Flattermann Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 (edited) Dear FSX frieds, in the last time I had a funny problem. If I just start my FSX with for (example) a Cessna I am hearing the normal noise of the engine. But later perhaps after flying a little, the engine noise decreased to about half. Even changing the aircraft during the flight did not change anything. Pressing the Q button twice increased the noise for seconds, but then it fell back to the previous (half) noise level. Changing the aircraft during the flight makes no difference. Starting a new flight the noise again is normal until a few minutes when the engine noise decreased to about half again. I can't find out why this happen. Perhaps somebody knew a solution for this mysterium? BTW its the same problem, if the aircraft is standing with started engine. Playing music (without FSX) makes no problem, so I think it is not a problem with my soundcart. Edited August 1, 2022 by Flattermann new realisazion happy landings!

Flattermann Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 Hi, the problem was apparently solved as a result of a tip in a neighboring forum. There a similar problem (already 2021) was treated and a solution suggestion concerned the Win10 sound settings. Under Sound_Control Panel there is a tab "Communication" under "Detection of communication activities" under four options the item "Reduce volume of other sounds by 80%". This point was - without my intervention - activated. I have now activated the item "Do nothing". After completing a longer flight, there were no more sound fluctuations :luxhello: From the text it can be seen that these settings were actually set up for phone calls made with the PC at most. So had nothing to do with my FSX, but is a WIN10 thing. happy landings! Christian:pilot: Intel i5-6600K CPU @ 3.50GHZ, 4 Kerne, 16 GB MSI RX 480; M.

pirate068 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hello I had a similar phenomenon on a Falcon 50; I removed Peter Dowson's Wide (FSUIPC4) and the sound became stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flattermann Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 I only am using the unregistered Version of FSUIPC4. So it couldn't be the culprit for the irregularities. happy landings!

I was having the same problem and because I'm not using any FSX audio add-ins I was puzzled, especially because it seems to happen with some add-in aircraft more than others.
