Have been blown away by the various Beta videos but have a query for the masses on the cockpit engine noise post 55% N1. Based on my considerable experiences at the front end of the cabins, the start up, low rev and engine sounds to 55% are just incredible! However, the engine sounds after 55% are not in line with my experiences, albeit not in the cockpit. Loads of videos on YouTube of real life 772LR with good examples. Just wondered what your thoughts were? It may be the YouTube beta videos on my iPad dont do the sounds justice? Any flight crew with comments on real experience?

I think you should wait until it's installed on your pc to make such a comment.

Bingo.

...oh, I dunno.  The entire Tech Team?

God, it's not even released yet and the questions:"is this real" "is that real" is allready starting.

 

Just look at it like that: they've spend 18 months making it as real as possible. So to answer your question: yes, it's real!

they have mentioned it in hundred of video previews that youtube also effects the sound when its recorded and uploaded and doesnt show the true sound to the sound the person will hear on their own pc.

 

at least wait til it released before questioning this and that

Calm down they guy is only asking whether the sound with this level is realistic? I mean do they hear this much of sound inside the cockpit?

 

From my experience, i have been in an airbus a330 and 320's alot

 

Sounds are so quite and u barely hear the engine start, while the massive RR in the 330 have a good effect on take off roll , so i guess the massive GE on the 777 are so high to the point u hear them in the cockpit the way PMDG gives it to i

I always thought it was just Ryan blowing into a microphone. And because he's the best at it, they made him learn to make other noises.

Could just be me, though...

As much as I've enoyed all the videos (and thanks again to all the beta testers), I suspect the videos we've seen so far don't do true justice to the visual and audio experience of flying this bird. I doubt we will be disappointed. Knowing PMDG's zeal for accuracy, I suspect the cockpit experience will be bang on. If you fly the 737NGX, notice the difference in engine noise between the -600 and the -900. In the -900, the engines are much quieter because the engines are farther back from the cockpit.

I think what he's talking about is the GE90 growl at takeoff power VS the GE90 whine at takeoff power. I know in most YouTube videos the whine is most prominent but from the PMDG 777 videos, it's the growl that's most prominent.

 Obviously nothing can be said as it's not released yet, duhhhhhh! I'm sure it does sound 100% accurate, we just have to hear it first hand

Perfectly well put Jesse, better than I managed to in my original post! Yes "growl" vs "whine" covers the point exactly. The reason I asked if any flight crew out there could comment is that I can only compare with cabin environment and maybe only the "growl" can be heard in the cockpit?

 

I find the childish comments quite funny, pity the posts can't be read objectively, however, clearly plenty passion out there for PMDG and the 777!

 

Well done Jesse and moekarout for reading the post in the context it was written!

Gday

It was a question I was going to ask , so plus one Gary

The entire tech team has experience, so about as realistic as currently possible.
