleased arcade prototypes, Steve Ritchie's Devastator reused blast off sound from Space Shuttle, which later reused in Sorcerer, High Speed, Nuova Bell Games's World Defender and F-14 Tomcat. One of sounds later reused in Space Station:

    About Space Station i errored. One of sounds that heard in Space Station is first used in Solar Fire.

    Blast off sound also heard in Pinbot.

    Quoted from IgorZhu:

    I think, some sounds from Bally's Medusa similar to Gorgar and Defender.

    About Williams sounds in some Bally 1980-1981 games, Silverball Mania had recycled sounds from Phoenix and Flash. Later recycled sounds was reused in Space Invaders, Rolling Stones, Hotdoggin', Mystic, Viking and one time in Xenon (boot up sound).

    Medusa's sounds familiar to one of Defender's sounds. Also there was sound from Gorgar:

    Eugene Jarvis would be disappointed if he found out that his sounds were used.

    Very cool. Love the 80's sounds.

    I also know that ending sound from Sorcerer was slowed down version of Space Shuttle spinner sound.
