Another question about sounds

I was trying to create an engine and exhaust sound mod in fmod studio, but as soon as I added the autopich effect to the rpm parameter the quality of the sound decreased. You could tell the difference by switching between the timeline and rpm parameters. I idle sound was much more clear and realistic sounding as well as the rest of the rev range on the timeline parameter. But on the rpm parameter the idle was not as clear and realistic sounding as well as the rest of the rpm range. (It sort of sounded like what old engine sound mods sounded like using sbeam) I was using an acceleration and deceleration sample from a Peugeot that came with Le sound Audiomotors. And if I wanted to mod the sounds that got exported with an automation car I created (muffled and unmuffled, exhaust size, quality, etc, that I exported with the car the I created) So If I have, lets say a V8 that I exported one car with a reverse flow muffler and one without a muffler, would I be able to blend those two file together to have dynamic muffling in fmod studio? Is that possible yet? If so how would I go about doing so? If I decide to do the same thing with the exhaust diameter (0.50in and 8.0in V8 samples) and quality (-15 and +15 V8 samples) would that end up being something that's beyond my ability if there needed to be changes to the jbeam structure of any other files to add new parameters for that? And lastly this one a question that has to do with fmod studio.. Is it possible get the new V8, I4, B4 and V10 exhaust sounds to sound a little more like the old (0.10) ones? I am asking this because I the way the old ().10) I4, B4,and V10 sound compared to the new ones. The new ones tend to sound thinner and not as full and not as good in the higher rpm ranges as the 0.10 sounds even when fully unmuffled. And is anything going to be done with all those extra sounds in the (0.10) V6 folder?

 

Thanks it makes sense. And what is the purpose of the ENG_INT and the unmuffled and broken exhaust sound files within the version 0.10 V6 folder? And is it possible to get al those other sounds in there working in game?
And why does the version 0.10 I4 exhaust sound, sound a little different than the I4_2_exhaust sound?
And is it possible to give the engine and exhaust (in the engine audio debug app and in the engine.jbeam file) more bass without it sounding muffled?
Is it possible to make the engine/ exhaust sound smoother or rougher during idle (I know about idleRPMRoughness already) and acceleration?
Last but not least, When will you start doing your own recordings and will wee be able to have open header sounds since when you remove the exhaust completely from any of the vehicles you have open headers?
How does sonory make all of those engine and exhaust sounds? And how come sonory is password protected now but wasn't a few years ago?
Why can you only get a range of -30-30 with the low and high gaines and the high and low widths in the engine audio debug app? And is it possible to get the sound to get lower than -30 and above 30?
Sorry about all the questions. I just had A lot of things I wanted to ask.

 

Would it be easier to process/answer them one at a time?

 

I tend to get the same way sometimes

 

And I'm not expecting you to answer all of the questions in one go. It's a lot of questions. You can answer them at your own pace

 

Would it still be possible for you to answer the questions but NOT in one go? Like just keeping your focus on one of the questions at a time?

 

Thanks this does help a lot. As far as V0.10, the sounds are still in the game. I actually have used them in combination with the current engine sounds. So, like I6_2_engine and L6. So, you know how when you increase the lowShelfGain with the lowShelfFreq at about 300 and it gets more bassy but it sounds more muffled and not as clear? That is what I am referring to when I say muffled. And will we be getting any new engine sounds in the future. (not at this moment)

s it possible to make the engine/ exhaust sound smoother or rougher during idle (I know about idleRPMRoughness already) and acceleration? - Not at the moment, and there are no current plans to
Any future plans though? And will there ever be any realistic type of intake/exhaust drone?
--- Post updated ---
And one more thing. With the Engine Audio Debug how would I "simulate" a bigger/smaller exhaust diameter. Would it be possible to have the I3 exhaust sound playing on top of the I6_2_exhaust sound instead of outright replacing it? The file is below with the soundConfigExhaust already in there. Are there any adjustments I need to make to the sound soundConfigExhaust or sampleName or does it require advanced modding?

 

Can you help me with this please?

 

Thanks that helped. How come when I change the fundamentalFrequencyCylinderCount for the soundConfig note it changes, but when I do it for the soundConfigExhaust happens. (I have attached a video to chow you) What is eqFundamentWidth? I tried it and could not get anything to happen. (I saw it listed in the sound section of the wiki) What does max/minLoadMix do? And why does the 0.10 I4 sound different then I4_2_exhaust? Is it just equalized different or is there more to it? I think that's all the questions I got.

 

Did you check to mp4 file I uploaded? What does eqFundamentWidth do? When we are able to use FMOD Bank files for sound mods, how would we get engine sounds from besides recording them?

 

where can I buy and get free engine sound samples? Is the V8 (not V8_2) sound from 0.10 an engine or exhaust sound? I had a hard time trying to figure it out? And Check out the mp4 file I uploaded it should give you an example of what I mean about the fundamentalCylinderCount. Why didn't you guys use all of the sounds in the 0.10 V6 folder. I just made a blend file for all of them and they all sound really good!

 

Hijacking this thread for a related question: can I commission a company like Sonory to make me a inline five (and possibly V10?) that sounds like a F1 engine? Not going to be cheap at all but one can dream, haha.
