Question

Posted (edited)

Name: Liam Barry

Rank: Master Sergeant

Type of issue: Not Sure

Brief Description of Issue: Noticed recently that my sound in certain aspects of my PC were lower than before so I made sure my sound settings were all up ( and they were ) but still got nothing better. I went online and they said to turn loudness equalization on in the properties of my speaker choice and it works but now things that weren't so loud are loud now (example : Donner thunder and rain is very loud). How can I get back to the way it was without this enhancement.

A few questions to start out with here concerning your problem:

  • What are your sound configuration settings under Options and then the Audio tab?
  • Do you have surround or virtual surround going to your headset? It may be that the rear channels are at a higher volume now where the thunder and rain are being sent through.
  • Have you tried changing between stereo and surround or vice versa?
  • Do you know of any recent config changes that were related to sound?

My properties for this headset on my sound options has loudness equalization on and my settings are stereo

I haven't changed anything from anywhere except for that.

It just changed by itself i guess

Looking into the "Loudness Equalization" option I really think you want to have this turned off since it changes the volume levels of sounds differently depending on if they are quiet (will become louder) or loud (will become quieter). Please when you have a moment try these next steps.

  • For the properties of your speakers please go to the "Enhancements" tab and check (enable) "Disable all Enhancements".
  • Confirm that you are modifying the correct audio device using the "Preview" button on the "Enhancements" tab.
  • Go to the levels tab and make sure that you have the levels up and that the balance is not skewed to one channel or another.
  • Make sure that your volume is turned up on your headset.
  • Test within the game and let us know how the sound is.

Please check the communications setting.

Open the sound control panel (right click on the speaker icon and choose recording devices, playback devices, or sounds, they all go to the same control panel)

Click the Communications tab.

If it isn't set to "Do nothing" change the setting to that and let us know if it helps.

Late Response

I tried returning my settings to normal the other day and the issue still seemed to persist. So I decided to just unplug my headset and plug it back in and that seemed to do the trick.

Thanks for letting us know the resolution Barry. It sounds like it USB headset then? If so I would imagine plugging it back in (possibly on a different port?) resolved the issue by reinstalling the driver and possibly resetting some configs.

Marking the ticket as resolved.

    • jelly3384's application for Enlistment Form Questions Name you wish to use and Age: (Our unit uses realistic names, this does not have to be your real name) Pigeon, 16 Platform Type Epic Games Store Steam ID (Use 17 Digit SteamID 64 / PC Game Pass Account Username): Pigeon_theft   Do you have a microphone? Yes   Which game title are you applying for? Hell Let Loose   If you've selected Hell Let Loose, do you understand that this game is currently not cross platform capable and only PC players currently may apply? ( Steam or PC Game Pass) Yes   Why do you wish to join the 1st Marine Raiders? I've played BFV and milsimed in it, and it was a lot more fun when I milsimed. and I enjoy playing HLL, so I think it is going to be more fun when I join.   Did any of our current members play a part in you enlisting? If so, who? If none, how did you learn about us: I found you guys from a website called disboard when looking for HLL milsim groups to join.   This unit offers more than just a place to play games with each other, do you have any online skills you think would be useful? no   Do you have any Leadership experience that you think will be helpful? I'm not sure if it will be helpfull,but I used to be in BFV milsim groups and in my last one I got to [E-7] out of [E-1] to [O-8], so I was a NCO and I helped the officers with whatever they needed doing, weather it was assisting with training, settling disputes or helping them decide what was appropriate disciplinary action. And when we were in combat I was usually assigned to lead my own squad.   Have you ever been in a realism unit before, and if so, which unit was it? yes. I was in quite a few BFV milsim groups, although I was only in one at any given time. unfortunately, I have left the discord servers and I do not remember the names of them. if you would like, I could probably give a reference to someone who was an officer in most of the groups I was in.   By posting this Enlistment form, I acknowledge the instructions completely, declare that I am 16 years old or older, and agree that I have and will follow server and unit rules maturely and respectfully or face immediate rejection.
