November 12, 200421 yr Ramon, imo there is no BEST soundset. There are a number of free soundsets you can dowload and why don't you try them out and figure out which one you like the most. Sound is such a subjective thing that what I find good you might think is bad.
November 12, 200421 yr Whoa! Now that`s what i call 737 SOUND! Been missing the characteristic whoooom sound since the day she was released.... Excellent topic guys!RgdsKevin
November 13, 200421 yr There is certainly a difference but, to my jadded ears, no improvement over the original. Still doesn't measure up to my experience in a real 737 or that from DVDs of 737 flights. For me the search for something better than the original soundset goes on.Bruce Bruce Bartlett Frodo: "I wish none of this had happened."

November 13, 200421 yr I tried these as well and switched back to the default sound. What I did though was keep the 'wind' file from the newly released package. The newer wind file with the default PMDG sounds is great IMO.....Eric
November 13, 200421 yr I downloaded this sound set, but the files are too large, IMO. I don't know if I can compress them, but I shouldn't have to.There's only a couple of sounds I wish were better, and those are the ground roll, engine whine, and perhaps some rumble from the engines as well. Just a little more noise and wind. The problem is, I like the ground roll from PMDG, except it doesn't have the rattle sounds you hear. This sound set doesn't have enough tire roll with the rattle. Also, how do you know what sounds to rename to what? The PMDG sounds have a different name for their wavs. The engine sounds would have to be renamed properly or the sounds would be off.Another thing about these sound besides the compression. Why did they include an overspeed that sounds like a McDonnell Douglas one? And why a stall horn that sounds like the overspeed PMDG included. I tend to think the overspeed from PMDG is the right sound. The AP disconnect is wrong too. PMDGs is much more like the real thing. - Chris Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX | Intel Core i9 13900KF | Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB | 64GB DDR5 SDRAM | Corsair H100i Elite 240mm Liquid Cooling | 1TB & 2TB Samsung Gen 4 SSD | 1000 Watt Gold PSU | Windows 11 Pro | Thrustmaster Boeing Yoke | Thrustmaster TCA Captain X Airbus | Asus ROG 38" 4k IPS Monitor (PG38UQ) Asus Maximus VII Hero motherboard | Intel i7 4790k CPU | MSI GTX 970 4 GB video card | Corsair DDR3 2133 32GB SDRAM | Corsair H50 water cooler | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD (2) | EVGA 1000 watt PSU - Retired
November 13, 200421 yr yea... you gotta mix and match to get the best. Search for "ground roll" in the library and you'll also get some alternative set for ground roll sounds. They're much better.
November 13, 200421 yr I tried the sound. It's the best 737 engine sound I have heard so far. Combined with the cockpit sounds of PMDG, it makes a great PMDG 737 experience. The only sound that PMDG did better are the taxi engine sounds.Dirk
