Although not along the same lines as this post, I received a "see rule #4" for a post I made in this thread.  I would think the quoted post would deserve the same.  I am curious to see how cosistent things are here.

Skuzzy doesn't read every single post on the board, some things have to be reported until he is made aware of them.

however, reporters should be beaten,

See Rule #4

Consistency is up to the community.  We do not read every post.  It is up to the community to report offending posts, which we do read.

If you quote and respond to a post which violates the forum posting rules, you are going to get hit with an edit equal to the original post as propagating a posting violation is just as wrong as the original post violation.

The best way to avoid getting slapped with a rule violation is not to violate the forum posting rules.  Ta-da!

Challenge,

The D-25 engine sound has an odd "skip" in it.  It sounds as if wep is engaged momentarily on its own.

Any way we can hear get a preview of the sounds, or hear them before installing?

I tried several sound packs.  All are good but Twinboom's I think are more historically accurate.  He has provenance as you might say.  Sweet P38 sounds.

My sounds are audio recordings from the original aircraft, except where those aircraft no longer exist. I would classify TwinBoom's sounds as audio designs. Since you mentioned the P-38 you should look at the metadata for that sound.

When I loop the sound in the editor I do not hear a skip. I will try it offline here after dinner. Is there a particular airspeed that really demonstrates the problem?

Ammo, I sent you a test version of the P47D25. I  never could hear what you are, but I looked into the way I mixed it and I think I can see what might be happening.

What I have done here is shorten the idle sound so that it reinforces the engine sound. The result is that the engine idle in AH is also reinforced. The sound in the SPCS pack has had a lot of 'mud' removed, but the engine sounds I have sent you are a little different. The ENG sound is just as I described with idle set to -12db. The ENG-2 sound has the engine idle set to -6db. Both have a hard limit of -1.5db, but I would probably set the limit to -3db if I did the same thing in the full version. I think it may even be a good idea to turn idle up to -3db, but before I do that I want to know if what you were hearing has disappeared.

Challenge,

The original eng.wav goes to a very brief higher pitched sound every ten seconds in a loop.  When I say brief, I mean a split second.  It is almost like the sound if you engaged WEP and immediately disengaged.

Of the two files you sent me, ENG.wav was no different to me and still makes that little anomaly I previously described.  However, ENG-2.wav does not.  It is perfect.

Interesting. What sound system are you using? I would like to see if I can identify the problem here, so it doesn't repeat.

I plan on going back over the Jugs and Hogs when I get some free time. I did notice the D25 does not smoothly transition to idle, so that's on the to-do list also.

I use the HD sound on my motherboard which is an Asrock 555.  Forget the exact model and I am away from the house ATM.

Again,  I like your sound pack. <S>

My bad.  I did not mean to slight your package but it sure came out that way.  :o
