Quote from Red Runner :

This may be a problem with my sound setup and has not to be related to LFS!

I'm having real problems with interferences here, meaning that the sound gets really loud at some revs.
For example LX4:
1000-8100 rpm: normal sound
8100-8200 rpm: really loud
> 8200 rpm: normal sound again

Really loud means
a) Teamspeak with voice activation triggers
b) I get headaches while racing

I think, I read something about a "stereo effect" before cleaning up here and can imagine that this is related.

Does anyone else feel the same problems?
I did a quick test with lowering the center volume, lowering subwoofer volume and turning / moving the speakers a bit around, but nothing really helped. All I achieved was moving the inteference range a little(!) bit around, e.g. 8000-8100 rpm instead of 8100-8200 rpm.

that is probably from reverberation. I get the same effect too. I think it hits a certain note where the volume increases alot. You can also get this in a car too. Driving my mates integra with a modified exhaust, this occurs at around 3000rpm. Additionally, about the patch, everything sounds much better. Much more meatier. However the FZR i believe still sounds a bit too weak for a GTR car. In U30 it sounded very sharp, almost machine gun like. I mean you can hear each cylinder firing with tremendous force. Finally, good to now hear tyre squeal at a higher volume than before =]. Much better feedback from the car now. I haven't had time to test everything but these are what i noticed.

I had another go at the cars...they actually do sound more accurate. I really like the FZ5 where if you rev it at 100% throttle, back off, then get back on it at 100% again, there's that surge in power you get from a responsive NA car. This wasn't there in U30. However, in turbo cars, the turbo whine (whistle) is much too loud i reckon. I was in a turbo car just today and the wastegate is louder than the turbo whine. Re: the UFR, it sounds very strange. As aforementioned, it sounds like a UFO or some sort of futuristic spacecraft. I think because you can't hear each individual cylinder firing, rather just a continuous sound, it doesn't make it sound like a car anymore. Just something i noticed.

cheers scavier
great effort...much appreciated

ive just noticed something...speedsoro,delarue and falkowski and mogar are all from brazil....hmm?

lol barge...how can you read those green dials? hurt my eyes =P

i remember there was a racer called stig blomqvist or something similar...maybe thats why he's called the stig
