Transair27 90 Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 Mathijs does the new sound set re-record the switches etc, or will it only cover engine related sounds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echo_oscar 40 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Will the new sound set include touchdown sounds? It’d also be great if the weird clipped sample that plays at rotation could be edited or just removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51561 Posted March 8, 2022 Author Aerosoft Share Posted March 8, 2022 The in cockpit sound recordings (switches etc) are all done from the real one, but we'll look at those again for sure. And the touchdown sounds will also be worked on. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dopster198 133 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 @Wolfgang ErnstWhile I really dislike your tone on these forums, I do agree with the sentiment. I love this plane, and I love flying it, but at the same time I can’t fly it without being constantly annoyed by the poor engine sounds. They’re an absolute immersion killer. And while I understand these things take time, and Aerosoft will want to get it right this time, they seem to be moving slow as molasses with this. It’s a little frustrating… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schemgg 6 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 There are new sounds coming ... just relax! Wait and see if you like them. If not, there other options.

Sven W. 3 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 I'd also be curious. I need to say, I'm by now quite a bit disappointed. I haven't used the Twin Otter much, it's a nice plane but apart from graphics, sound is the only other thing to give immersion (no real movement or smell or touch). And to really botch it in this area and then not moving on the issue is quite disappointing. I already had bought the Frisian Islands that just resulted into CTD until some fix. CRJ is nice but I'm starting to have my doubts about this. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amahran 620 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I'll have to say likewise; I got the Twin Otter almost instantly on release without giving it time to hear about the sounds. And yeah, I've shelved it; it's a painful airplane to fly until those sounds come in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will let their wallet do the talking and that's really the last thing they probably need, I don't think I will purchase another Aerosoft product for a long while. You also have to consider many would like to just purchase a plane and use it joyfully, not have to research and install work arounds just to use what you just purchased. The complaints on this board are just a sprinkling of the complaints I read on other sim forums, it would do Aerosoft well to NOT ignore this group.

I would say that Aerosoft products are usually some of the best there are and I am sure they can and want to get the Twinotter up to the quality we are used to. The CRJ is very good and so are many of their airports, for example the Brussels airport which I love. However I wonder why the lack of replies or information here about the sound issue. I've decided not to buy the Twinotter until the sound problems are fixed, but loved the plane in P3d, so waiting eagerly Best regards Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Rösler 21 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 No idea why Aerosoft seems completely unable to deliver here. Have a look at the fabulous sound improvements the Cessna 414 from flysimware has got using service from SimAcoustics. Improvement of sound files has been announced mid April and has been delivered yesterday. A much bigger company like Aerosoft should have been capable to implement a sound update since release time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Rösler 21 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Didn't they just kind of promise to update the sounds? Hope they stick to their word. We will see. Real bad experience so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be interesting to know how this kind of recordings are made and the different sounds identified and extracted. It must be a lot of noise in the real aircraft. Where are the microphones placed?

There is no good way to record the engine without the prop and there is no good way to record the prop without air flow sounds. And nobody EVER has recorded how an aircraft sounds at cruise altitude from the outside. Simply no way to record that. So basically every sound designer will make that sound like how he/she believes the customers will think it sounds. And that is why every single 'specific' aspect of a aircraft sound is always way overdone. The whine of a jet, the howl of a turbine, the whoop whoop of a Huey, it has little do do realism and all with expectations. Let alone the itchy topic of Noise Canceling Headphones. That is what pilots hear but everybody who uses them knows every brand sounds different. An F-16 pilot does not hear the engine. He does hear an increase in noise level when the AB are on. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51561 Posted May 30, 2022 Author Aerosoft Share Posted May 30, 2022 Still problematic, we are still negotiating with two companies who use Twin Otters. The main problem remains that there are simply very few in Europe and that it simply can't be replaced by another aircraft with the same engines because the internal sounds are simply much louder and in a different pitch due to the thin panels. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
