Brilliant
I know this thread was off the first page, but what the'eck. Just wanted to share a revelation that i'm sure you're all privvy to, but in the options in prologue, i just found, !!!!! LARGE THEATRE !!!!!
I've had a 5.1 setup for a while now and was blown away immediatly when I first had it all up and running. Was happy with the sounds as they were, ( really not sure why there's so much debate over gran turismo sound. )
Anyway I deleted my save to start all over again, and when i was going through setting up the game, I found it! All this time I was set to living room, and now i've found Large Theatre I'm blown away all over again. Everything is so much crisper. There are sounds from engines and gearboxes and everything else that i just didnt hear before. Its incredible!
Favourite moment so far; about to overtake a Z06 but decided to hang back to listen to the brute sing. Actually gargle might be more apropriate
You seriously think you can compare the audio from those two videos?! As already said, the prologue video is not in the cockpit view, is recorded off-screen and clearly has a muffled, quieter tone. Don't get me wrong, I can hear all of the transmission and other mechanical sounds you are hinting at, but it's a pretty poor comparison.
My problem?! I didn't realise I had a problem just because I prefer one thing over another... I wouldn't even want to put up with that racket even if I was in a real race car. Besides, race drivers wear ear protection so they do not hear what the microphone picks up anyway.
Yeah, I also do the same with GT5P depending on the view I use - I just don't like things being too loud/noisy regardless of what it is. For me, audio clarity is far more important.
Yep, and I really couldn't give a rats ass about what you prefer either. The only thing I'm sorry for is your apparent inability to appreciate the fact that different people prefer different things. Contrary to what you might think, not all supercars sound like that video. In the village where I live, there is one Ferrari F430, an Audi R8 V10, and an Aston Martin of some kind (not sure which one). All nice fast cars, all sound different, none of which sound like the racket in that video. There is a big difference between a refined, deep throaty engine note from a production car, and the racket from a race tuned car. I'm not saying the sound isn't impressive, it's just not something I'd want blasting out of my speakers for 20+ minutes. Thankfully, PD appear to see things my way at the moment.TokyoDrift, I don't care at all if you are prefering "clean tone" over real engine tone. But unfortunately PD is preferring it too and when even one of the most potent engines in the world sounds like some korean hatchback then then I am worried again what "titbits" will PD take from its second hand engine sample shop this time. I am also so sorry that you hate that "racket" of that mighty engine, but that's what are supercars for and every car nut would piss his pants just because of that sound.
BTW, don't you wear pink clothes?
Sounded like a washing machine full of nuts and screws eh? OK. As for Audi, love them or loath them, it matters not to me! I was just merely pointing out that not all supercars sound like they are race-tuned with no sound insulation whatsoever. Besides, having a "clean tone" does not mean it has no character.
Not my vid, but you only need to record the vid with the sound input line at higher levels than neutral or turn up the record volume until reach the limits.
