Better sound file for the 737NG?

Featured Replies

Hello,I'm not sure if anyone who has been in a 737 realized, but they have a unique 'BARRRRRRRR' like sound during take off and clb stages... The stock soundset from PMDG doesnt really have this... so I was just curious if anyone has a link to something they can reccomend which resembles more of a 737NG engine :)you can hear it on this one for example...

cfm56-7v4.zip in the AVSIM library has the buzz sound you mention, make sure you download all the updates. Hope this helps.Marc Beck

ok, figured it out... go to PMDG 737-700 folder, and rename the sound folder to sound_2 then put in the sound folder you just downloaded into there, and all set :)

Every users of NG should have this sound. Is amazing!!!

Nice video. Was the Frankfurt landing utilising 'AES'?If so, I'm getting it.

Are you saying to place the downloaded cfm56-7v4 sound file into the PMDG737-700 folder? I did this, and am now getting CTD's

Jim, rename the original file to say "sound.org".Unzip the new sound to the 737NG Aircraft folder. Check the new file for the 'sound.cfg. file is there because that is what pionts the sim to the sounds that your using. Works for me. ;-)
