Sound Issues

[RealSwalton]

Engine sounds are non existent, plus the in-mission music is quiet too.
Anyone else?

Same here, cant find a fix for it. Let me know if you find anything to fix this?

It is a problem with the sound design of the game itself that in nearly 2 years they still have not patched or fixed.

Engine sounds are always too quiet, other sounds seem randomly loud, muddy, or like they were recorded in an echoing cave, and the only real way to work with it is to turn everything down and then turn up the specific sounds that are too quiet till you get some semblance of audio balance.

Also, there are two sets of audio options, the one in the main audio menu plus an "advanced audio" submenu, which has similar sliders. Tbh. I have no clue which one applies, but I am trying to tweak it with both.
Anyway, something is certainly wrong with the whole sound mix.

They have always the same issue since SR3.

Basically the Mix is f*cked.
I contacted Customer Support, they claim they are investigating but no ETA for a fix.

I fixed it with the option to reduce differences in perceived volume of realtek

Isn't that just putting a big compressor on your Stereo Output and reducing your dynamic range? That is a workaround (and reducing sound quality) but not really a fix.

It's up to game mods to fix this now, it's never going to be fixed.

+1 Engine sound is super quiet

Both Car Sounds and also movement of the main character like footsteps, rolling/dodging etc. are very quiet.

Yep same here. I have music down at 20 and most others around 50 with what's left (that should include engine sound) on 100 but I have to crank the volume up 3x the usual sound level, and even then the engine sounds is still rubbish!!

[zarki34]

Same problem here with engine car sounds, the volume is too low...

This is the response i got from customer support after sending them a video of the issue.

Bad sound mix. That's why.
